Vicious Cat Tale

“Hey, hey”, I said to that black cat sleeping on my bed, “you are not allowed to be here darling!”

“Why?” She asked me back with her sleepy, yet feline accent.

“It is my bed. And you bring such dirty dust with you. You are not cleaned before jumping in.”

She returned my statements with a vicious glance. And before I knew, she was close to me with her round yellow eyes on mine.

And I heard myself speaking, “Oh darling, it really is okay. You sure can sleep even on my pillow if you love too!”
