I killed a cat

I did. I heard the thud underneath the car. Now I don’t think I can look at the lower portion of my car for a long time.

Almost 11pm na, maulan, madilim at madulas ang daan sa Daang Hari. I think I was running at about 70km/h — slower than usual kasi nga low ang visibility. At a split second, biglang may pusang tumawid sa harapan ko. Tinapakan ko yung preno pero di ako nag-full stop, hoping na makabalik yung pusa sa gilid ng daan just in time. Pero tumuloy sya, and so did I. Di ako pwedeng tumigil bigla at that speed. Baka dumulas ako, madisgrasya.

Hanggang sa huling segundo, umasa ako na sana nakaiwas sya. Pero hindi. Narinig ko yung tunog sa ilalim. Parang naramdaman ko pa nga na may tumama.

Aaaarrrrgh! Shit talaga. This is even worse than seeing roadkill. I feel terrible. I’m really sorry.
