It's the seventh day... Rollo was losing hope. The once determination he had to find that special someone was fading. He'd just be happy with anyone at this point. Yet why does he keep fending others away? The box he was in was becoming more tainted. His blanket full of holes. His body looking a tad dirty and scraped. He was shivering...Even the Bazaar caught onto the thief and are more aware of his presence.
Rollo wondered why fate was cruel to him? Was it because of his attitude? He didn't want to think negatively...he tried looking once more out into the crowd. Unlike most days the crowd was thin. Each one that walked by was more or less ignoring him...
Then he saw someone.
A dress red like a strawberry. Black Hair against her very dark skin and horns. Yet her light purple umbral eyes were like his own bright green eyes. The Au ra that caught his eyes...he felt like this was the true one! But he was tired and exhausted. The crowd would probably drown him out...but he made an effort. With one last cry, Rollo meowed as loud as he could to get her attention...then he had to sit. His legs trembling in weakness...
But she stopped.Â
The Au Ra woman looked in his direction. She approached the box and spotted Rollo. "...Huh? What are you doing in a box?" her voice was monotone but Rollo could feel from it that she was curious like he was. Rollo tried meowing but softer...
"You poor thing. The lack of proper nutrition...scars and dirt. You have not been taking care of yourself?" She clearly had no idea what he had to do to survive. Yet she seemed concerned. She carefully ran her fingers along his tail, feeling a wound that she quickly patched with her own kind of bandage. "There. That should help." The Au Ra woman looked to her left and right before reaching a hand down to pat his head. Rollo was shaking, almost ready to claw at her.
The woman's hand rest on his head ever so gently and ran through his fur. Even if he couldn't feel her skin, Rollo knew full well that his time waiting was coming to an end. The woman then picked Rollo up out of the box and in the air to examine him....

"Well it's not right to leave someone so defenseless in a place like this. I guess I should find you a home...but for now, would you like to come with me?" the Au Ra asked.
Rollo happily mewed. This woman saw Rollo not as a pet but as a living being. Exactly what he wanted.

And on that day, Rollo found his home.
