Boy Meets New Love - OS Weekend Fiction Club

Rate: 15 Flag

Their eyes met. He stopped and stared. She was beautiful and seductive. He sat with the severe woman outside the glass. Answered her questions. Promised whatever she asked. Signed the contract, wrote a check. Sealed his new obsession in a box, drove her home. A new cat.

Actually it is we kats who select our servant. Then we hypnotize you into taking us to your home, providing food and shelter and first class medical care for us, without ever once twigging to who is master and who ardent worshipper. (You don't see us cleaning out your toilet, do ya?)

Cute enough to rate.....

Skypixieo - ain't that the truth.

When I got my cat's, Arthur (the male of the pair didn't take his eyes of me while I was dealing with the interview and the contract. I was "selected". Now I have the "severe lady's" job on Sundays

I don't do pets, but this was fun. And I know enough cat owners to appreciate what sky says about selecting the servant. Good use of the prompt - excellent saga!

Yay! I love reading these mini-sagas, and I always love a story with a happy ending, especially when it involves an animal. I really enjoyed this, and my cat Ali approves!
