Electra desperately wanted to know what they were talking about. She knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, but she wanted to know why Etcetera was acting weird, and why Mistoffelees started acting weird when Etcetera showed up.
"Everlasting, forgive me." Electra subtly said to herself, creeping over to in front of the tire.
She was praying that neither of them could smell her. She was wondering if it was something bad that would affect not only Mistoffelees, but herself as well.
"I enjoyed last night, Misto." Etcetera whispered.
Last night? Electra knew something was up now.
"I know," Misto began. "but it was wrong. I shouldn't have been with you."
The two were together the preceding night. Electra couldn't believe it. She decided to listen to a little more of it just to hear what they actually did together.
"Why shouldn't we have been together?"
"Because of Electra. I love her. She means the entire world to me. But getting close with you didn't really feel faithful on my behalf."
Electra's eyes widened at the sound of that. She always knew Mistoffelees was kind of a troublemaker. But he'd never do something like that! A tear rolled down her face as she walked off. She walked to her humans' house. She sat in the large, open garden and cried her eyes out. How could Mistoffelees? She trusted him. What a stupid idea that was!
