I See You

Okay, so this one is a real story.

Today, when I was thinking about what should I write for today, there’s an orange tabby cat visited me. Not really visited me, just exploring around my home front porch. I peeked through my window because he seems so wary for every slight move near him. The cat is less than a meter from me, but he didn’t aware of my presence. I took some photos of him and when he finally recognized me, he startled a bit and went away hurriedly.

And suddenly, I recalled something similar in the past.

Years ago, when I ready to go to my college, I saw a big cat chilling in my front porch. Being me, of course I tried being friendly to this cat. I squatted down around a meter away from the cat and started clicking my tongue repeatedly, basically doing a catcall to the cat.

The cat didn’t budge. Not even an inch. He just sat there looking at me. I still catcalled him when I realized something odd.

The cat did look at me, then he shifted his gaze to my side. Well, I’m aware I was alone. My family was not at home at that time. I turned my head but of course there’s nobody behind my back, not even a single another cat. But the cat keeps looked at me and to my side several times. And it was around 1 PM when The Sun is on fire.

So what did I do? I got up slowly, saying goodbye to the cat, open the gate, locked it, and move on.

I don’t know what the cat saw at that time, but I hope it’s not the bad one.
