It was an October day, with a chilly breeze that blew occasionally. Artistic, Art for short, was walking down the street, hands tucked in her pockets.
"Making my way downtown, walking fast." she sang. As she turned the corner, something in the alleyway caught her eye.
"Walking faster" she said as she walked to investigate. As she got closer she saw a cardboard box and heard something.
"What's that noise?" she questioned, with worry slowly starting to overcome her. She bit her lip and peered into the box.......
"Meow"
Art sighed with relief as she saw a litter of kittens playing in the box. "AWWWW!!!" she cooed. Art loved cats with all her heart, and kittens just blew her away.
"What monster would leave these four adorable kittens out?! Especially on a chilly day like this!" she yelled in wonder to no one in particular. She crouched down and carefully picked up the box. As she did that, the kittens started to meow nonstop at the movement.
"Shh, it's okay. It's okay. I gotcha." She said soothingly as she stood up. She carried the box as she walked home, completely forgetting why she went out.
"It's okay. I gotcha" she repeated to the kittens every few minutes.
The next day....
Art was laying around, snuggling with her new kittens. Then she realized....
"S**T!!! THE GROCERIES!!!!
