Chapter 3

(Sorry—we

can’t be together)

I heard someone say, crying.

(I

wanted to be together forever, but looks like it’s impossible)

There

was someone looking at me with a sad gaze, and the warmth of finger

tips stroking me gently. He seemed terribly apologetic, but I was an

abandoned cat to begin with. I thought it was nothing to worry about.

Before I met him, I had been picked up from a cardboard box by a small

girl who called me cute, hugging me as she took me to her home, but

her mother told her, no, we can’t keep him, and with that one

statement, I was abandoned once again.

I was told, you’ll be

picked up by a nice person—but, I figured no one like that would

ever appear before me. I had been captured by strange people who hit and hurt me, so when by some good luck a window in the room had been

left open, I ran away. When I was a stray, I’d always run away

whenever I saw people, but only he was special.
