Getting up and brushing herself off Liz sighed. She again, couldnt keep her mouth shut and she got beat up again. Sighing,she noticed the large cut in her arm. This was the 8th time this month and shes getting tired of this . She picked her backpack up and walked down the sidewalk towards her home down the block. It takes about 10 minutes no more. As she walked down the empty sidewalk in silence, she heard a small cracking noise behind her. "...what the crap.." she hesitantly turned around but only to see a small black cat staring at her a few feet away."..oh..." The cat sat there staring at her for a few seconds but seemed like hours. "....here kitty kitty" Liz said staring at the cat and gesturing to it to come to her. The cat slowly started to walk towards Liz . It rubbed against her leg and purred. "Arent you just the cutest thing.."Liz said rubbing behind the animals ear.
Liz got up and started to walk down the sidewalk again . She knew she had to get home soon or her mother would get mad. But then,Liz suddenly realized the Cat had started to follow her. "...you cant come with me .." Liz started walking,and again the cat trailed alongside her . "..you cant come with me im sorry im not allowed to have pets" Liz said looking at the cat with a serious look on her face. The cat made a crying sound. Liz sighed "Fine come on...i think...ill name you...Winter.."Liz said staring at the cat as she continued to walk to her home.
