#intimidated?

“Me?” It takes Lincoln a few seconds to process anything once the stranger finishes his last sentence, not having expected to see the very ‘Western’ face that he did once the door opened; he was told ( by a mutual friend ) that someone would be stopping by, but nothing past that. “Uh.. Oh, yeah! Me. Right. That person is me.” He mentally kicked himself for tripping up so badly and ultimately just rubbed a hand over his face as he willed the embarrassment away with some muttering. “Yeah, whatever, she’s over here..”

The male was going purely off a recommendation from someone else that he wasn’t letting a serial killer in, so admittedly he was a bit jittery, and couldn’t help but stare a little. “So, she’s been really.. depressed, or something. I feel like she’s been moping around more than anything.” After letting.. fuck, he couldn’t remember the guy’s name. After letting in the person and closing the door behind him, Lincoln walked over to the living room to pick up the very inactive tortoiseshell. “I mean, I know cats are pretty calm, but she’s been.. I don’t know, different? I just feel like something’s wrong, especially since she’s not eating as much. Does any of that make sense?”

A better question would be: Do you really know as much about animals as Christian says you do, because I don’t want to have let some stranger into my apartment for no reason.

The awkwardness was easy to pick up and it was understandable why. Apparently they were skipping introductions, but Nico went along with it for the sake of the issue. “How long has she been acting like that?” Conclusions were already being made based off the basic information: those would have to wait until he asked more questions.

    “Let me see her.” He took the liberty of carefully taking the cat away to look her over.

Nico wasn’t a vet by any means, but he had knew all about smaller issues and the things to look out for to recommend pet owners to the professionals. Right now the cat had dug her claws into his sweatshirt and was eyeing one of the hoodie strings: more playful now that there was activity. To be safe, he leaned his head away as he checked her ears.

“How often do you play with her?”

what are you.

Oo, maganda sya, sexy at mayaman. At ako, kabaliktaran nya. Pero duh, maganda ako no, nakalamang lang sya ng ilang ligo sakin. HAHAHA. Pero srsly, kahit na sinabihan pa ko ng "Oo, makipag kita ka sakanya, para mainsecure ka naman sa kasexihan nya." Still, hindi pa din ako na intimidate dun. Di ako nakaramdam ng kahit anong insecurity. Kasi ako ito eh, at i have my own edge.

Kahit na nung nagpunta kami dun eh, muka rin akong promdi, dahil nakapantalon ako, samantalang sya kahit taga probinsya talaga, eh mas nag muka pang taga-Maynila... 

Kahit na lahat ng tao na nakakasalabong namin, tumitingin sakanya. 

Wala akong pakialam. Kasi hindi naman un nakakaintimidate eh, mas nakakaintimidate pa ung part na, May tatay sya. 

Na sabik sa kanya

Na inaalala sya

Na nakikita nya

Na nararamdaman nya 

Na kinakausap sya 

Na handang gumastos ng ilang libo para sakanya

Na laging nagtatanong kung anung kailangan mo, anong gusto mo
