The Pink Bunny

The Pink Bunny

            She stared at the stuffed animal with her eyes widened. It’s a bunny. But it’s in pink. MinMin is a girl but pink is the only colour that she hates. It’s like she got some kind of allergy to that colour. There isn’t any of her clothes in the wardrobe that is pink.

            She focuses her gaze on that plushie that she could bore two holes on it with her eyes. The bunny is a present gave to her from her uncle. She got it that evening. It is almost as big as she is and it is cute. She doesn’t like the bunny but it’s not that she hates it. Even if she hates it, she can’t do anything because the pink stuffed toy is now in her room, on her bed. She let out a sigh.

            It has been half an hour since she started staring at the bunny. If only the bunny can talk, it would have scolded her for staring to it like that. She examined it like what a mother-in-law would do to her future-daughter-in-law.

            She touched the ears. Well, there are two of them, pink in colour, but the inner ear is in white and they’re also long. The ears are soft and the fur is silky. She likes the feeling of touching it.

            MinMin then sets her fox-like eyes on the bunny’s face. It is also in pink. The bunny got a pair of shining brown orbs. A small black nose is perfectly placed in between its eyes and mouth. The mouth is smiling to MinMin. Unconsciously, the corner s of her heart-shaped lips rises. The touched those chubby squooshy looking cheeks of the bunny and she liked it.

            The bunny got a white pink section on its belly. It’s soft and puffy. She held the bunny’s hands. They are fleecy and flocculent. She then moved to its feet. Although they’re in pink, they’re fury and fluffy. She suddenly feels like hugging it.

            She takes the plush toy and hugs it. She likes it. MinMin then cuddles, snuggles, and nestle the pink toy that she doesn’t like an hour ago.

            MinMin likes the stuffed toy now. No, actually, she loves it now and she’s very thankful to her uncle for giving her that plushie. She actually thinks that pink isn’t as bad as she thought. That night, MinMin gets a new friend and also a new favorite colour.
