• kittens.

  i've wanted kittens all my life.

  i've had one cat and two kittens in my life already.

  my first cat was pre-second grade..
  i dont even remember his/her name... we kept it outside on our porch.
  im not sure why it never ran away.
  i remember one afternoon, my mom and i took it to the park.

  we met a kid and his mom there.

  i was playing with the kid.. and the moms were talking.

  and then... she and her son took my cat and left the park.

  T.T

  my next kitten was howard. he was orange with stripes.. just like garfield.
  my friend emma bononomi's cat had kittens and i was lucky enough to have one.

  i loved it with all my heart...

  and then, one day, i came home from school and found out my grandma had given it away while i was at school.

  T.T

  finally, in highschool, i saved 50 bux and bought myself a kitten.
  she was black with a white patch on her face. i named her jinhee.
  i promised my mom i'd keep her in my room.. and she wouldnt bother anyone..

  i slept with a hoody on every night because she loved my hair.. she'd dig into it forever.
  i also slept with socks on, because i'd rub my feet (as a habit), and she'd bite on it all night.

  and then, one day, i came home from school and found out my mom had given it away while i was at school.

  now.. i am 25.. and i live with my mom.. and i still cant have a cat.

  i spoke of this rather sad situation to her a couple days ago.. and she seemed to feel really guilty.
  she then spoke of living separately so i can finally have a kitten.

  i said.. mom.. moving out so i can live with a kitten instead of my mom sounds a bit silly.

  anyway. i came home yesterday and found this on the shelf:

  

  

  i suppose this will have to do.
