It took me a few days to realize what school was. It was a place where human's Hisoka's age go to during the week to learn stuff. I don't get it. I don't go to school, but I still learn new things every day! Well, it's okay. Hisoka woke up the next few mornings feeling better, and Watari came by to bring him to school. Hisoka looked adorable in his dark-colored uniform… I wanted to snuggle him. He was eating some oatmeal, which was good, since he didn't eat for a while, and as he ate on the beanbag, I jumped up and nuzzled his arm. Soon, I had to let him go to school. The door closed and I was left sitting on the cold kitchen floor.

I'll wait for him right here, I thought.

So, I sat and waited and waited… but he hadn't come back yet. Well, it was probably only a few minutes, but I don't know how long school lasts. So, I got bored. Can you blame me? I looked around and tried to find something with which to entertain myself. I couldn't take a bath without Hisoka with me, I couldn't reach high boxes to play in, and I couldn't leave the apartment. Hm… well, I could sleep, or play on the beanbag, or…

Oh! I'm hungry! I walk further into the kitchen and notice that Hisoka set out a bowl with water in it, but… Oh, no! He didn't set out any food! My little tummy growled, and I stated to worry. The first thing I did was run back to the door. I scratched and meowed, but no one came. My tummy just kept rumbling as I sat by the door. Hisoka wasn't coming back yet…

Then, I smelled food! Or at least, it was something like it. I followed my nose all around the kitchen, smelling something sweet and I came to a cupboard. I scratched at it until it opened, and it was full of pots and pans. Wrong cupboard. So, I went around the kitchen until he came to a spot where there were a lot of drawers in a row. They weren't hard to open, and I was really hungry! So, one by one, I opened them, climbing up to the next drawer until I was by the top. I couldn't open the top drawer, so I jumped up onto the counter, and opened it from there.

Unfortunately, I still couldn't find anything! I was nearly starving now, and all I had found were some silvery utensils, plastic containers, and a box of bags. Why would someone put bags in a box? Doesn't that defeat the purpose? Oh, well… I could smell whatever was sweet better from high up, even though I was scared to look down. So, I walked along the counter until I came to the sink. There was some water and some thin dishes in there… oh, right! Hisoka used those for his breakfast, which he was so kind to share with me! Pity, it wasn't very sweet… Anyway, the water wasn't what caught my interest. It was the fact that there were more pink bubbles floating around in there! Now, from my last experiences with them, I remembered how fun they were to play with! I would bat them around, and Hisoka had even put some on my nose and it tickled.

I liked them, so I reached into the sink to try to get some. To my misfortune, I slipped, and fell into the sink of water. Had it been deep, I would have been in trouble! I paddled towards the edge on the opposite side of where I had fallen and climbed out. I was soaked from ears to my tail, and I only wanted two things. Hisoka, and that sweet thing I had been smelling all morning! No, I hadn't given up! I shook myself off, getting most everything wet, before continuing my search. I then came to a couple small bowls of some white substances. I knew one of them was what I had been searching for, but I just couldn't tell which one it was! So, I went to the one closest to where I was, but when I dipped my tongue into the powder, I tasted something gross, and with no good flavor at all. I sneezed jumped around, trying to get the powder out of my mouth. In my tantrum, I fell onto the bowl, and it tipped over onto me. When I finally emerged, I was covered in white, and so was a good part of the counter. The water made the substance stick to me, but as long as it was off of my tongue, it didn't matter.

Then, I turned to the other bowl. By then, I was scared. I was nearly killed by the last surprise powder, and I was reluctant to try it. however, the emptiness of my stomach was surging me on, and before I could stop myself, I was licking the remaining powder. Ignorance is bliss… I loved the stuff! It was, indeed, sweet, and it was the best thing I had ever tasted. I licked up as much as I could and that kept me happy all day. I was hopping and jumping, but when I heard the doorknob jiggle, I froze.

Joy filled me up, as I saw the knob starting to turn. If there was one thing in the world that was better than sugar, it was my Hisoka! He didn't like sweet things, but he was as sweet as could be! I was sitting on the kitchen floor, covered in white when he came in. he dropped his bag, looking tired and sad, as always, but his expression changed when he saw me- or more, the mess I had made. His eyes went wide and he slapped his head.

"Idiot!"

I tilted my head.
