Looking at the girl in front of him with an innocent and somewhat twisted face, but trying to make noise, Carlos instantly softened….
Micaela tries to pull away from the big hand on her face, but Carlos doesn’t move, his thumb gently rubbing the place he just pinched, with a slightly sad tone.
-Girl, as nice as it is that you’re a cat, I’d rather you were the girl who can talk to me, call me by my name and tell me you love me…..
The woman was still looking at him with a puzzled expression….
Carlos whispered as he pressed his forehead against hers, repressing the loss that arose inside him:
-It’s okay, take your time, even if it’s like this for the rest of your life, I still love you.
Then Carlos took her out of the bathtub, cleaned her and changed her clothes, the woman’s face was flushed all the time….
Carlos took several deep breaths before taking her to dry her hair.
Blow-dried this project, really put Carlos tortured enough, the hair dryer rattled, the kitten jumped away in fear, how to persuade are not willing, Carlos had to settle for the second best take a towel to half-dried hair, and then bring the box of medicine, to her face small wounds disinfection.
It was more acceptable than a blow-drying and, after a few ineffective protests, the kitty let Carlos do it….
These fine wounds, it must be last night on that side of the barren meadow was cut by those of a tall weedy person, did not hurt the dermis, with ointment, will not leave scars, but Carlos still heartbroken …
After healing the wound on his face, Carlos rests his foot on his knee and looks down to heal the wound on his left foot, the shoe must have fallen off recently, and the wound on the foot is not serious …
Carlos carefully disinfected himself, put on the ointment, looked up, the girl had long, slightly wet hair, and her large, clear eyes looked at him expressionless, with a faint tear in her eye, she looked pathetic….
With a flutter in his heart, Carlos bent down, clasped her in his arms and kissed her….
The girl was still supple, but she merely gritted her teeth and struggled to turn her head away again when he went to probe her….
Carlos, a little exasperated, grabbed her chin and turned her to continue when there was a knock at the door.
-Carlos, Moya, come down to dinner.
It was Yerma who, by chance, also went upstairs to call them to come down for dinner.
Carlos answered, remembering the noises coming from the girl’s stomach as he bathed her, and rubbed her head in frustration, making her get up and about to leave, heading for the door and reaching for it, only for her to pull back.
Carlos turned unconsciously, only to see the girl looking down at the clothes on her body, biting her lip….
Carlos looked down, the clothes she was wearing were also soaked from the rain and from re-bathing her, her black shirt clinging to her skin….
He understood instantly, the girl’s move was for him to change clothes too….
Warmth rose in Carlos’ heart, knowing how to feel for him even though she herself was a cat in his conscience….
The corners of her lips turned up in a slight smile as Carlos took her by the hand and turned towards the closet, placing her hand on his chest and looking down at her, his voice muffled for a few moments.
-Help me change….
The woman looked at him uncertainly…..
Carlos, undeterred and knowing that Cat did not have the skill, taught her by hand, undoing one button at a time….
The woman learned in a moment, sketching a smile and offering to unbutton the rest of hers, looking over her shoulder at him, reaching around behind him and taking off her shirt, letting it fall to the floor, a certain Cat who learned a lot remembered something and immediately reached into his pants, which Carlos was quick to grab.
-Micaela, it’s all right, I’ll do it myself…..
Everyone downstairs was waiting for them to eat, and he could not promise what he would do if the girl gave him away….
Changing and going downstairs, Yerma, Nilson, Nicolas and the servants of the house watched the image of them approaching holding hands, and for a moment they thought, the original Moya was back, she looked the same as always, but sitting at the table, seeing her double gesture at the fish on the table as soon as she arrived, they all knew it was just a sensation….
Carlos usually takes care of the girl’s food, this time, more carefully than before, because she does not know how to use the chopsticks, and even unconsciously lowers her head towards the bowl to drink the soup, which is stopped by Carlos….
Yerma could not help wiping away her tears at the sight of her daughter, and Nicolas and Nilson were overcome with sadness….
Carlos patiently taught her how to use the spoon and chopsticks, fortunately she learned very quickly and was soon able to eat on her own. Carlos removed the fish from her bones and put it in the bowl, she looked at Carlos excitedly….
Watching them interact, everyone was slightly relieved and grateful that they didn’t have to eat the cat food, as Carlos had just said….
The cell phone in Yerma’s pocket rang, she pulled it out and stood up hurriedly, stepping aside.
Nicolas watched her back and frowned.
True to his style, not long after, Yerma walked over, with a chagrined expression, and looked at Carlos, who was feeding Moya and carefully wiping the corners of his lips, for a while, and said:
-Moya’s status as leader of the city eliminated….
Carlos’ movements stopped, and the expression on his face as he looked at the girl in front of him was different….
Yerma continued:
-I don’t know who revealed that Moya had been bitten by a cat, but the Council of Elders unanimously decided that Moya didn’t have what it took to lead Echave City, and gave the position of Senior City Master to Jeronimo….
Nilson and Nicolas looked at each other and guessed the outcome.
The Council of Elders is specialized in the succession and evaluation of the position of Lord of the City, and is not under the control of the motley Mr. Nilson, or even Nicolas, and it is normal that Moya, in her current situation, should be removed….
Carlos put down the bowl he was holding and, seeing that the girl was still looking at the fish, offered her another piece of fish, pulling out the bones as he did so:
-Uncle Junior became the head of the town without thinking at all about becoming the head of the town, or the current situation, it is also considered to be in danger It’s good, it’s good that Micaela doesn’t become the head of the town anymore, she can rest at home, always, the position of the head of the town is still in the Echave family .
Yerma nodded, she had long thought that if Moya was to leave Salamonsa in the future, that position of Lord Nilson would have to be ceded sooner or later, she just hadn’t thought that it would be in such circumstances….
Micaela’s phone also rings and Yerma takes it out and hands it to Carlos.
The number on the screen was Thiago’s, and in Salamonsa he could only use the girl’s cell phone, except that, going forward, the removal of the position of City Lord meant that his right to contact the outside world would also be taken away….
Carlos asked, looking at Nilson:
-The cell phone to contact the outside, can you let us have it?
Nilson nodded, this was something he could still do.
Carlos then clicked on the message.
-Mr. Aguayo, don’t kiss her, the rabies virus is transmitted by saliva.
Carlos looks at the girl next to him with a spoon, happily eating fish, so, she doesn’t let him kiss, she knows it too, she’s protecting him….
