Held Captive
by Kristina
England
Nora glanced
out of the crate, letting out a cry for help. The
car she was in was going 60 miles an hour. The
driver was neurotic. He often fell asleep on her
couch, slept in her bed, and disappeared for
hours to put in "a good day at work."
But she loved
him none the less.
With the
exception of today.
Once a year,
the scoundrel stuck her in a crate and made
cooing noises as he steered through rush hour
traffic ignoring her continuous cries.
Then... Then
he handed her over to a lady he called "The
Vet" for poking, prodding, and a needle or
two.
Once The Vet
was done, he smiled and said, "See, that
wasn't so bad, was it?"
Nora scowled.
Clearly, the
man was a moron. But a moron with access to
food and that... that was the most clever moron
of all.
