We're not sure who exactly Mommy is celebrating the V-Day with this year. We mean, other than with us. She always manages to abduct a male specimen at the very last minute when she needs one. But none really sticks longer than a week. Even Uncle Lecturer last a little over two months, and he was her college crush. We didn't even get through the orientation phase.
The only guy who keeps coming back to her, even as we speak, would be her first real boyfriend, ex-Daddy. They've been in an on-off relationship since the end of 1999 and right now, they're "just friends with benefits", as Mommy often puts it. He's the only one we're comfortable with. While we hate strangers to the point of hiding in the dark the whole day, we can roll on our back and doze off in his arms without hesitation. Ex-Daddy never fails to give us a good scratch on our back for hours! In fact, we overheard Mommy making a pact with him recently, entrusting him with custody of the two of us in account of Mommy's demise. Yup, she wanted to make sure we won't be left on the street as strays should anything happen to her, and she just can't trust anyone else, including her own family and friends.
Therefore, V-Day for us is Mommy's Day. Mommy, we love you forever and ever (and even more if you give us that scrumptious canned food more often!). We hope that our Mommy would find The One for her soon.
(Well, to be frank, we wished it would be ex-Daddy, but then again, it's really up to her, isn't it?)
