That Day I Became Color Blind

The cute fat mouse, Gerry runs over the tables.

I can't believe how that small hind legs of his were able to carry his big tummy and run so fast as if an agile grasshopper!

He Jumped over the walls and even uses the curtain string to avoid the Old cat Tommy whom were gasping loudly, seemingly almost dead from exhaustion.

It is surprising that the string did not break from the sheer weight of Gerry.

The two had always been running around this place ever since I got here.

"Hmmm... Speaking of which... The first time I arrived here, Gerry was the first one to greet me and introduced me to Hiddlestone."

Yes! I remember that day so vividly!

When I woke up from my deep slumber, of which I had no idea how long it was—It felt like I had gone blind.

I can not see properly!

As if I am color blind!

But, that shouldn't be the case!

I know myself very well to the point that even if I made someone smell a hundred farts, my fart would be distinguishable from the rest!

It was that simple, very distinct if I had to describe myself. That is what I would say.

Anyway, to describe further what kind of color blind I am seeing...

It's like a red-green color blindness! I had difficulty identifying the colors in my peripheral visions and no matter what I did, It was all the same.

The shades of green, red and yellow were of no different.

Apart from having to deal with my vision deficiency. A thick foul smell assaulted my nostrils. The smell was awful! definitely suffocating to bear! The smell is easily just the same as a piss and stool combined together or like three weeks of undisposed baby diapers!

Fucking Disgusting I know! and the feeling I got? It's as if there was a strong hand gripping my neck until all I can see is white bubbles!

Those were just the beginning of the hardships I suffered upon waking up.

Fortunately, even if the vision were quite inefficient, I soon found out that my hearing were superb and it felt like I can see everything with my...

...BIG—

...FLUFFY—

...EARS—

"...Wait a damn minute!"

'Something is fucking wrong!'

Yes! At that time everything felt different.

Also, it felt as if there's some tickly sensation around or above my lips. But somehow, it felt like the tickly sensation guides me and that I can trust it a hundred percent, even with my dear life!

'No!'

'Why am I feeling this way?'

*Squeak! squeeeaaaaak!*

"Hey! What was that?!"

At that time I can't understand it yet.

But soon, everything became clear upon hearing something.

Alerted by that noise, I got nervous for I am very familiar of that sound. I know that sound very much!

*Squeak!*

"It resounds again."

It was at this moment that I panicked. Along with the rattling noises, as if something is fast approaching. When I tried to listen to it more attentively, I realized that i can quite understand what it says.

Like the tone of the sound spells distress, as if a very urgent cry or wail.

'Heck! No! Why can I understand it?'

'Isn't this sound similar to a...'

I squinted my eyes, still adamant to rely on my eyesight.

And there I saw it!

"FUCKING DARN IT!!! THAT'S A FUCKING MOUSE!"

"HELP!"

"MAMA!"

Unknowingly, I had let out a series of shrill yelping sounds, begging for help. But what I did only made the situation worsen!

That mouse!

It was my first time to witness a gigantic mouse of that size! It was as big as me! I could not put my mind on how on earth did that freaking hellish mouse reached that size?!!!

While running, surprisingly, I discovered that my footsteps were light! Perhaps if I tried to play basketball and try to dunk, I could fly high and reach the ring with no effort at all.

Too bad, currently I was running for my dear life.

And it didn't take long before I realize what kind of disaster this was.

The road where my feet is running at...

It looked black, dirty and murky.

While at it, I scanned my surroundings and there it scared me...

Dozens of red light flashing!

Many pairs of eyes staring at me...

"Fucking hell!"

I can't calculate how many they were but looking at those many eyes, it sent shivers at my spine.

"Those are fucking mice! And they were all fucking huge!"

Turns out, the cry I made a while ago called them out. So one by one, they all came to me fast like there is an incoming stampede and their destination is me.

"Damn it!"

Cursing out loud is the only thing left for me to do. At instant, I knew my dear life is over. Looking back and fort, those huge thing were too big but also fast.

"Is this some fucking dream?! Anyone?!"

I begged to anyone, to everything...

"God! Help me!"

When humans felt despair, they cling to anything to feel safe. Somehow, it was like an innate trait. That sole act of desperation to cling into something.

To anything.

To hope.

To refuse the grim fate awaiting...

Even to a God I barely know, I tried to ask. But the rodent is already near. This is only a narrow straight path with both ends blocked by them.

My feet got tangled and I felt like falling...

No, to be precise, I stumbled to the floor.

Only then did I noticed that it was very comfortable running with both my feet and hands beating the ground.

'No... Why is that?'

My logical mind seeks to understand.

First it was my vision, then that tickly feeling. Also my ears...

Just to confirm, I tried to get a feel of my ears. And there I was...

Producing the very same cry I heard.

*Squeak!?*

My heart beat drummed chaotically. Sweat began to drip. All hairs at my end probably rose! I took a deep look at my hands as my running came into a halt.

All my intent sharply plunged at the sight of my hands...

That was it!

Alternating between my hands to the rodents that was about to come near...

No, I can not deny it.

No matter how many times I switched at my hands to theirs...

"It's the same?"

The realization struck me like lightning. Defeated and it was difficult to accept. Right there, I collapsed with the fact now fully realized!

"Shit!"

Falling with my eyes closed, I can feel that I landed to something soft and bouncy.

How I dearly wished it was a pair of busty boobs.

Unfortunately, when I took a sneak peak, it was damn disappointing. At that moment, I wished I never opened my eyes.

—A hairy fat tummy.

It was Gerry's tummy that caught my head.

Too ridiculous to admit, but that was Gerry.
