For the past month, I’ve been alone in my apartment. My only company is my pet cat, Loki. During those times, I had a series of realizations. How much I love my cat and I would probably cry if she’s gone. We had our ups and downs, but mostly we have our good times.
Last week, I came home expecting to see Loki running towards me, or waiting by the door. That’s her thing. She greets me every time I come home. Sometimes I wait outside, just to see what she will do and she’ll meow until I come inside. 😂She’s like a dog, patiently waiting for her master to come home, but in our case her slave. You now the relationship between cats and humans is very different with dogs. LOL (P.S. I drew the image. I wanted to show how she waits for me by the door hehe)
Anyway, when I came home, I can’t find her. She’s not in my room, or in the restroom or in the living room. I kept calling out to her. But there was no response! I started to panic. I knocked on my roommate’s door because just maybe she’s in there with Loki. I got no answer. I didn’t check in there because I don’t want to invade my roommate's privacy. So, I decided to go out and look for her. Maybe she managed to sneak past me when I closed the door that morning.
In our compound, there is this huge backyard with grass all over the place. It is supposed to be a parking lot, but most tenants have no car. It was so dark and I tried to look for her there. Calling out her name. I started crying because I don’t know how to live without her. I love her so much. Next, I tried the path leading to the gate and still calling her name. Then I heard a faint meow coming from my roommate’s room. So I tried again. Relieve flushed throughout my body. I decided to go inside my roommate’s room to get her. Apparently, my roommate came home that afternoon and didn’t notice Loki run to her room.
I am very thankful to have her by my side. She doesn’t comfort me when I cry, but her mere presence is enough. In addition, she’s my only model! I’m trying out photography and I can’t find anyone wo’s willing to model for me. So here’s a small gallery of Loki. I have no skills in photoshop or lightroom so they are all raw images hehe. I find it hard to take photos in my room. I'm still playing around with the settings Hehe
I always wondered how people can stay all alone. Having a pet is not the same as having a human companion. I never had the opportunity to be alone nor have only a pet as a companion.
So it is hard for me to understand .
OMG LOKI WHY?! 😂
She made me cry hahahah I was panicking the whole time. Bad Loki 😂
