He was named by accident-- just because he startled me catching me quite unaware each time I lit the stove "JEEEEEEEEEEZUS!" I would thus proclaim as he scurried from my grill-- this happened once too frequently my exclamation stayed the same so "Jesus" is what he is named-- accidentally. He appeared for every meal sputtering of smoke and heat tiny rodent paw to mouth choking on the smoke beady eyes accusing me I scolded him "We have to eat!" and pointed out the obvious he must be indulging too, he nodded, waiting patiently for his home to cool. He grew accustomed to my voice He slowed in his retreat. I swore I saw the curious as he turned to look at me. Once I left him a snap bean because he likes them fresh. I turned my back and it was gone, I calmly smothered down the rest thinking surely I'm insane. I thought I'd try some reasoning as I reached for seasoning to add into my pot of beans-- "Jesus? I know you are there, so listen to me please. I cannot live with rodent hair accumulating in my stove. It's just not good for you or me-- and you know, the door's right there. So spare us both the agony and go back to your family." Jesus didn't answer me. So I shrugged it off. Next day following I spied Jesus brave enough to stay in the midst of kitchen tile as I brewed my morning juice of "get up and go". "This has gone on way too long-- look at YOU--you're spoiled and fat. Some might take you for a slob-- you should at least look for a job and go out on your own." Jesus simply blinked at me. I resolved to end this soon. My daughter ran to me one day, proclaiming most excitedly, "I saw Jesus, way up CLOSE!" She informed me he is cute. I nodded, saying yes I knew. But I know just what I know-- that Jesus has his followers - worried we'd be over-run, I talked of poison packages death without the blood. Then my son did interject, and pointed out the Judas fate, and asked me most mischievious, "Cooking a last supper, mom?" I paled and thought, "not me." So now I'm in this quandary in need of some advice. I thought I'd buy a trap humane (knowing such does not exist) pondering complicity of differences 'tween mice and men-- I realized that all is vast-- and yet I think there's no small thing-- the sacred looms voluminous by virtue of remaining hid. |

I was hoping when I got home to see the resident mouse has made a re-appearance. This is my favorite cute story of yours, and there are many. |
