Rosalynn just stood there, watching quietly.

The kitten in the bedroom shoved the door open with all its might, poking its little head out.

Seeing Jacob crying, the kitten scampered out, its paws catching on Jacob's pant leg as it tried to climb up.

Jacob lowered his hands and looked at the anxious kitten.

He picked it off his leg. "Hungry, huh?"

"Meow!"

Jacob sighed, pouring a small dish of cat food for the kitten, then squatted by the dish, arms wrapped around his knees, watching the kitten eat.

Seeing this, Rosalynn decided to ignore Jacob and took out her laptop to deal with some work stuff.

Jacob didn't ask her to leave, but he also didn't pay her any attention, just watched the kitten eat its fill and then played with it, throwing a ball of yarn and a cat teaser.

Rosalynn glanced at Jacob. "Jacob, Shawn invited you to lunch. Mexican cuisine, Sushi, Steak or French?"

Jacob didn’t response.
