There were tears in the grey cat's eyes but then they were soon dried out by the burning anger inside her. She unsheathed her claws, Phantom's words hurting her more. She didn't know what to say. She'd expected Phantom to be happier to see her. "
You-left-me!" Was all she managed to say through clenched teeth. Then she pounced but Phantom dodged out of the way. "
I bet you never even thought...never really cared..." She couldn't get it out...all her feelings had been trapped down there for so long it was difficult and painful to get them out...like kitting or a million thorns that had been stuck in you all along but you never noticed because you had just gotten used to the scratching on your skin. Yes, that's what it was. Sharp Thorns and Brambles stabbing at her heart...
