After the flood incident, my mom friendship grew with doggie. ๐
She started sharing her pain, for being away from the family with doggie and continued to feed him. ๐ฅฐ
“I don’t know if he was listening to my stuff, but he never leave my side when I cry and complain.”
“I always believed he use to roam near me because he wants food.” ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
Then there was the day when finally nanaji came to take my mom back home (to Bihar). ๐
“I think doggie knew I was leaving, he was roaming around my luggages that was near the veranda.” ๐๐
Nanaji doubtingly asked my mom if the dog gonna bite. She assured nanaji that he is harmless.
They took rickshaw to the riverbank and doggie followed them. ๐ญ
They reached river bank, paid to rickshawala and were ready to cross the river, as the bus stand was on the other side of the river.๐จ
“As our boat took off, he jumped in the river too and started swimming to the other side๐ฃ.” as she continued, I couldn’t imagine how desperately doggie was trying, without getting emotional ๐ข.
“After we reached the other end, we stopped and looked back. Doggie was tired and couldn’t swim anymore. He returned back to the river side and was interminable crying.” ๐ญ๐ญ
“I clearly remember his eyes full of tears.” she was breaking down by now and so was I. ๐
“Your nanaji suggested that we should bring him with us but I denied.” ๐
“Let’s not do it, this is his hometown. He knows the people around here and could understand their language but if we take him away, he might start missing his home and might die due to depression.” she said to nanaji. ๐
“Anyway people won’t allow to carry dog in bus and he was not a pet dog, he love to roam around the village freely and independently. I just can’t take those little things away from him.” she added to justify her side. ๐
So, my mom left him behind and returned to her home. ๐
Animal could not speak but they have feelings… Nice one beta…
