I wuv my sister.
My cat died the other day. Last week, to be precise. I was bummed out and all, since it was my favourite cat.
Subsequently, I had to inform my sister (currently in Australia) of
its death. It was her favourite feline as well. Conversation was as
follows;
Me: Hey… hadn’t called you in a long time, huh? Sorry to be the bearer of bad news this time. Cungek died.
Sister: Oh… When? How did it die? Did it suffer?
(By this time, I was thinking; Man it must be hard for her to
hear this. She’s been stressed out by her studies all week and now she’s beeing enlightened of an unexpected death of a beloved pet. I think I’ll try to
appease her as much as possible.)
Me: Of course not. It was an inexplicable death. Cungek was jumping
around like a spastic idiot just the day before. This morning, he just
laid down on a pillow, started breathing slowly and inconstantly and
eventually died in that manner. We’re baffled ourselves.
(I’m thinking; Great job, me. With this explanation, at least
she’s conscious of the knowledge that it hadn’t suffered greatly. Wish
I could console her better, though…)
Sis: Oh… COOL! Let’s get a new cat! Can we get a persian?? Oh no not
a persian, maintenance would suck. Oh let’s plan which breed we should
get now! What about a persian mix???
…
In which, if you are reading this Kak Eron, you are one bloody asshole
insensitive person. I hope you never have pets. You’ll just be counting
the days to their death before you get a new, cuter, more affectionate one.
I’m also reminded of the days when you would plot our cat’s
"accidental disappearance" so we’d have an excuse to adopt an exquisite
looking one.
Burn in hell.
PS: I do miss you though. :3 Not to say I can’t do without your vocal abuse, censorious insults, your tendency to pinch and smack me for the minutest mistake and… oh wait. Why did I miss you again? Eh whatever. Love ya, you spawn of satan you!

Because it bitches and whines constantly. It was either Cungek, or PMS. I think we made the wise choice with Cungek. (If you still have anything else to say to this, I’d retaliate by saying at least it’s better than the other names we bequeathed our other cats; Kenja-nok-babeng, Pusak-nok-kaki-pencat-sebelah, Ngegeh, Bisin and Tuyuk. I bet you wish as hell now that I wouldn’t be naming my own child, don’t you?)
