FRIEND OF ALL
COMPANIONSHIP AND LOYALTY;
There lived a well-off family in a rich community. They were family of four.
Mr.Stitch along with his wife Mrs. Raile Stitch had twins.
There was nothing that could be named which they didn't possess. They had huge house, three luxurious cars, two women and three men working in their house and two personal drivers.
Mr. Stitch was great, humble, learning and busiest person among the family who strived to multiply his assets.
Mrs. Stitch was busy lady attending her kitty parties in the club house, making new friends and spending lavishly every single penny earned by Mr. Stitch.
The two girls were brought up by the lady, one amongst the two working women in their house. Emma and Emily were young, lovable girls. They had the attitude of loving and helping others unlike their mother. But their father didn't much care for the girls as he was loving his only business and his deals with people.
Now the readers will question who is the hero of the story?
Once when Mrs.Stitch was attending the kitty party in the club, she saw a lady with her dog which was beautifully groomed and was looking lovely wearing a cute pink sweater made especially for the dog.
She observed that the lady was getting too much of attention because of the dog in the party and everybody were loving to approach her and have the sweet talk that the ladies do.
Mrs. Stitch got so much obsessed with her that she immediately thought of having one for herself. After the party got over she rushed to a pet store and without any delay she bought a month old Labrador along with its supplies to home.
The moment Emma and Emily saw mother walking it home they flung on the dog, laying their hands over it, lifting it and hugging it one after the other. The two girls were very happy and so seemed the dog too. They decided together and named it Puffy.
Mrs.Stitch didn't care much about the love poured on Puffy, she only cared was making it pretty and cute so that she could show case her whenever she went out or when people came to visit her.
So Hi, I am Puffy and welcome to my story. You might have had clear picture about my family who brought me into this huge house, now read further to know my story.
I was very happy. Days passed, months passed, I got so much love from the two girls but not that much from my mother. I tried and tried to impress her but she never noticed. Even if she did sometimes, I wanted more of it.
The girls used to take me for walk in the evenings, play and train me. I loved their presence but that too was not for long, when they started going to high school and got busy with their schedule.
Once, the girls played the whole day with me after so long time but I didn't realize then that they were going to leave me in no time for higher studies.
I saw them walking away with trolleys and bags as if they were to come back after very long time. My heart ached watching them go. I was whining the whole day. Mr.stitch for the first time came and sat beside me, patted me and spent some time with me. I felt he understood me but was helpless.
After the girls left I felt so lone. Mother never allowed me to lick her. She would push me whenever I came close to her. I never understood why she brought me if she didn't like me.
After an year passed, mother stopped taking me to out. May be because now I wasn't that small. I have now grown tall and big. I barked loudly and called for love may be that was annoying my mother and she felt as if I am a nuisance to be around.
I now realize she always wanted a small dog which could be fancied and which had low voice but as I grew bigger and barked loudly she stopped caring about me.
When I was small she took me along with her everywhere like her handbag, show casing my cuteness. But now she doesn't allow people to come closer saying I would bite them.
I used to sit in backyard and play with the flies which hovered on me.
But the great part was my food. They never delayed in serving me my food. It was the same taste but delicious every time I had.
One fine morning, I saw father leaving early somewhere. Then mother came in, took me along with her. I thought we were going for a ride. I was rejoiced as I was going to sit in the car after so many months.
Soon we reached a park which was so beautiful, I saw people walking, some along with their pets and some with babies in strollers.
I saw mother walking off towards the car. I ran behind her but in no moment she started the car and drove.
It took time for me to understand that I was left behind. Mother left me here. She took me along with her not for a ride which I was feeling happy about but to get rid of me.
I ran and followed her. Suddenly everything turned red I couldn't see anything my eyes were closing, my legs were hurting, I couldn't see mother's car, I couldn't run, all I could do was just lay in middle of the road.
When I opened my eyes I was laying beside a trash bin in a corner. My leg was covered with some cloth which was smelling really bad. I saw a lady approaching me, she laid hands on my leg. I was whimpering and barking thinking she saved me as well as she might harm me. I quickly sniffed her presuming to know her but she happened to be a stranger.
She kept a small bowl in-front of me which had some white colour like water in it. It was something like milk but didn't really taste good. I drank it all because I was thirsty as I ran long following mother.
She started cleaning my body, she was caring for me. I could sense it through her touch. That touch which Emma and Emily had. I missed them. If they hadn't left me, may be I was in that huge house playing around and having my favorite food.
After some time there came a small truck which was smelling so bad. It was a trash truck. She took me inside the truck. It was very difficult for me to understand their language and the place where they were taking me.
The truck stopped, she carried me like the smaller one which mother was carrying in her arms.
It was very small space inside, she made a corner for me and laid me there. It felt so congested inside unlike that huge house where I could jump and play around happily.
Reminiscing all the good days I had with the girls I went into a power nap. When I woke up I saw the bin woman looking at me. She didn't look like my mother who was clean, poised, who had lovely perfume smell. I was frightened, I wanted my mother, that huge house, that smell, that backyard. I started barking at her. I couldn't walk, I couldn't run I tried all along but I failed. The bin woman started patting my back. She then placed the same bowl which this time had some hard food in it, I was hungry I couldn't help my taste buds which missed its favorite food.
I missed everything I had in that huge house but her care changed me.
Every single day I had that milk and hard food which I started liking it somehow because bin woman never left my side while I was having. She watched me, pampered me, took care of my leg, she was just one bark away. And I loved that whenever I started barking she was right in front of me. with all the love and care she gave me, in no time I started walking and running again.
I started loving that corner place of mine which had ripped sheets over for me to sit on it.
I started liking her smell. She never stopped me when I wanted to lick her. She played with me and took me for walk along with her to collect the trash.
I loved going with her house to house, door to door. I used to bark and call them out to bring the dustbin. Few waited outside their house to come and see me. It became my daily routine.
Whenever she got anything to eat she offered me. We both shared everything.
The way she took time to play with me,
The way she tried to keep me safe,
The way she never left me alone,
The way she introduced me to others,
The way she cleaned my body before hers,
For all that I had lost and for all that she gave me, I loved her in every single way. I found my companion and offered all my loyalty to her.
My life somehow changed from going to kitty parties to collecting the dust bin. I had luxuries in that house but here I have love and affection. I never felt she didn't want me for a second. She loved me every single way and I accompanied her everywhere.
And so we lived happily ever after collecting the dustbins and sharing our small space.
So here as a blogger I ask you, whom would you blame ? Mrs. Stitch? Mr.Stitch ? Or the two girls who left her? Or it was dogs fate to find the companion. I leave it to your attitude and your understanding.
For all those who want to adopt a dog just was because you fancy it, Don't do it. Only if you are an animal lover do it. Because every creature in this world let it be the fancy dog of the rich or the street dog deserves love.
If you are in search of companion and loyalty remember every other creature in this planet is searching too.
Because Puffy learnt about the fake love of Mrs.Stitch it could make difference about what true love is.
Be it fake companionship and their fake offers to make use out of you, you will always come to know the difference and find True companion if you are true enough. So being thankful to everyone is all you can do.
Life is all about "what" difference you make out of it.
Fantastic writing
