'Is she here?' She thought as she looked in the bedroom. 'No! Here?' She looked in the bathroom. 'No! Here?' She looked in the kitchen.

"Ah! Mamo-chan! I can't find Luna anywhere and it's getting time for the vet's appointment!" Usagi cried to her husband as he searched the pantry.

"Usako! She must be hiding here somewhere. She's so long overdue for her annual vet's appointment that the vet threatened to not treat her if we can't make to this 5:00 appointment. Are you sure you didn't accidentally tell her about the appointment?"

She shook her head, flying her hair in the air. "I was so careful about it to keep it in my mind only that I forgot about till you reminded me." She smiled sheepishly at him.

He looked at her and sighed, 'No wonder, she was watching cartoons on TV leisurely when I came home an hour ago.'

The alarm in his watch beeped suddenly. The couple's eyes grew in fear before they sprang to action. Mamoru fervently told as he opened the kitchen drawers, "We have to search faster! We only have a minute before we have to get in the car and drive to the vet."

He looked back at her to see her looking earnestly into the refrigerator before she smacked her head and cried, "What am I doing? She's not in the refrigerator."

Mamoru couldn't help but burst into laughs at her cute, pouting face. Her cheeks were red with embarrassment while her blue eyes were slightly glassy as she stared at him shyly. She collapsed on the floor, blushing more and more as he laughed on floor.

"Mamo-chan! What are we--"

"Is something the matter?" said Luna as her feline eyebrow raised at the scene in front of her on the floor.

"LUNA!" They screamed as they suddenly lunged at her. Luna yelped and instinctively tried to run away but was caught by her owners' fast reflexes. She tried to squirm out of their hands sensing danger, crying, "Let me go! What are you two doing?".

"Finally! Let's go Mamo-chan. We will late for our appo--"

Suddenly, a phone rang in the hall simultaneously as the clock ding-donged 5:00 PM. The couple stared at each other in growing horror as the phone went into message mode.

"Dr. CHIBA! That's it! You have rescheduled the appointment 30 times now and I can't wait anymore! I even tried to give you appointment when I am on vacation and even that, you didn't have time to make. I can't treat your cat anymore so please find another vet for her. Goodbye!"

The house was silent for a while before gradually the sound of the TV filled the house. Luna watched the TV in all her feline glory, sprawled out in the middle of the sofa with a smug smile on her lips. The couple sprawled out on either side of her, still not believing that their best efforts were wasted away in just a minute. Thus, the energetic evening came to a lethargic end.
