Never Race a Runaway Pumpkin (2009)
“I saw an open doorway and flew inside.
I was in a tiny office. A lady sat at a desk, talking on the phone.
She had a tissue in her hand and a red nose.
She looked very surprised to see me.
“Sweetie, you’re not supposed to be in here,” she said. “This is the office. Are you lost?”
“No, I’m just looking,” I said, because that’s what my mom always says to store helpers.
“Well, just let me finish up this call, and I’ll see if I can help you,” she said.
I peeked out the door.
No-name was waiting for... me.
Her tail swished back and forth like windshield wipers.
She was plotting how to cross my path.
I could see it in her shiny green eyes.
The office lady sneezed.
“Yes, I know,” she said into the phone. “She’s a darling kitten, but I’m so allergic. I’m sure someone will take her home on Saturday.”
I heard footsteps. Dad poked his head in the door.
“Roscoe,” he said. “That cat is not going to give you bad luck. But Iwill, if you don’t start listening to reason.”MoreLess
