Effing Feline’s amazing date #wewriwa
I, Effing Feline, told you last week that I had a hot date with a flexible pussycat. Well, the date was life-changing, even though we didn’t even rub noses. Or yowl at the moon together. I’ll tell you why after this word from my sponsor, The Triple Wedding.
When he finished explaining, Teegan stared at him incredulously.
“Are you out of your brain? Mercedes, your brother has gone insane.” She lowered her voice. They were in public and she didn’t want to draw embarrassing attention. “Do you even have a brain, Sterling? I can’t believe you want me to pick a guy out of a crowd and ask him to be my wedding date. Just how desperate do you think I am?”
He exchanged a look with Mercedes then raised his eyebrows and shoulders at the same time.
Wow. He apparently thought she was really desperate.
And a few more:
But she was a successful businesswoman who could go to the double wedding without a man tagging along beside her like a pet fubsy, all legs and tail, galumphing on a diamond-studded leash. “No. Just no.” She stomped away, leaving the angel-beet casserole on her plate.
Mercedes followed. “Tee, slow down.”
With each step on the pavement-grass, a faint aroma of vanilla and hay graced the air, and when the scent grew a lot stronger, she knew Sterling had joined his sister in the chase. He ran past and stopped in front of her, making her stop, too.
“These are factory buildings,” he said. “The work crews will be getting off any minute and there’ll be twenty or thirty guys for you to choose from.”
Effing Feline here again. Why was my date so amazing while Teegan’s had such a rough start?
No, it’s not what you think. Sheesh, get your mind out of the gutter. It’s because I recognized her scent immediately and she recognized me an instant later. It turns out she’s my long-long sister, Effie Feline!
We hadn’t seen each other since the Pet Shop. We spent the night talking and reminiscing and laughing. She’s great. A worthy sibling for the great Effing Feline!
