My Heart Is at Peace

This article tells a tender story about waiting, loss and reunion from the unique perspective of a cat named "Zhuangzhuang" (formerly known as Xiaodai). The owner's family left him to look after the family before setting off on their trip to the glacier, promising to return soon. However, they were unexpectedly killed in a snowstorm and could never return home. In the empty house, Zhuang Zhuang gradually fell into despair from the initial wait. Driven by hunger, he learned to open the refrigerator, prey on the fish in the fish tank, and struggled to survive alone. When the owner's elderly mother, an old lady who had also lost all her close relatives, opened the door with a key, the two lonely lives began a difficult run-in. The old man stroked the cat that had witnessed the whole family's laughter with trembling hands, and gradually melted Zhuangzhuang's guard with his son's old clothes and gentle company. They adopted stray kittens together and established a new emotional bond by relying on each other day after day. As time goes by, Zhuangzhuang enters old age from his prime, and the old lady becomes weaker and weaker. When the old man finally passed away, the seventeen-year-old Zhuang Zhuang dragged his sick body and found the cemetery based on his memory. He huddled quietly in front of the tombstone of the owner's mother and fell asleep forever with his hands on his hands. The next day, a kind neighbor discovered it and buried it next to the old lady - the life that had embraced each other in the photo finally reunited in another way. The story uses the pure perception of cats to reflect the depth of human emotions, conveying loyalty and love that transcend species between life and death.
