Something unusual that happened that day


Last Sunday was an aberrant day for me. One of my best friend, Asraff, had invited me to go to a gym at our neighbourhood community centre. Since I have never been to a gym before and it sounded like fun, I reluctantly agreed on one condition that we should get another guy to follow us. Someone who is on the wrong side of the weighing scale and could use a little exercise... Asraff immediately called Haziq and we agreed to meet at Asraff's house at 2pm

On that day, at around 1pm, Haziq and I agreed go to Asraff's house together since we live next to each other's block. As usual, I had to wait at his void deck because he is the one who is usual late. While I was waiting impatiently, a cute brown kitten approached me. It must have been only a few months old because it was quite tiny. Since I love cats, I didn't want to scare it away so I just stood and tried not to make any sudden movements. The kitten kept on getting closer and closer till....

IT BIT ME WITH IT'S RAZOR SHARP TEETH!!!

No, just kidding. It didn't bite, instead it walked around my legs and licked my toes. Aw, that's so cute I thought. Suddenly, Haziq appeared. We chatted and I immediately forgot about the kitten. We continued walking and chatting about what we're gonna do at the gym. All this while, the poor kitten was tailing us. At a traffic light, Haziq realized the kitten looking with its small beady eyes at us intently.

He immediately told me about the kitten. I recognized the kitten from Haziq's void deck and caught on that it must have been following us. Wouldn't it be funny if it followed us all the way to the gym? But it was a slim chance because we would be taking a bus. When we finally meet up with Asraff, Haziq enthusiastically told him about the kitten. Asraff brushed him off and said he was childish for getting excited because of a kitten.

Haziq held his head in embarrassment. But the kitten was still there with us. As the three of us walked to the community centre, we lost sight of the kitten halfway and never saw it again. But sometimes, when I pass by Haziq's void deck, I hope to meet that kitten again and maybe get the chance play with it.
