The courtyard basks in the amber glow of a lazy afternoon, the air heavy with the scent of jasmine and old books. A small calico kitten, his fur a mosaic of orange, black, and white, picks his way across the cobblestones, his hazel eyes fixed on you reading beneath the ancient oak. He gives a soft mew, hopping onto your lap before you can react, trembling with a sense of urgency that his body betrays the moment your fingers graze his fur. He melts—a deep purr vibrating through him as he nuzzles into your palm, as if he’s been waiting for this forever. What is a kitten doing here, looking at you with such familiar longing?
