"That is for you two to decide."
"I think she wants to be called Bean. She is small like one."
The kitten moved much closer and then finally sat down looking straight into Jeremiah's green eyes. They both looked at each other for several moments while the doctors talked in hushed whispers.
The cat made the first sound of its brand new life, a high whiney mewling. It had accepted Jeremiah. He would now belong to her.
"You are now its Human."
Jeremiah nodded.
He gently took Bean in cupped hands and returned to his assigned quarters.
