During the month of November I found a female dog - which everybody loved in the flat & who used to sleep on our seat covers of the vehicles was pregnant. After some days she gave six beautiful puppies. All of us loved them & all the puppies were too cute. One was white, another cream colored, and two brown ones, one completely black & sixth one black with brown scalps. We stored so many photographs of them & everyday after getting up our first work used to be feeding all the puppies. Then it had become their routine to follow residents whenever they climbed down the stairs. They became part of our life, and one starry night I heard their sound of crying. The white one was crying a lot. Someone forgot and closed the main gate and these puppies were outside with their mom. They were shivering. I got up immediately and opened the main gate. All of them started to kiss me. Someone arranged one mat for them also.
Whenever I came from the office the black with brown scalps always followed me and it was very near to my heart. One day someone from another society took away the white one, boys from our block took her back. One servant who used to work at my neighbor’s house suggest someone from her family to take away black one, as they believe in superstition that black one might bring good luck to them. So now there remained five. After couple of months one day I found two of them missing - my favorite black with brown scalp & the brown baby. No my three puppies as well as me are missing them.
This is the truth – which comes in life, also goes away. But they are still in our memories & memories never die. Dogs are your best friends, always love them.
