The Day I Lost

I lived with my parents, grandmother, uncle, two aunts and two cousins to six. There were many people in our house. But I was always alone, because my father, uncle and two aunts went to work, and two older cousins went to school. My mother had a weak constitution, so she was entering hospital. My grandmother was only in our house, but she did all the household chores in large house by herself. Though I was little, I knew that she is so busy. So, I couldn't say any selfishness. To tell the truth, I wanted to spend with someone much more time. But I couldn't.

I had one more family. It was a cat named Mi. Mi was beside me for as long as I can remember. When I was playing house alone, before I know, Mi was sitting beside me quietly. I was glad that very much, because I got a guest to entertain with dishes I prepared as playing house. And I often had to go to bed alone. It was the loneliest time in a day. But in morning, I awoke to find Mi was sleeping in a same bed.

I have never thought that Mi is a pet. Mi is my older sister. Mi is precious figure for me. But one day, Mi ceased to be suddenly. Mi was killed in a car accident. It was just in front of our house. I was overwhelmed with terrible grief. I lost kind, gentle sister. I became real alone.

I'll never forget about Mi. She is my precious family member.
