    Momo was a black cat with a curious nature. He lived in a small house with his family, but he always wondered about the world outside.

    Abbey was Momo's best friend. She was only four years old and loved playing with Momo. Their bond was strong, and they were inseparable.

    One day, someone accidentally left the door open. Momo saw his chance and dashed out before anyone could stop him.

    When Abbey realized Momo was gone, she was heartbroken. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she called out for him, but there was no sign of Momo.

    Abbey's mother tried to comfort her, saying they would find Momo soon. They spent the next three days searching for him around the neighborhood.

    On the third night, as Abbey was about to go to bed, she heard a familiar meow at the door. Her heart skipped a beat.

    Abbey rushed to the door and there he was, Momo, looking tired, hungry, and a little scared. She scooped him up in her arms, her eyes filled with relief and happiness.

    Abbey's mother hurriedly prepared some food for Momo. He devoured it, showing how hungry he had been on his little adventure.

    From that day onwards, Momo never showed any interest in going outside. He seemed content with his life inside the house.

    Abbey was just happy to have her best friend back. She promised to take better care of Momo and make sure he never ran off again.
