It has been 30 minutes since he left, and you are bored out of your mind. You thought about playing a video or two, but you didn’t feel like Mario Kart and the games he currently has don’t interest you as much any more. You try a demo of a new rpg that came out, and enjoyed it for a bit. But you finished the demo a couple hours later and went back to being bored.
You look around, and notice the apartment you two live and see that it's kind of messy. You search around the kitchen sink and bathroom to get some cleaning supplies. You start cleaning and you start to notice that your long hair really likes to get in the way when you bend over. You find a rubber band, and make a quick impromptu ponytail hangs goes down your back.
With how small your body is, you have no trouble getting into hard to reach places. But with how short you are now, you can’t reach the high places anymore. You can't even reach the top of the fridge anymore or any of the top cabinets. Doesn’t help that you don’t have a step letter. You get so into cleaning that you almost forgot about lunch, you look in the fridge and its quite bare and most food you have is nothing but prepackaged TV dinners.
“Hmm, what can I make? I don’t really want those dinners. “ You do find a nearly expired salad mix, that he bought a few days to “try” to get into something health. And then you chop up an apples and nuts with a bit of olive oil to make a decent salad.
After you get done with dinner, you finish up with the rest of cleaning. Once your done, you crash on the couch after a tiring day of cleaning the apartment. The apartment, has never looked better. Where the was once marks from spilled pop and discarded food packaging in random places, now looks clean and tidy. The place was spotless, almost the entire apartment was cleaned.
You spend the next hour looking for recipes on the laptop to try your hand cooking someday, and comprise a list of food to pickup for the next week. Afterwords, Richard arrives in the door.
“Wow, the apartment looks great. How did you manage this? Oh, and cute ponytail, btw.” He says.
You blush at that remarks, while playing your ponytail. “Thanks, being small kind helps getting in a few places.” You blush even harders. “So, um, I got a list here of things we need to pick up later, after we take care of getting me some clothes.
“Right, right. Give me a moment to change and we can head on out, Kitty”
"I knew it!" You yelled. "No wonder you named me Katherine!"
