It was another sunny day at the Court of Fontaine, with stacks of paperworks and letters tidily laying on top of Monsieur Neuvillette’s desk, while his beloved red cat lady was writing a new song on the couch in his office. His hand takes the letters and reads each one with careful focus, stamp here, sign there, all totally formal letters from the fontanian. Some need a new agreement to open their business, the others need permission to trade for items. Just like all day every day, until his eyes land on a letter that is slightly simpler than the rest.
There’s no seal, no official seal on it, just a wax seal covering dried rose and lily on the top of the letter. Neuvillette takes it and open the seal before reading the letter,
After finishing reading the letter, Neuvillette picks two pictures attached to the letter. One is a wedding themed picture with a pair of sweet bride and slightly shy groom beside her, they look at the camera with huge smiles on their faces and cheeks covered with tears for the groom, he’s a crybaby it seems. Then the second picture is a newborn baby girl and the same man and woman smiling on each side of the baby, a happy family. He then smiles so very slightly which makes Sara’s ears perk.
“What is it Neuvi? Something fascinating?” She raises from her seat and walks towards his desk, with a swish of her tail, curiosity. Neuvillette hand Sara the letter and let her read it on her own as well as the pictures attached to it. Sara reads the letter with all kinds of emotions, sometimes her ears twitch, then her tail swish fast, then her ears drop slightly as well.

“OH MY GOODNESS?! THEY’RE GETTING MARRIED? WITH A BABY?!” Sara voice rise like a energetic melody, she nuzzle on Neuvillette’s arm,
“Neuviiii let’s send them something!! Like baby clothes? Or congratulations for their wedding? What do you think?”
“Mn, you can do as you please, Miss Sara. Please tell Miss Sedene for the details, I’ll check on it personally after it’s ready.”
“Really?! Okayyy!” Sara almost trips on her sprint to the door, before Neuvillette calls her back once,
“Sara, come here first.”
“Hm? What else Neuvi?” Sara returns her feet towards Neuvillette again and tilt her head.
Neuvillette then stands up, caresses Sara’s cheek, before kissing her lips gently, only once before he looks at her and rubs her cheek once more. Sara? Well, she just stop responding and turn into a red cat literally and figuratively because of that kiss.
“NEUVIIII!!!”
“I love you too, Mon cher.”
