LIZ
CAT FLASH FICTION
It’s mid-day and the sky
is slightly overcast. The room is slightly grayed by the oncoming clouds.
Liz leaps up onto the
sill and peers out the window. Her reflection stares back at her but she pays
no attention.
Her gaze is on the world
before her. Her eyes occasionally dart from one side to the other. The robin
outside sitting on the fence post is holding her attention now.
It’s doing a special song
for rain.
Liz watches and listens
carefully.
But then something else
catches her attention and her eyes almost widen. What is out there?
Her eyes see so much more
than ours. Sometimes I think she sees the invisible.
Liz adjust herself to a
more comfortable sitting position. The robin’s song continues.
Soon a few drops hit
against the window and the robin flies into the spruce for cover.
Liz takes note and so does
her reflection but as the rain becomes more Liz’s reflection blurs.
Her eyes shut and open a
few times, giving one more glance out before shutting her eyes and tucking her
nose into her paws.
The only sound is the
rain hitting the window.
