After hearing the boy's request, Robert looked down at him. From what he could see, Yuki's eyes were big, like he wanted to stay on Robert's lap. "That's fine with me," he replied softy, wearing an even softer grin. He continued to pet the boy, listening to him purr with each stroke. Robert then started moving his hand down from the top of the boy's head, petting down until he felt the back of his neck, and then returning back to the top to do it again. It was these long-stroked pets that Yuki really liked.
"Hopefully this storm will pass soon," Robert said with a little hope in his voice. But judging from the commotion outside, it didn't seem likely. His best option for the moment was to get Yuki to fall asleep, so he could sleep the storm out.

Robert watched as the boy walked over to the window, noticing how happy he was. It was always funny to him how Yuki would slowly wag his tail when he was happy. "Nothing right now, Yuki. I do need to go into the basement and mess with the circuit breaker though," he responded. Closing his book and standing up, Robert grabbed the candle next to him and walked down the hall, entering the basement door. It was as dark as he thought it would be. Robert usually didn't like going into basement, but he did when he needed to. Descending down the steps, Robert found the grey circuit box. He opened it, looking at a black switch that was labeled "RESET." He flipped the switch to the left, and then back to the right. There was a click, then a low hum as power was restored back to the house.
As Robert walked out of the basement and back into the living room, he blew out the candle. "Well that's taken care of," he said quietly to himself.
