Suddenly A Kitten

Chapter 19

I carefully placed the final wall down holding my breath.

Rowan exhaled as I pulled back and we slowly gave each other a high five grinning.

"Finally!" I exclaimed gazing at the maze we had constructed on the dining room table.

"It only took three hours." Rowan added as Roman walled in and stopped mid step startled.

"What the fuck is this?"

I smiled brightly.

"You know how they have mazes for mice? Where they have to find the cheese?"

Roman slowly nodded seeming confused.

"It's the same thing, but we put some alcohol at the end, and we're going to make Whiskey find it!" I explained.

Rowan nodded.

"We want to see how long it will take for him to find it."

Roman rubbed his face and grabbed something from the fridge quickly.

"I can't believe your encouraging Whiskey's behavior."

I shrugged.

"It's not like you've been able to stop him, now where is Whiskey?" I looked around curiously.

Roman sighed.

"He's crying over at the new safe I bought to keep him out of the good stuff.... Although, I think I as him running around with a tiny shovel earlier." Roman said then frowned.

"He's probably digging a tunnel as we speak."

Rowan backed away from the table.

"I'll go find him."

As Rowan left I turned to Roman.

"This is going to be so fun, will you watch with us? Pretty please?" I asked hopefully.

Roman slowly nodded.

"Alright. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious."

Rowan ran in with Whiskey and slowly put him at the front entrance.

We all watched as Whiskey sniffed smelling the alcohol instantly.

He slowly trudged into the maze and glared at the walls.

"Look, he's doing something," Rowan whispered leaning forward.

Whiskey slowly put his hands together in the air like he was praying and lifted his knee to his chest closing his eyes.

Then he let out a sharp squeak and began kicking the walls down one by one.

Roman glanced at me.

"I wonder where he learned that from."

I crossed my arms and winced as Whiskey completely demolished the maze Rowan and I had spent hours building.

"Uhm, well... It's not like I taught him the secret art of kitty-kung-fu...."

Roman blinked.

"What the fuck is kitty-kung-fu?"

He knows too much.

I blinked.

"What?"

Roman frowned.

"What the fuck- never mind."

Rowan sighed as Whiskey chugged down the treat.

"What a waste."

Whiskey walked out of the maze giving us the peace sign as he staggered away.
