Apart (unedited)
Once upon a time, somewhere in France, there lived a couple animal-Pussy
and Loki. They were different kind of animals, Pussy was a cat and Loki was a
dog. The beginning of their relationship was so unclear, but all of sudden love
played its role; No one couldn’t deny love that came to us. Indeed, some
friends of them couldn’t believe how a cat and a dog would get along, but back
to them; they didn’t care at all. We could say that, they were perfect couple
of animal. Pussy was a beautiful cat, big deep blue eyes with icy white fur.
And so was Loki, his brown fur was so soft and beautiful.
It was a murky morning where Loki was standing beside a trash bin, waiting
for the foods that people tossed. He was quite anxious, because the sun was
starting to light the world, but there was no food to eat. In his middle of
anxiety, he saw Pussy walked lazily upon him.
“What’s on earth is happening?
Did you wake on the wrong side of the bed?” Loki asked his girlfriend. He could sense that something wrong happened to his
lady.
Pussy shook her head, refusing
the fact that she woke on the wrong side of the bed. “Luna came to me last
night, she said that this market, I mean our house is heading a big renovation.
The government wanted to rebuild this place.” Pusssy said sadly, she tried her
best not to cry.
Loki, not surprising-was so
shocked. “I’ve been living here since I was born when my momma left me. I
couldn’t leave this place, no matter what happen. My momma might look for me-her
son here. But how if at that moment, I already moved to somewhere she doesn’t
know.” Loki said as he playing the moment of his momma gave a birth for him.
The one and only moment he was with his mum. His mum was a mystery, no one knew
if she was alive or died.
Pussy pitied Loki, she knew that
Loki loved his mum more than anything, include her. She touch Loki’s back
gently, and rubbed it. “For god’s sake, Loki. I really want to meet your mum, but
unluckily, we have to go as soon as we can. Luna said that there will be no
food anymore, because the government already made a rule for the villagers,
they couldn’t throw their rubbish here. That means, there will be no food.”
“I… I… just can’t leave this
place anytime soon…” Loki said. The tears already poured his face. “But, you
can leave this place anytime you please. Just leave me here, I’ll be alright by
myself.” Loki added. His voice was cracking. “Loki… I can’t…” Pussy mumbled.
She was so sad, like this was the last time she sees Loki. Both Loki and Pussy
already drowned in their mind.
Surprisingly, Loki could say a
word between his sobs. “Pussy, please… this is the best.” Loki forced a smile.
“This is the worst option of all times! I couldn’t even breath without you!
You’re my
oxygen, Loki. So, how am I supposed to live without you?” Pussy shrieked,
breaking the morning peace. “Pussy, listen to me. Please don’t make this any
harder on both of us. I’ll be alright, so will you. I love you and so do you. Either way we’re close or miles
away, the deal is we got the same feeling. I’ll be alright, trust me.” Loki
pouted, forcing a smile on his lips. All of sudden, Loki hugged Pussy; a
friendly hug.
“Good bye Loki, good luck.
You’ve scratched so many moments in my mind. I love you.” Pussy said as she
walked away. The more steps Pussy took, the more tears streamed down her face.
Not wanting any regret, Pussy ran as fast as she could. She didn’t want hear a
word Loki said because it would change her mind.
Month by month passed painfully
slowly for Pussy. Pussy mind still stuck in Loki. Not even a second, she could
erase Loki from her mind. The moments she spent with Loki still lingering in
her mind. That was an unbearable fact, no matter how hard she tried.
Pussy lived in the Paris now, in
a basement of a hotel to be exact. It was a five star hotel, tat named Tranquizes
Hotel.
She was a popular kitten singer. Yes, she got the gold voice, like an
angel-for kittens of course. She did entertain people by her voice, but not
with herself. She smiled and laughed not with her heart. Emptiness engulfed her
heart, stopping herself from having fun. It was pathetic to have a life like
that, but she couldn’t light herself up the way she was with Loki.
Speaking of Loki, none of the kitten and doggie friends of Pussy knew how
was he going, died or alive. Every now and then, news about Loki were doubtful.
However, Pussy believed that Loki was doing fine.
“Hey yo Pussy! c’mere!” Niaz-Pussy’s friend shouted from the corner
of the café. “What’s up?” Pussy asked.. “Sing for me please.” Niaz smiled
mischievously . Indeed, Niaz had a crush on Pussy. “I can’t, I have something
to work on.” Pussy refused politely. Honestly, she had nothing to do that day
but she didn’t want to sing for Niaz who was known as a playboy kitten. He was
a rich kitten after his daddy wealth who was a great business man of some
enterprises. He got money but no brain. All he knew was having fun.
“I’ll pay it, three times of your salary.” Niaz smiled mockingly.
“Sorry, but I can’t.” Pussy said. “Five times.” A grin glued on Niaz’s
face. “Sorry Niaz, maybe next time.” Pussy said as she started walking away
from Niaz. But, Niaz pulled Pussy’s leg, not letting her go. “Ten times.” This
cocky, stubborn, and selfish kitten still begging Pussy to sing for him. “Whatever, but I can’t.” She walked away
from Niaz. No, she was running from Niaz because he kept begging. She ran out
to the main road, where a kitten wasn’t
supposed to be. In that time, the government forbade the kittens
presence because the king of the kingdom got an allergy of kittens. Indeed it
was no fair, but a rule was a rule.
She rushed to the woods to avoid Niaz. This was a proper place to
refresh your mind. It was spring when the flowers every here and there were
blossoming beautifully. That was what Pussy loved the most in the spring.
