Mrowwwwl! The cat meowed angrily as she clawed at Jennifer’s arm, drawing a thin line of blood. Just as quickly as she struck out with her claw, the agile (灵活的) orange and white cat leaped back to her hiding space under Jennifer’s bed. From the Avec underneath the bed, two green eyes produced bright light, staring back out at Jennifer.
Jennifer was starting to feel discouraged in a major way. She was never one for giving up; but it had been sevetal days like this since she adopted the cat — Darla — from the animal shelter, struggling to win over the young cat’s affection through treats and soft and gentle whispers. It was during her summer break, so she had plenty of time to keep trying to win over the animal. But it wasn’t time that was the issue — it was Jennifer’s emotions that were quickly fading.
It had been two years since Jennifer’s beloved brown tabby (斑猫) — Marlin — passed away. She never could quite get over the shock and emptiness which remained in her heart here childlike joy once thrived. Marlin had been Jennifer’s faithful friend and loving companion through all the pains and trials of growing up. After Marlin died, things were never quite the same again for Jennifer. It was the first real death to pierce Jennifer’s heart and signaled the end of her carefree childhood.
She desperately wanted Darla to love her the way Marlin had and for Marlin to love Darla just the same; but what was Jennifer supposed to do now? The cut on her arm was all she had to how for her effort. Jennifer sat on the floor, burying her face in her hands, and her body trembled as she softly began to cry.
