Hours passed yet the boy was still crying, wasting his time and tears on regretting past events, he wanted to move on but he could not, he was too depressed.
The night went by with a cry all while the clouds started rising to the sky.
And of course, after some time, someone finally passed by the cry baby while having a cigarette in his mouth and holding a bag with groceries. He looked quite dumbfound.
"Eyy dude, yo'kay ?"
The boy looked in his direction, wind blowing down his face and waving his shirt like it was a flag, hair covering the most of the face and teary eyes.
"Eh ? I'm okay, I just had bad luck."
"Com'on, what happened?"
"..." he hesitated but eventually he gave up "I got robbed."
"Aww man, this ain't good, need a hand ?"
"I don't have any money."
"Dude, It's not about money, co'mere fam, I can at least walk you home."
If only I would've known the adress from that appartment, my home is so far..
"It's at least 4 hours away by car."
"Eeh, this ain't good, this dude you're seeing has no car."
"Thought so, too bad."
"Nah, don't worry dude, you look like a nice guy, you can stay at my place for a few days."
"What about your family ?"
"I live alone, used to live with my girlfriend but she dumped me so... yeah"
"If you're really sure about it.."
"Trust me dude, it's quite sad when I get home and there's nobody I can watch tv and eat snacks with."
"Okay, what's your name."
"Just call me Kord."
The boy slowly rised up and followed Kord, like always, he was hesitant following a stranger but he had no other choice. He did not want to sleep in an alley again.
They walked about 20 minutes, Kord bought vegetables seemingly at random while talking with the depressed boy about food, they both seemed to like food a lot,

"Okay, here it is, it's not a big place but you'll get used to it eventually."
"Don't worry, I'm good, by the way, what's the password for internet ?"
"I thought you were robb-, Nevermind" Kord noticed that the boy was holding a cheap looking phone that felt like it was at least 8 years old, it would make you wonder if you could even browse the internet on it.
"This ? It's quite funny actually, the thieves thought it was garbage so they just ignored it."
"Yeah, the pass is 'GEcatgirl' ". Kord felt quite proud of that password.
"Nice, what does 'GE' stands for ?"
"Heh, Genetically engineered~" he said with a smile.
"..."
"What ?"
"Nothing."
Kord was quite pissed but he learned to accept people's oppinion, even if he was insulting the very existence of catgirls.
'I've never thought about it, cat ears huh, I have to try it.' he said while searching for catgirls pictures on boogle.
"Whoa, you can actually look at pictures on that phone, also nice choice."
"That's the most this phone can do, it's already burning hot just by searching something on boogle."
"You know, if it's just browsing on the internet, you can use my computer, but don't search my history okay ? "
"Yep, thanks."
"No prob, fam"
And so, the boy started searching if he can simulate animal fur with his body, he could generate infinite wool, precious. He started trying to make wolf ears, on his head, of course, he failed and it was looking like he had a horn made of skin.
'Tmp , Tmp' he started hearing footsteps from behind the door.
"How'ya doin' fam, wanna eat someth- the hell is on your head"
"Umm, just an allergy."
"Yah right, like I'm dumb enough to believe that, I ain't a fool dude."
"Okay, I can modify my body to make myself taller or my face to look like someone else, it all started months ago when I realised that I can do much more than just making my fingers longer in order to eat the last chips in a bag of chips, but it turned out I still need calcium or other substances in order to make changes so it's not totally free, i need lots of food if I want to make myself a giant, but today I tried to give myself some 'accesories' when I heard about cat ears, I always liked wolfs you'know, but you had to open that damn door before I could revert the changes and hide everything, come one dude... Well I kind of wanted to talk about this with someone so I guess it's fine."
"!! - What ? "
"Exactly what you heard."
"Okay then, first of all, make those horns or whatever they are disappear, it's disgusting dude, they look like they're about to fall off."
"Hell no, I need those nutrients, it ain't going to fall anywhere."
"Umm, okay."
The boy carefully made those horns smaller and smaller until it was like they never existed.
"Oh so you were not lying."
"Kinda. It's a complicated process though, you need to learn a lotta biology to understand what's happening internally."
"So can you make yourself look like a red haired high-race loli vampire princess with burning eyes ? I'd like to see that."
"Whoa, I've never thought about that, but a vampire huh ? I think it would be possible, making my teeth long and pointy like a vampire's seems way easier than making myself some wolf ears."
"Who cares about wolf ears, cat ears are better anyways." said Kord while thinking 'flat is justice'.
"I guess." The boy was quite neutral about this one, they looked similar anyway.
"We'll talk more about this later, I'm quite curious, but now, let's eat something."
"Yeah".
And so, the boy got to taste some fried vegetables with boiled potatoes, they had up to no taste but it was fine, it was way better than begging for food,
"Thanks for the food" said the boy while leaving the kitchen.
"The hell you think you're doing ? You see those dishes right ?"
"Oh.."
"Yup, go ahead."
10 minutes of washing the dishes later.
"Finally, this felt like ages." This young boy hated to wash the dishes, it was both boring and time consuming, worst thing to do.
"Ey fam, glad to see you're done, I have a request."
"Hmm ?"