She sat under a big tree. Her head was tilted back, looking up to the
sky. She was imagining Loki’s face and what was he doing now. She hoped that
Loki was doing fine. She hoped that she could see Loki’s face one day. She
hoped that she could erase Loki out of her mind if she couldn’t meet him one
day. She hoped the emptiness that spread in her heart would disappear soon. She
hoped that this eternal pain would be changed by happiness. She hoped that she
could get through this merciless painfully days.
Right about that time, Pussy saw a man with an axe on his shoulde. The
man seemed enraged or it was because his day work. Yeah, the sun was shining
brightly since it was in the middle of august which meant it was summer. It wasn’t clear what he would do with those
bunch trees.
Pussy kept her sight on the carpenter man, she was quite annoyed . She
went here for a peace, not this kind of view. Then, she tried to clear her mind
which meant allowing Loki to engulf her mind again. Nothing could calm her down but the memories
of Loki that still lingering in her mind. It was inevitably because thinking of
someone you should forget but you love the most would bring an affect. The
affect would bring bazzilion questions to your mind, like why do we have to
forget someone we love the most? And why do we have to forget someone if I
don’t want to? Then, this list of questions would never come to an end because
it was an affliction, but who cares.
The man secretly tiptoed to where Pussy was. Pussy was daydreaming so
she didn’t notice it. Suddenly, the man lifted Pussy up and put Pussy into the
sack. Pussy tried to scratch the man’s arm but failed. The only thing she
scratched was the sack, fortune wasn’t by her side that time.
The man tied the sack tightly and made the Pussy couldn’t breathe at
all. The lack of the air was enough to get pussy passed out temporarily.
Hours later, Pussy woke up with her had aching like hell. She was
shocked because she was in a cage. She did realized that the man kidnapped her or whatever it was. But
then, a plate full of whiskas was put in front of her cage, her appetite hit
the highest level since she hadn’t ate anything since yesterday-as she tried to
remember it. She didn’t think twice if that food was poisonous or not.
She looked that the room was packed with furnitures; tables, chairs,and
so on. She noticed that the man was a carpenter.
The man who kidnapped Pussy
entered the room. He didn’t bring his axe anymore. As the observant kitten,
Pussy thought that the man was in middle fifty. But that didn’t matter at all.
“Hey pretty cat, got your belly stuffed?” The man giggled like a dumbass.
“Get ready, I’ll eat you in a minute.” And with that, the man left the room,
humbling a song. This man had lost his mind, Pussy thought. As long as she
knew, human didn’t eat cat. But maybe this man was another kind of human who
had this weird appetite.
Pussy was scared to death, not wanting die without Loki by her side.
Cliché, but that was true love. She didn’t eat anymore yet thinking about what
the man said to her. She couldn’t end up her life like this, she’d rather die
alone in the wood.
Hours by hours passed by. Suddenly, the man entered the room
abruptly.
The man entered the room and followed by a dog.
It was Loki.
She recognized him. His brown fur, his eyes, his face, and the way he
walked.
Pussy almost forgot how to breathe. She couldn’t expect that she would
meet Loki in this such place- a place that might led her to the darkness
forever. Pussy’s blue eyes got widen when Loki got closer to her. Loki’s face
was unreadable, unlike Pussy’s, she was smiling like an idiot but full of love.
“Loki?” Pussy’s hissed when the dog Pussy considered as Loki stood in
front of her cage. No anwer, Loki seemed didn’t care about what Pussy said.
“Watch this kitten yo stupid doggie. Don’t eat her, but if you do it,
she shall be your last food on earth.” The man warned Loki. But, Loki kept
quiet otherwise he licked his feet and crawling back and up like most
dogs-disgusting. Loki wasn’t like that.
After that the man left Loki and
Pussy. The room suddenly fell into silently. Loki stared at Pussy so deep.
Finally, Pussy broke the silently. “Loki? Is that you?” she almost cried-happy.
But still no answer. Loki kept staring and saying nothing. Pussy knew it was
Loki, it was the man who kept haunting her mind these past years. The man she
had waited all of her life with no regret.
The man she loved to the moon and back or even to the seventh sky and
back-Cliché.
Whatsoever.
“Loki? Where have you been? I miss you loads.” Pussy became this fussy
kitten everytime she was with Loki. “Loki. Tell me.” Pussy kept asking even
though there was no answer, not even a nod. “Loki? Did your head got an amnesia or what? I lov-” Loki
screamed, cutting off Pussy’s word.
“Shut the hell up!”
Uncontrollably, a drop of tear streamed Pussy’s face. She never thought
Loki would say that thing to her. It was on her bottom list of what Loki would
say to her. She couldn’t even imagine more about how far Loki had changed.
The carpenter man walked into the room and took Pussy’s cage, bringing
it to another room. And it was kitchen. She saw a big pan with boiled water.
She knew it was for her.Pussy noticed
that this was her last time, so she screamed as loud as she could, telling Loki
about her feelings.
“I love you Loki! Bye!” as she screamed, the tears started streaming
down her face.
Suddenly, Loki bit the man’s arm.
Pussy’s cage fell onto the floor.
Pussy was free.
A year later, Pussy and Loki attended the wedding party. Not their
wedding party, but their master; Harry and Lily. Harry and Lily once saved
Pussy and Loki from the carpenter. They were beyond happy now. Life had a
mysterious way to surprise us.
