Cat Snips - a Short Story Collection By Cat Johnson
“Belinda awoke with a start and heard Max’s voice in the dark, followed by a cat’s hiss.
“Belinda! Did you get a damn cat?” He stomped into the bedroom and flipped on the light, blinding her.
She blinked at him. “Yes.
You didn’t step on him and hurt him, did you?”
“Him? What about me? I nearly tripped and broke my neck in the dark.”
“I can see you’re fine.” She bent to look under the bed for the cat. “He must be frightened to death. Poor thing. Here, Black Cat. Psss, psss, psss.”
“Black Cat? You...’re in advertising and that’s the best you can do? Real creative, Belinda.” He snorted and went into the bathroom.
Belinda scowled, his comment grating on her nerves.
There was something very wrong that she was far happier lately when Max was away. When he was home, he always somehow managed to make her feel like crap.
Talking with her friends tonight about Max just seemed to solidify the nagging feeling of discontent that had been residing in the back of her brain for awhile now.MoreLess
