猫和老鼠经典诗句英文

When Jerry was all grown up, Tom was no longer in this world.

When Tom knew that he was about to die, he quietly left Jerry, because he didn’t want Jerry to see him weak and sickly. Tom only wanted to be Jerry’s opponent. When Tom left Jerry, Jerry didn’t feel sad, just very bored, because fighting with Tom was a very thrilling game. Even though his heart was uneasy, exactly why that was, Jerry didn’t know. It was just as Tom had hoped, in Jerry’s heart, he was just a fighting buddy with whom Jerry didn’t get along.

One day, a cat appeared before Jerry.

That cat was smaller than Tom, slower.

Jerry, who was lonely because Tom had passed away, wanted to make this cat his new fighting buddy. Thus, Jerry wanted to use a mouse trap to trap the cat, just as he had done to Tom before. So, Jerry hid behind a corner, waiting for that cat to come.

Just as he thought, the cat walked toward the mouse trap.

Jerry was very excited.

Just as always, pretending to be trapped by the trap, but only to trap that cat.

Hehehehe.

He thought of the enraged expression on that cat’s face.

But that cat wasn’t Tom. When that cat got near the mouse trap, he smelled the scent of a mouse, and pranced toward Jerry, who was hiding.

Jerry ran, as he did when Tom used to chase him.

But he was bitten hard, by the cat that was supposed to be slower than Tom.

Even though Jerry bit back, that cat was immovable.

When Jerry was almost dying, he realized. A mouse could never win against a cat. Tom didn’t catch him on purposed; he was faking being defeated by Jerry every time.

Jerry realized Tom’s friendship, and understood that the reason that he was in agony when Tom died was that he had lost an important friend.

When Jerry’s soul rose up to the heavens, Tom was smiling in the sky, waiting for him.

“We can fight again.”

“This time, I will definitely catch you.”
