h2>Dating : Chapter 6 — The Death Road
May 30, 2019
Today was not like any other day. My water bowl has been empty and no one came by to refill it. The two blue shirts men didn’t stop by to clean my kennel. The woman came and feed all the other dogs but didn’t feed me. Wolf told today was going to be my last day on earth. 😭 Hearing that made me felt so depressed. I believed in Honey and his promise that they will soon return for me. I believed in my owner. If today was going to be my last day, I wanted to howl out of my anger and sadness. I cried the loudest I could with hopes that it will bring my owner here. It didn’t seem to work, but at least each howl meant I am still alive and can dream on.
My brother didn’t even want to say goodbye to me because deep down both of us knew Wolf was right. I told my brother that Honey promised me they will come, but inside my heart, I don’t even believe in it myself. I told him how much I love him and how I sorry I am for bringing this life upon us. It was me who was the bad cop, always. I was the one who dug all of those holes underneath the fences. I was the one who ate all the food from the kitchen island, dining table, and kitchen. I was the one who ripped all blankets and pillows. But, I was never the one who was in trouble nor got punished. My brother was the one who took all the blames for all of my destructive works. He was the good cop who always was on the lookout for me. It was me who ran off that day to explore during our hiking trip. I wish I had listened to him and just stay on that trail. 😞
Spyro didn’t say a single word the whole day until two ladies came and take me away, probably because he really resented me. As they walked me out of the kennel, my brother barked the loudest and told me he “always love me regardless of everything I did.” We both gave each other the last goodbye kisses through his cage and out of the kennel I went. As I got dragged out through another door, I heard the saddest Spyro cried I had heard in my life. He howled and cried for the first time ever. It made me felt very guilty for all of the things I did. I never really appreciated his existence until now, but it was too late. We grew up together since the day we were born and today will be the last day we see each other. We both knew in our heart, this was it, our last moment together. I howled my last goodbye to him.
The two women put me into a car and off we went for a really long road trip. I didn’t care much about where we were going. My mind was occupied with regrets and resentments. I hated myself for everything I had done to my brother. I hated how I never really appreciated things until it went by.
We passed by several brown tall mountains. The air smelled really fresh through the car cracked windows and before you knew it we arrived at another kennel place. It looked just like where I just got out of except for all the dogs here looked a lot happier. Unlike Wolf, they were all excited to greet me. Every human here gave me pets and treats. I got put into this room and couple minutes a lady in a white coat walked in. She smiled, petted me, and told me how lucky I am. She complimented me on my look and said everything will be okay and soon enough I will have a wonderful family. Then she poked my ass with a needle and everything became hazing. I fell down onto the warm blanket. She sat next to me the whole time and petted me. I tried not to fall asleep because I really don’t want today to be my last day. I want to wait for Honey and the girl, but no matter how hard I tried, my eyes lid felt heavier and heavier. Before I knew it, everything turned black.
