Rejection

by carolynholm

Cher Madame,

Mon repose was shattered by Madame’s rejection.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Is this about the hairball? I yelled at you because you deposited it on my nice Armenian rug.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Madame has repeatedly rejected this pauvre petit cat.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I have not rejected you, sweetie.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

This morning you pushed me away. Avec rudeness.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Oh. That. You were in my face.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

It was the time for Madame to awaken!

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

No it wasn’t.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Bien sûr, it vraiment was that time. I was starving. It was time for la breakfast.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

It was almost time.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Always an argument. And last night also, Madame rejected me.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I did? I don’t think so.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Yes, again pushing this pauvre innocent cat away.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Okay, it was a bit crowded with both of you cats sitting right on top of me.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

But you hurt the feelings.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I’m sorry. I love you, and your belly hair is wonderfully soft, but I can’t sleep with you practically on my face.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Voila. See? You rejected me.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Okay. I’m sorry for that.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

And that is not all. The other day you said you were going to put me down.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

And?

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Put. Me. Down.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Oh. That’s not how I meant it. I was going to lift you off my lap.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Then Madame should say ça.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

I think we’ve had this misunderstanding before. I wish we could stop repeating some of these conversations.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Ouf. Yet another rejection by Madame.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin
