A woman attempts to get the attention of her husband and grows tired of trying, so she must find a substitute for the missing piece that is in her heart.  But where can she find something she can pour her affections to, then she thinks she saw a cat in the rain.  Could the cat be a cure for her lonesome heart?

He was reading again.

Writers Note
