Dear diary,
Today mama had a hectic day. She was like a robot with one work into another. So she served our dinner in a hurry and got back to the next job.
Following our daily routine, Tuffy, Selfie and I did our business on the terrace and ran down to get our butts cleaned and grab a chew-stick each from mama.
Since mama was in a hurry, she cleaned our bums but forgot to give us our chew-sticks.
Selfie and Tuffy looked normal about not getting a chew-stick, but I was shaken from within.
NO CHEW-STICK? WHAT DO I CHEW NOW? – my brains cried out.
I ran to my toy box to get Squeaky Kitty, but she was missing.
First, no chew-stick. Then, no Squeaky Kitty. This was too much for me to take in one day.
I walked across the house anxiously. Suddenly, I noticed a notebook lying under the table in the living room.
I slipped under the table and pulled out the notebook and began shredding the pages. It felt so good that I did not stop ripping the notebook for almost an hour.
My anxiety was cured and I had great fun tearing the notebook pages.
I was not guilty about what I did until mama arrived and saw the mess I made.
Mama looked furious as she fired the question – “WHO DID THIS?”
Selfie walked away clean and Tuffy sat still pretending to be invisible.
I did not want to answer mama’s question, but my stupid tail gave out the story. EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Mama scolded me and called me a naughty girl for like a thousand times.
I swallowed the lump in my throat as I walked away from mama.
I tried my best to show mama that I did not want to talk about it, but mama was not ready to cut me some slack.
She needed an answer from a dumb animal. Jeez! (rolling my eyes right now)
I cooked up a plan.
With my ears pressed behind my head and my guilty tail shaking, I narrowed my eyes and frowned.
Then I grinned at mama using my final weapon – the belly up position.
She did not buy it and scolded me again for being a naughty girl.
This is baby Hyena signing-off, not so guilty about tearing the notebook. Damn you tail.
See you tomorrow again! Bye-bye! 🐾
