Chapter 256: A Seesaw to Friendship

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

As always, small talk couldn’t bother Fina. Walking elegantly, it came to the gate of the kindergarten and looked in through the fence.

It was a small school, a local kindergarten that serviced the neighborhood. When many of the residents moved out, the kindergarten soon closed due to lack of students.

The door was shut. Honestly, locks were not a problem for cats because they could easily jump through fences. Fina didn’t bother because the iron fence looked exceptionally dirty. The green paint had chipped off for the most part and the bottom of the iron bars were full of brownish rust. On top of the rust, there was also sand and dust. If Fina jumped over the fence, it would get dirty for sure.

Fina was a neat freak. It was not afraid of the fence or stairs. However, Fina cared too much about how its fur looked, so it wouldn’t risk getting it dirty. All it wanted was to take a relaxing walk.

Snowy Lionet ran up from behind, its long fluffy hair like cotton candy.

“My Queen, I am coming!”

It caught up to Fina breathing heavily and looked inside the kindergarten because Fina was looking in there.

“My Queen, do you want to get in?” Snowy Lionet asked.

Fina shook its head, “Nope. I don’t want to get dirty.”

Snowy Lionet almost said out loud, “Don’t worry! I will lick you clean!”

However, Snowy Lionet was smart enough to keep the words to itself. If it really told Fina, Fina might’ve gotten mad and left.

When Snowy Lionet lived in Yuanhua Building and directed other cats to steal, it got into the habit of searching for security bugs at any location. Looking up, it surprisingly found that the gate was only halfway shut, not completely closed. It pushed the gate open with its paw.

“My Majesty, please!” Snowy Lionet said happily.

Fina looked at it with surprise. Encouragingly, it nodded its head and stepped in.

It was a small yard with weeds everywhere. It had been cold, so there were no mosquitos.

“My Majesty, do you want to play?” Snowy Lionet stood next to a seesaw, looking at Fina longingly.

“How?” Fina glanced at the long board, confused.

Seeing that Fina was interested, Snowy Lionet explained, “My Majesty, you stay on one side and I am on the other side. We alternatively thrust against the ground with our legs and then we will go up and down.”

At first, Fina was going to reject the idea. However, seeing how excited Snowy Lionet was and thinking about the conversation between Zhang Zian and Snowy Lionet, Fina realized it had been too harsh on Snowy Lionet. Fina agreed, “Okay. We can play for a little bit.”

“Wait!” Snowy Lionet saw that the seesaw was too dirty, so it picked up some clean leaves and put them on Fina’s side first, then its own side.

Fina was happy. Zhang Zian was never that considerate, and he always complained that Fina was too picky.

“I am going to get on first. My Majesty, you are strong. You can jump up after I get on.” Snowy Lionet knew that it wouldn’t make it up to the seat if it let Fina sit on the seesaw first.

Snowy Lionet sat on one side of the seesaw. The other side was tilting up high.

Fina jumped up and lightly landed on the other end.

Their weight was about the same. Snowy Lionet’s side tilted up as Fina jumped on.

It was an exciting new experience to Fina, and although it couldn’t really explain the reason, Fina felt like it started to have a connection with Snowy Lionet from the up and down of the seesaw.

Screaming excitedly, Snowy Lionet passed its passion onto Fina through the seesaw. It was thrusting the ground harder and harder so the seesaw was going up and down faster and faster.

It was noon. Most people were home eating lunch. No one was in the lane at the time. Otherwise, people might be shocked to see the two cats having so much fun on a seesaw.

Friendship was a special thing. It may build up through working together for a big goal, or simply by having fun on a seesaw.

The kindergarten was once a place full of warmth and laughter. On the playground, there were slides, seesaws, and swings. Kids had fun there under teachers’ supervision and gradually started building their most pure friendships.

The kids would leave kindergarten someday and let life take them in different directions. However, Snowy Lionet already knew that Fina was its destiny. It would follow Fina forever.

Snowy Lionet started to get dizzy and almost fell off the seesaw. Seeing that, Fina slowed down and the seesaw finally stopped.

“My Majesty! This is so much fun!” Snowy Lionet was thrilled that Fina agreed to get on the seesaw. Since Fina had considerately slowed down when Snowy Lionet felt dizzy, the pretty white cat was on top of the world.

Fina had fun too. It didn’t say so because it had to keep its pride in front of Snowy Lionet. Jumping down from the seat, it headed towards the classroom with its tail whipping.

Since the outside gate wasn’t locked, Fina learned the trick. It pushed on the classroom door and the door opened. Fina stepped back immediately as the door opened because a ton of dust fell down.

Snowy Lionet came forward and waved its paw to clear the dust for Fina.

The classroom was dark, but this was not a problem for cats.

By the time the dust had settled, Fina already had a good idea of what the classroom looked like. Some small chairs and desks were laying around. Tons of colorful small toys were stacked in one corner, which were extremely dirty. An award form on which teachers put red stars to represent the award was on the wall. Some red stars had fallen down on the ground and the writing was vague after all this time.

There was a thick layer of dust on the ground and papers everywhere. It looked like this kindergarten had been abandoned for a long while, and seldom did people come in.

Looking at the dirty indoors, Snowy Lionet said to Fina, “My Majesty, let’s go back. It is dirty inside.”

Fina nodded. There was no reason for them to go in.

As they were about to leave, a breeze came through. Some papers were picked up by the wind and danced in the air. One flew straight at Fina’s face. Fina was fast. It swatted down the paper with one paw. The paper was pinned on the ground.

Fina noticed the paper was a page from a diary. There was a picture drawn in colorful crayons with a line of children’s handwriting underneath.

There was a little boy in the picture. A small circle represented his head. A few small short lines represented his hair and a large oval represented his body. Extending from the body, there were four long lines, which were the arms and legs.

The picture was titled, “My Mom”.
