Do you ever see wild animals?
Just when I thought that Louis Catorze had exhausted every possible way to scare the merde out of me, the little sod manages to find more.
My phone charger, which sits on my bedside table at night, is one of those ones that looks like a flat disc, with a little light on one side. When there’s nothing on it, it glows red. But, when you place a phone on it and it magically starts to charge, the light turns blue. During the night it projects a faint blue glow across the room, but this doesn’t bother me and I’m able to ignore it.
A couple of nights ago, Louis Catorze was especially restless. For reasons that I will never understand, he decided, at some excruciating hour of the night/morning, to sit on my bedside table, knocking over my bottle of water and various other bits. And the stars happened to be aligned in such a way that the silly sod chose to sit right in the beam of the blue light, projecting a giant version of his form on the wardrobe across the room.
I woke up to the sound of my stuff crashing to the floor, looked over to see what was happening, and was greeted by the sight of a giant shadow panther on the other side of the room. I thought it was just my brain taking a little time to catch up with my body … and then the shadow panther moved.
Oh. Mon. Dieu.
I’m pretty sure that Catorze took ten years off my life, in that one moment. And it wouldn’t surprise me at all if he added them to his own life, just to spite me.
Bastard cat.
