That cat -2...

Remember that huge, scary cat I had talked about in one of my earlier posts? (Read here).
Well, that cat has now taken some action to freak me out.
I lazily wake up this morning, go brush my teeth and enter the room, I hear a mew (yeah, from inside the room!!!!). I peep into my room with my heart pounding....whew, there was no cat inside the room. Yes, INSIDE the room.But I still could hear mews. Paartha the cat is sitting on my window sill and mewing to its heart's content!!! I was scared, thankfully, I did not scream like I once did!
Buzzzzz..flashback!!!!
Again, going towards the room. Cat is following me (cha, edhellam enna follow pannudhu!:( ). I try to shoo it away. Cha, pogavum matengudhu. And it suddenly disappeared. Well, good, I thought and opened the room. Right then I heard a really loud mew. And guess what, it was coming from right where I stood. I turned and looked behind. No, the cat was not there. I looked down. Confirming my worst fears (at least for that moment, they were my worst!), the cat was happily sitting at my kaaladi. I yelled like mad. I screamed like crazy.
Yeah, the cat got scared and ran away! ;)
Buzzz....come back to present.So the cat was at my window sill. Thankfully, the window's mesh was protecting me from the cat. I made noises, hushed and shooed but it refused to move. This is my thalaiezhuthu I thought, and left the room. I came back after a while. God only knows if I tortured the cat in my previous janmam or something....the cat was sitting quietly somewhere and starting coming behind me the second it saw me. I again tried to shoo it away et al. but of course, it would not go away.Now I had a problem.
For the way the cat was closely following me, it would surely enter my room. I had to do something to prevent that. When I neared the room, the cat obediently went and sat at the corner of my door. Oh my god, some strategic thinking needed!
What could I do, I quickly opened, went in and shut the door at lightening speed, summoning all my might. Whew, saved!!!!
The cat is still outside, mewing and mewing.
To the cat: I am absolutely sorry if I harmed you in some way in my previous birth or your previous births. I am sure it was done unknowingly because well, right now, I'm scared by what you do and I'm really sure I wouldn't have the guts to harm something I find scary. Please forgive me and LEAVE ME ALONE FOR NOW!!!!
