A human?!… I could have a stable family and shelter! That is what I want. And so, I pranced straight to the person sitting on the bench. The person smiled politely and yelped in surprise when I jumped onto the same bench she was sitting on. Tentatively, I slowly nudged closer and closer to her, until she reached out her arms and gave me a hug.
For a moment, I was frozen in shock, then I melted into her gentle and motherly embrace. Pleased, I turned my head around to lick her as thanks. She giggled and ducked away and continued to hold me, rocking me like I had seen a human do with their baby.
Just as I thought my plan was succeeding, she put me back down onto the bench and blew a kiss to my forehead before standing up and waving back at me. This seems like a goodbye…No! I will follow this kind lady until she realizes she can keep me.
I followed and followed, while she glanced back at me multiple times. Finally, when she reached a crosswalk, she turned to face me. A confused frown on her face.
“You can take me to your home!” I barked out while pawing her shoes, trying to get her to understand me. After a few repetitions, I saw the frown transform into a smile.
“Yes! There we go!! Pick me up!!” I barked. She threw her head back from laughing before picking me up and crossing the road, towards what I guess is her home.
