âI donât think thatâs a good idea.â
âWell then, maybe I just wonât be going.â
Gwen did it again. She turned, exited the hotel room, and left me alone. The emotional roller coaster she had me on was exhausting. We had a cat to re-home, a plane to catch, and now she was going to play more games. It was infuriating. I tried to find her, but the hotel front desk told me she had taken off, and headed for the street.
Two hours later, I had yet to find her. I was worried and left with no choice but to reschedule our flight for later. I was going to wring her neck when I found her, and she would never again run off on me. On a hunch, I called a few of the local animal rescues.
âYes, the woman in the black business suit and heels is sitting in our meet and greet room. She turned over the cat, but she doesn't seem to want to leave.â A soft-spoken woman gave me the news I so desperately wanted.
âOkay, donât let her go. Sheâs not a mental patient or anything, I can assure you, but she just really loves animals.â I drove through the busy streets of New York City, headed for the animal rescue.
The woman laughed. âWe understand, we are all animal lovers. Sheâs fine, take your time.â
When I showed up, I found her holding a cute black cat in her arms. It blended so easily with her suit; I almost didn't see it.
âHey.â I sat down across from her.
Gwen smiled. âSorry I ran off on you like that. You just donât understand how much I love animals. I should have become a veterinarian. It was always my passion as a child.â
âYou still can.â
I had no clue where all this was coming from, but I realized I didn't care. As long as she was okay, all would be good. It was an odd mix of concern and confusion.
âListen, they have cats in California too.â
She laughed. âI know. Iâm sorry about the flight.â
âI got another one for us tomorrow.â
She laughed again, but her eyes were tender as she looked at me. âWhy are you so consumed with getting me to come with you?â
Her question caught me off guard, but I tried to answer as clearly as possible. âI donât know. I was wondering the same thing.â
Gently, Gwen handed the cat to a woman who came into the room. âI guess we should go, but Iâm terrified of flying. I should have told you this before.â
I didn't ask for more, but simply took her hand and walked out after offering a generous donation of five thousand dollars in her name.
âThat was nice of you.â She climbed into the car when I opened the door.
I played chicken with the crazy traffic and eventually got in on the driver's side. âYes, but I did it for you. Donât be scared. Iâm with you, and the flight is going to be okay. I promise you; they do have cats in California.
