Making her place in Laila's couch Cornal seemed like a child, missing his home. *Puuuurrrrr* she opened her eyes to look at the cat, Cornal jumped in amazement. "you've grown so much" she exclaimed in happiness, "yeah and heavy and lazy" Laila said chuckling making abbey meow at her.

"Oh nooo the lady is offended" said Cornal making abbey jump out of her hands making both of them giggle. Abbey meowed back which made Laila pick her up and console her "you're not fat, you're cute" making abbey puurr in her hands, both of them giggled. "I know this all isn't easy, but you should get over it" Cornal said looking at Laila, words are for explanation Laila had no explanation to do. She was out of words and could find any courage to gather some up to. She had the tears loop stuck in her throat again, putting abbey down she walked into her room and closed the door behind it.

The strongest of all is the weakest of all, she couldn't digest the fact that Laila was crying while she was there, maybe there is something going on Laila isn't talking about, maybe she will eventually! Cornal mind was at chaotic anxiety rush. getting of the bed Cornal walked towards the kitchen opening Laila's fridge she saw bunch of chocolates and sweets, giggling to herself she picked on chocolate and started eating it.
