Black Boa
Part Two:
She turned around, eager to see her white persian’s expression at the change. Stella was the only one shocked. Framed in the doorway was a massive, full—grown, white tiger. She softly whispered his name in disbelief. Upon hearing the loved and familiar voice, the tiger began rubbing itself gently on the girl.
Stella let her hand glide across the beautiful fur. It transformed flawlessly from white to black stripes. She listened to Moonlight’s deep, guttural purr. Once again change had tricked her.
Moonlight began gently to nudge his head against Stella’s hand. She looked and in his mouth was a long thin velvet leash. Stella shook her and backed up, eyes wide with horror. She could never take a tiger out onto the streets. It was dangerous, and she would probably be arrested!
Nevertheless, Moonlight persisted. And upon seeing his pleading crystal blue eyes, she could not refuse. She latched the leash onto his collar, pushed the boa across her shoulder, tipped her hat down defiantly, and proceeded to stare at the front door motionless.
Moonlight pulled on the leash, brushed by the door and they were on the streets. Stella stared in wonder at it all.
She shook her head, shameful at herself. If her house and cat changed, why should not the whole world join in the game?
The midday sun had given way to the ivory orb and the sky was alight with the stars. The streets and sidewalks seemed the same, yet they glowed with a hidden beauty. The street lamps were covered in black velvet, and the bulbs looked like stars fallen from the heavens. And the people! All playing the part they were given flawlessly. One woman was dressed darkly, with a leashed crocodile on tow. The baker looked ready for a ball with the librarian holding to his arm, her face flushed with pleasure. All around she saw people transformed. They all looked beautiful!
Moonlight began to pull roughly on the leash. He seemed to have a destination pre—planned. Stella let the tiger lead her. She had no fears when he stood by her.
He led her into the park. Stella gasped and clutched Moonlight for support. Never in all her life had she seen something so amazing! The trees glowed a deep emerald, their bark a brilliant ivory. The treetops were alight with small orbs dancing throughout the leaves. It looked like a fairy paradise.
Stella felt a presence behind her and whirled around. There in front of her was a boy, the same age as herself. He just stood there smiling at her. Stella noticed he too had a white tiger. She studied him for a long minute. His hair was a haphazard mixture of brown and blonde, his eyes were cobalt, his skin slightly tanned, and his perfect lips creased in that eternal smile. He was her total opposite.
He held out his hand and said, “My name’s Phil, well, actually my parents wanted to be original and gave me the name Astrophil, but you can just call me Phil. What’s your name?”
Stella shook his hand and stared, her mouth half open, unable to speak. Moonlight butted her in the middle of her back and she sputtered out, “Stella.”
Hope you guys are enjoying the read! Tomorrow's the finale.
