She’s a 6 month old kitten, very intelligent and sneaky. She was sitting by a chair in my living room, I was talking to her while looking at her (I speak to her casually as if she’s a human) and she too was intently looking at me. Just at that moment, I left the living room and walked through a hallway that leads to my room, and when I reached my room’s door - I saw my kitten was already there, she walked up to me from inside the room and greeted me at the door. As if she had already been there for a long time before I entered. My jaw was on the floor and I couldn’t believe it.

It simply isn’t possible that she got to my room from the living room without me spotting her in the hallway. The hallway is straight, narrow, no hiding places, and I walked straight. It takes just 4-5 seconds to reach my room from the living room. I was also looking straight while walking, not busy in my phone or something. And there’s NO other way to reach my room other than the hallway. So how does this even happen? HOW? I even pinched myself to check that I ain’t dreaming.

I don’t smoke or drink, I am never high. This happened when I was in full consciousness. And I have only one cat.

After my ovulation, during luteal phase, I feel extreme hunger all day and nothing satiates me. I can keep eating all day, I feel like I need to just eat eat eat. Even the things I don’t like much. This phase lasts till my first day of period. Going through that right now. I also have mild PMDD so this is a symptom. I also feel lethargic easily during this time, so my body craves carbs & heavy meals.

What happened today - so last week my mom had bought 5 ice creams for everyone. Nobody ate any of them for a whole week. And I couldn’t control my cravings, even though I don’t like ice creams - I ended up eating 4 of them in the last 2 days. My mom asked me about it today and I told her that I have intense cravings these days so I ate it, and I also told her that I’ll order the same ice creams for everyone from blinkit, at that moment itself.

But my mom kept making me feel bad for that like I committed some crime. She counted all the ice creams I ate. Literally counted each one on finger and named them, mentioned their type. I felt really horrible even though it sounds funny. This is the same person btw who also body shamed me in teenage for being skinny, for not eating much. And now she sometimes mocks me for my increased meal portions. It’s also not like I am overweight, I am still on the lean side.

I know I shouldn’t have eaten it. But I am so embarrassed at how my mom counted it as if I am some beast/hulk. It’s literally just the increased cravings during my luteal phase. I feel like never eating anything she buys henceforth. Few minutes ago, I went to the kitchen to drink cold water from the fridge, I heard her walking towards the kitchen and I sprinted from there without drinking properly, to avoid getting embarrassed that I opened fridge again. I hate this feeling.
