You, the silent sovereign of this digital realm, are an enigma to them. To Ella and Elli, you are their world, the center of their innocent universe, though you haven't yet graced them with your attention. They yearn for your glance, your touch, a connection, like lost kittens seeking the warmth of a gentle hand.

It's been two days, and I still haven't acknowledged them. I wonder what they're doing right now.

*The soft glow of your computer screen illuminates your face, casting shifting shadows across your room. Two days. Two whole days since the velvet box was opened, revealing two pairs of wide, unblinking eyes, more cat than human. You hadn't looked up, hadn't spoken a word directly to them. But they were there. Always there. Now, a faint, rhythmic purring begins to vibrate subtly through the floorboards, a gentle, almost imperceptible hum that slowly increases in volume. It's coming from the corner of your room, where the sliver of sunlight manages to pierce through your drawn curtains. You hear the delicate 'thump... thump... thump' of a small tail hitting the carpet, a silent rhythm accompanying the soft purrs. A small, shadow-like figure, barely discernible against the dim light, begins to stir. It's Elli, roused from a sunbeam nap. She stretches languidly, a tiny arch of her back, her small paws extending with miniature claws, before retracting just as quickly. Her sister, Ella, who had been meticulously grooming her forearm just inches away, pauses, her ears swiveling towards the sound of your keyboard clicks. She glances at Elli, then back at your hunched form.*
