Leaving
August 1, 2019
That cat wants to lay down and go to sleep. He's a dirty old cat, his name is Pluto. He's thinking where to lay down.
There's a girl and a boy with him. They're hugging one another; the kitty wants a hug too. They're hugging each other because they're afraid. Maybe afraid of Pluto! The boy is named Brad and the girl is Phyllis. I like the shoes he has on. They're saying, "get me outta here! Get me outta here!"
Before this, it was raining. It sounded like "pitter patter, pitter patter," walkin' in the rain, ShwoOOo! They maybe just met in the rain. The cat lives there where they're standing, he'd like to get out of the rain.
It looks like the people are wearing old clothes, but they're dressed pretty good. By the looks of it, this happened in the 30's. Maybe they are going someplace, but where? Could be for a ride to look around.
He must be leaving somewhere to fight, maybe leaving for the service. He's telling her goodbye because he's going someplace in Europe where there's a small war. The cat knows Brad is going away. Cats are so know-it-all. Pluto is laying on her foot so she doesn't leave. He says, "you ain't takin' her noplace!"
