公園へ向かう途中の道を、猫が横切りました。わざと道の反対側から出てきてウォーウォー唸って、タイガを睨みつけながら横切ります。タイガは緊張の意味でシッポを左右に振り続けています。
On our way to the park, a cat crossed the road in front of us. He was growling all the time. What's more, he was initially sitting on the other side of the road and, only after we got closer, he started to cross the road. Taiga began wagging her tail as a sign of alertness.
まるでタイガを待ち伏せるかのように、民家の駐車スペースに入ったまま動きません。
The cat went into the parking space of a house and stayed there as if to ambush Taiga.なるべく刺激しないように慎重に通り過ぎます。
We passed by trying not to provoke him.
For Taiga, who had been bored walking the familiar road, this encounter might have been a welcome diversion.
公園に着いてブラブラしていたら、ヒナとセナがやって来ました。義理堅いヒナは耳を倒してタイガに甘えるような挨拶をします。
When we arrived at the park, we were joined by Hina and Sena. Hina is a very loyal individual and greeted older Taiga with respect.
いつもの追いかけっこ。
Sena was standing aloof all the time and Hina came to see what was wrong with her.
セナはもう十分運動したのか、誘いにのりません。
