Momo's Story (3)

[Momo's narration]

Look at my cute babies! For a while we spent our happiest days; each kid became bigger and more active day by day.

However, these happy days did not last long. Our family could not afford to raise all four kids, and our parents began to look for step-families for three of our kids.

Thus, around the middle of December, our kids began to disappear; and Uchii parents were very careful not to let me notice that. First, the brown male who had a tentative name "Cha". Then the black male "Kuro". I had never imagined Kuro's cute ribbon around his neck meant "Farewell".

Finally, after some time, the snow-white female "Shiro" found her step-family. She was the smallest and the calmest among our kids, and her character resembled most to mine. I hope all of them are happy now with their families!

Although all three are gone, I still have another brown male "Kuri" whom you may already know. One of Uchii daughters insisted to retain him; he was indeed cute when he was a kid, but he is now twice as big as myself.

Kuri, about 3 months old

Let's have a break here. I have many other things to tell, but I'll leave them for another occasion.
