Meow Meow.

Me : " Omg, Carmel. Seriosly. I asked you to shush but no, we must do what you do right."

Meow.

I forced a forced slight grin at her. Okay. She wins, I guess.

I had just taken a couple steps out the door when Ms Meow jumps out of my arms and sits in the middle of the first stair.

I walk around her,  even if she walks and sits in front of me I got down the stairs when -----

" Young lady. What are you doing? Awake at nearly ------ "

She gulps. She starts of confident and pretty average volume of voice but one she started saying "What...." her voice lowered down into a whisper.

She continues, " It's nearly (sudden pause) It's nearly 11:00! You know what happened on this specific night, I told you. It's been 21 years since then. "

A little familiar furry face comes behind her..... Meow.

Me : " Mom, I - I um I wanted to know if it was true. I wanted to look for the dr-dr- dress."

Mom : " No Grace! Stop talking about this, not here,  not at this time,  not tonight, not 21 years after that incident. "

Me : " Okay, mom. Good night."

Mom : " I'll be in my bedroom. "

Me : "Why weren't you there any way?"

Mom : " Bed! Now!!!"

Me : " Okay." I whisper hiss.

Meow.

I walk beck to the middle of the stairs and sit. I wait until she closes her bedroom door. I go back down the stairs and open the door that leads to the backyard.

Meow.
