”Cheese... Meat... Fruits... Grains...”

Tarou's eye bulged as he looked at the heaps of food in front of him.

”Cheese... Meat... Fruits... Grains...”

'Which one should I eat first?'

Tarou closed his eyes and allowed his paw to make the choice but before he could grab a handful of food, a loud sound startled him and his magnificent hoard disappeared.

”My foooood!!!!!!” Tarou screamed. When he opened his eyes, he saw a hoof descending on him, ready to stomp him to death. Suddenly pumped up, Tarou quickly dodged the hoof only to be subjected to a barrage of more hoof attacks.

”What is your problem!!!” he squeaked while trying to find the best place to hide in the stable. Seeing the threatening hooves which aimed at him, he panicked and stiffened. Not knowing what to do, Tarou called out in a loud squeak.

”Boss!!!”

The door to the stall opened and the enraged horse planning to stomp him to death was startled. Finally, someone was here to save him. He knew Boss would rush to his rescue.

'Boss, you care for me after all!' Tarou thought, thanking his lucky stars for allowing him to befriend a cat. So, when he caught a familiar lemongrass scent, he was surprised.

'Barca?'

Well, it didn't matter if his savior was human or cat. Without wasting time, Tarou ran out of the stall. Knowing that this human was friendly, he even squeaked to announce his presence.

Barca looked at him and nodded in reply before moving closer to Nightmare.

'This human is really friendly! No wonder the high-pitched mouse I just met was crazy about this man,' Tarou thought while looking at Barca who crouched down to check on the horse using the light from a lamp.

Meanwhile, Tarou stayed outside the stall where it was safe. Everything that happened after he woke up was a blur and he barely had time to catch his breath. All he remembered was the violent attacks when he woke up.

Today has been a long day for him and Tarou tried to wait for Boss in the stables. Unable to locate the cat, he stayed in a stall where he unknowingly fell asleep. The next thing he knew, there was a hoof descending on him with the aim of crushing him to death.
