EMMA
~
I rolled the sleeves of my sweater before grabbing my fur baby, so light and so small in my arms that I had to carry it gently because I was afraid the kitten might break if I made a mistake, so I was as careful as I can and it felt like I had a teddy in my hands and the thought made me smile. I had no idea how to do this for I have never owned a pet before, but I was somewhat determined to do so, the best I can, for this cat has taken my heart the moment I laid eyes on those big hazels.
Raising to my eye level I checked if it was a male or female.
"Oh you're a male," I said. And it meows to me with my eyes closed, I really thought this was a female because it looked like one.
I took a deep breath. "It's okay" I smooched him as he kept meowing to me, such soft and tender soft music to my ears.
