I understand the meaning of death now.
Mom and Dad, although I'm leaving, I will always be with you. But I didn't want to see your sad faces, so I chose to leave quietly.
Perhaps, as my mother said, as long as you still remember me, I am still alive. Death, now is my moment, and I am going to say goodbye to this world properly.
Then choose a secluded place where no one can find you.
A cat's life is ultimately short. For Xu Qiaoqiao, the world is already very good. She has people she loves, and she is very happy.
But the only drawback is that once you leave this world, it's goodbye forever.
After seeing Da Mao off, Xu Qiaoqiao felt terrible. This was the first time she had ever said goodbye to her child, and she hadn't even said a word of farewell.
Perhaps there were some warnings beforehand, but Xu Qiaoqiao didn't pay attention at the time. Although she had seen cats leave this world before, she never thought of this outcome.
We should at least say goodbye properly.
Jun Qi probably knew what had happened. He thought of the mischievous and affectionate cat that used to be, which had now grown into a very reliable cat. It was a pity that they had only been reunited for a short time.
"Meow?"
Er Mao and the others already had an answer in their hearts regarding Da Mao's disappearance. After what had happened before, they all knew that death was something every life had to go through, and that one day they too would leave this world.
But I still feel sad and reluctant to let go. When I look at the stars at night, I point to the brightest star and wonder if that is the person I am closest to.
After learning that Da Mao had left this world, the three little ones didn't seem particularly sad, but when they ate, they would subconsciously leave an empty space in the middle.
This also happens when I'm sleeping.
As time passed, Xu Qiaoqiao could feel death getting closer and closer to her. Lately, she especially liked to take Jun Qi out for walks. It just so happened that it was April now, and spring was in full bloom.
She looked at this beautiful world and felt very content. Her fur was originally white, so there was no change.
But Jun Qi was different. Much of the hair on his back had slowly turned white, a lifeless white without any luster, looking utterly lifeless.
It's the exact opposite of the current season.
Xu Qiaoqiao: Junjun, look, the flowers over there are blooming so beautifully.
Jun Qi looked in the direction she was pointing, and indeed, large clusters of delicate and beautiful flowers were in full bloom, swaying in the wind and displaying their beauty to passersby.
Jun Qi turned his head back and kissed Xu Qiaoqiao's ear. "Hmm, very pretty."
In the final period of their lives, Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi both started to cling to their cat owner, making Xiaoxue extremely jealous.
However, the cat owner was not happy. She looked at the two cats nestled against her ankles, looking like two fur balls, rubbing against her every now and then.
"Why."
She sighed softly. She wasn't Xiaoxue, who already knew what was going on.
Now, are you all leaving me too?
Miao Yuanyuan bent down and stroked the two little ones' fluffy heads. A lump formed in her throat, and her body trembled slightly. She pressed her lips tightly together, desperately trying to suppress the feeling of sadness.
"don't want……"
In the end, Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi chose to quietly leave the home they had lived in for more than ten years on a late autumn morning. Before leaving, Xu Qiaoqiao wrote a farewell letter to her pet owner in her neat handwriting.
Thank you for taking care of me, but it's time to say goodbye. I think it's time to leave. Over the years, I've been so lucky to have met you, my human. This time, it's really time to say goodbye.
P.S.: Actually, I'm not a cat demon, you big idiot human.
The next morning, Miao Yuanyuan's expression didn't change when she saw the letter, but she silently kept it and then sent Xiaoxue to school.
Xiaoxue wanted to say good morning to Xu Qiaoqiao and the others, but after searching around, she found that the cat was nowhere to be found, so she asked her mother.
Looking at the child's innocent face, Miao Yuanyuan forced a smile and said that the two of them must have gone out for a walk.
Children's world is simple; she easily believed her mother's words and happily went to school.
Watching Xiaoxue's lively figure disappear into the distance, Miao Yuanyuan's distress did not ease at all. She calmly returned home, calmly found the cookie box in Xu Qiaoqiao's little apartment, and calmly opened it.
But the outburst of emotions always comes so suddenly. She looked at the plush toys neatly placed inside, and there was also the scarf that she had given her, which she had knitted herself.
Miao Yuanyuan sobbed a few times, tears streaming down her face onto the toy. She suppressed her sobs, her vision blurred, her fingers gripping the lid turned slightly white, and her heart felt like it was being squeezed.
Don't leave me, aren't you cat demons? Why do you have such short lifespans?
They can write, they can read, and they say they're not cat demons.
Look at those cat demons, none of them even live for twenty years! You've all made a huge disgrace, you know? Come back right now, okay? You were just on vacation.
We'll come back when the journey is over, right...?
