The city is larger…. I turned to look at the pointy grey towers staring down at me.
I will find out where these large giants come from.
I walked and walked until I reached the city's heart, where the magnificent skyscrapers sat straight up into the sky. Staring at the top of a tower that is disappearing and reappearing from the clouds, I tilted my head, confused about how the tower grew to be taller than anything else. That was a mystery for later.
Without much care, I meandered through the city at my own pace for two nights. Sometimes, I ran with all my speed, curving through street crowds, imagining an angry person chasing me. Sometimes, I barked at other dogs, teasing them for still being on a leash. Sometimes, I ran up to people to let them pet me until they gave me a little treat. Sometimes, I lie down on the lawns of random parks to stare at the migrating clouds.
But other times, I felt lonely and worried about my survival on the streets with no stable friends to guide and reassure me. Tonight, I knew by instinct I needed to determine the rest of my fate.
What will you choose to do?
