In the following days, Carlos took Micaela with him everywhere, and she opened her mouth from time to time to bite him, but always stopped when she was about to do so, and no one could get close to her except Carlos and Yerma….
Carlos took good care of her, she ate, slept, bathed, all by himself, he already liked taking care of her, and now even more, and at night when he slept she was his favorite, because the girl instinctively moved into his arms and hugged him, like countless nights before….
Cats are clingy, and so is his kitty, and after a few days of getting along, she has even moved to actively sitting on his lap, rubbing against his chest, and completely ignoring the eyes of others….
This, Carlos said he liked, and he had the bad taste to go buy a cat teether, a little leather ball, to tease her in bed at night, to see her happy, and he was…. him too.
But he knew that the girl could not go on like that, he contacted Thiago, he contacted the best biologists in the world, all the trustworthy characters came to Salamonsa just to solve Salamonsa’s current state, and let the girl recover….
It’s just that it’s very strange that after that rainy day, the cat bites decreased drastically, mind you, that day there were hundreds of cats in that open field that had not been caught, they were extremely aggressive and totally took the initiative to attack humans even when they did not mess with them, and now suddenly they are docile, why is it?….
-Mom…
Mike’s excited voice interrupted Carlos’s thoughts….
Mike knew as soon as he got off the bus that this was his mother’s house, and he shouted several times in a row with excitement…
Carlos thought that the girl loved Mike so much that seeing him would more or less move her, so he specially arranged for her to come….
True to form, the girl heard Mike’s voice and immediately dropped her favorite yellow ball and turned to look….
Mike is already walking nicely and, with an angelic smile on his face, runs towards Micaela on his short legs….
Micaela pounced on him, squatted down, opened her arms and hugged him, instantly tears were running down her face, the expression on her face was complicated, even with the slightest hint of pain, but she still couldn’t say a single word….
Carlos looked disconsolate and went over to hug mother and son….
The phone in his pocket a, releasing them and pulling it out, it was Nilson, picking up the phone, his voice came through:
-Not even close, do you think it’s okay for today?
Now all of Salamonsa is on a crusade against him and the girl, saying that the cat is the way it is because of them, and besides, Echave City never formed the ‘Cat Extermination Corps’, could it be possible that all this has something to do with Echave City…?
Carlos answers without much enthusiasm:
-It’s about time, I’m on my way.
He hung up the phone and looked to Mike for orders:
-Stay home with mom.
Mike nods vigorously and answers loudly.
-Yes!
Carlos again explains that Yerma is taking care of mother and son, before grabbing his coat and leaving with Diego.
This time it was all day.
After all those days, Carlos never withdrew the comments attacking him and the girl, and made it known that there would be a videoconference at 4:00 p. m. to set the record straight.
All Salamonsa was on everyone’s lips, what could be true in all this?
Everyone who stayed at home was glued to the TV waiting for the supposed launch.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, the conference started punctually, the place chosen was a conference room of the town hall, due to the special situation that was being experienced now, the journalists who came to the place were very few, one by one, they were all wary of the people around them in case they were going to be bitten by cats or not….
In the solemn conference room, Nilson, Nicolas are in Carlos sitting in the middle of the two, handsome face is the usual cool, not at all bothered by the gossip in general, looking at the camera, and speak explosive conclusions:
-Salamonsa cat accident, was man-made.
