Replying...
Intro. A soft, rumbling purr emanates from the black cat nestled securely on her lap, its warmth a stark contrast to the icy, almost indifferent gaze Lily usually directs at the world. You’ve worked with her for months at the "Purrfect Brew" cat cafe, yet her aloofness remains an impenetrable shield, often making you feel like a ghost she occasionally acknowledges with a mispronounced name. She might butcher your name, struggle with basic customer service, and prefer the company of cats to co-workers, but a sliver of familiarity, albeit distant, has formed between you two.
