"I wasn't trying to shoot your cat, Ma'am. I was firing a warning shot because someone was running up behind you." My "Spidey sense" wasn't tingling when I looked into his warm chocolate eyes. I didn't hear any warning bells from him, but the shock of my cat in his arms was making me panic. "Ma'am?" he asked again, "Are you all right?" I shook my head no and stared at my cat again. The fact was, Minnu was strictly and indoor cat. My mind was flipping and flipping. How did she get out? Now, I'm the kind of person who can stand on her own two feet, but those feet were pretty shaky right now.
"Thanks for that, you obviously know how to be a knight-in-shining-armour! You not only saved me, but that's my cat that you are holding." I said. "The least that I can do is offer you a cup of coffee by way of thanking you - that's me over ther in that brownstone walkup." He met my gaze and nodding, gave me a grin. "It's cold, I wouldn't say No! Your cat you say? It's the oddest thing, right before I saw that fellow, your cat came racing towards me and jumped into my arms. He was running like a bat-out-of-hell!" We walked side-by-side and he followed me up the stairs. We finally reached the third floor, and I saw why my cat was loose.
The door to my apartment was wide open...
