Dog Trilogy!
I am a big dog lover and I believe dogs are the best creation of God! These three 55 fictions deal with various shades of canine love :)
My Son!
A
Mercedes stopped and old suitcases, his late wife's photo along with his frail
self were kicked out. He requested with painful eyes but the black window
glasses rose up in arrogance. The car sped away, leaving only dust, behind
which he saw that furry tail wagging lovingly. Chocking in throat, he
cried ‘my
son!’
Buddy!
Again, as he entered after a tiring day, the silence was
haunting. Two sullen women pottering around like black clouds ready to burst!
He knew of their daily drama hence avoided his mother and wife’s dirty fights
and constant grumblings. Pretending to sleep till dinner; lying alone cuddling
his dog, he muttered...
‘oh buddy!’
The
girl was mere a hideous worm or dirty baggage for ‘nai mummy’ whom papa was
much enamored with. Weeping alone all afternoon, she pressed a photograph to
her chest and recalled evenings’ playing with her mother in park. It entered
excitedly holding her ball in its jaw. Hugging her dog tightly she cried ‘mammaaa’!
('nai' means new)

EVER ' GONE TO DOGS' ??
There is no dearth of interesting things; we just have to look around ourselves, focus a bit and keep our senses open. After so many days and couple of sketches I felt like writing a post, (which is also my first love!) but today I could not stop myself from expressing through words what I felt. It has made me happy, elated and yes, more sensitive too. The matter is very simple but is quite deep. What happened is...
We have many stray dogs in our colony. One such stray, quite young (btw, it’s my fav too) gave birth to one pup. Surprising but yes. Not a litter but just one pup. Another such stray too gave a litter (let’s call it Monty). The only pup of the first one (I call it Tommy) expired after a day. And since motherly love knows no bounds, our Tommy was depressed like any thing. It stopped eating and refused to part with its dead pup. Then what happened, a twist in the story followed. The second stray Monty met with a car accident and died on the very spot, leaving behind three cute 4-days old pups. Tragic, but what to do. We (me and my auntie) tried our level best to take care of those innocent, hapless creatures. Then, Tommy adopted them, fed them and took care of them like a mother. I was really astonished and surprised. I sat down to write this post as soon as I returned after spending my daily quota of time with Tommy and her new family.
We are humans, (supposedly) much more intelligent than other beings, but we use all our extra intelligence in vices, crimes, and all sorts of devilish activities.

( real pic of one of the pups)This act of kindness by my sweet Tommy always reminds me of Puja (name changed), one of my old school classmates. Her mom died when she was 2 and her father remarried a year later. Her step mom made her life miserable by inflicting mental torture on the poor girl, while her father chose to look other way. Many a time I found Puja really apprehensive on returning back home after school and what not; let me not get to the horrid details I know as one of her good friends. Later I came to know from somewhere that she was married off as soon as her BA got over.
We humans, the super intelligent and the most evolved, are worst than dogs and other animals when kindness and humanity is concerned. If you watch carefully, only humans kill or torture another being for fun and draw a certain kind of satisfaction from cruelty, something which no other animal does. Animals kill only for food or in self defense.
