Who is your real friend?

Yesterday was the worst day in my life. I was so busy that I didn't even get time to stand up and breathe. My head was aching like anything and I felt it would break anytime. I dialed my boss couple of times but didn't get through. As it was minutes away from the meeting I didn't have any other choice other than attending the meeting. The client was so particular that they wanted requirements from our side that day itself and I was left with no option other than work. I had to work till 3 am to complete my task.

I don’t know how I drove back to home. I was so exhausted that I forgot to inform my parents about this. When I reached home my parents were waiting for me. They fired me left and right for being ignorant in informing them about my late work. But I couldn't reciprocate anything as my head was spinning so I promptly went to the bedroom. Again they confronted me and I said sorry for being late and requested them to discuss it tomorrow.

I had my nerve when they approached me again so I closed the door. All these time my tony (dog) was observing this. He was sitting on the other side of my bed observing my strange behavior. He was trying to keep as much as distance from me as if he understood everything. But I ignored him completely. I badly wanted to sleep and by this time I heard a knock again at my door for dinner and suddenly Tony became furious and jumped against my parents and started barking at them continuously. They got scared as it was first time he was behaving indifferent. I couldn't believe it was my tony. Anyway after that no one could scare to question me and I went to sleep.

Today morning when I woke up I was stunned to see him standing in front of my door and not allowing any one to enter my room. He was surprised to see me and jumped at me with happiness and licked all over my face as if he has got something precious.

 Still I couldn't get over my astonishment. I wonder how a dog can understand human emotions whereas others can’t.

  • It was a terrible day..but I compromised it on the morning :)
  • I'm so astonished about that Niki.. We all go through tough time sometimes, but we have to remember how to handle everything around us. 

    Sometimes you might feel the need to be alone for a while, as do I believe. I've learned that it's always better to be silent when we are not in our mood or when someone trying to irritate us rather than saying any hurtful word.

    and wow! That's great you've a special friend who can understand your feelings without you complain to him. Dogs are known to be very faithful to their owner, I've read many stories about dogs helping their friends.!

    Thanks for sharing that! I'm always happy to read from you :D

  • @Tree - What happened?Why are you missing your dog?
  • Niki, what a great friend you have. Your blog make me miss my doggy T_T

  • @Neda - Well said dear
  • Even dogs can reach our positive energy and send it back us one day! You once gave him passion and he sends u that now. this is circle of life as i believe!  

  • Great! I like the end of the story, I mean finding a compromise and a sweet kiss! As a a rule, mostly we have arguments with our closest people. But after some time we forgive each other and continue to love the most of all in the world!

  • @ Barbare - True dear :)I treasure those moments:)

    I love him but due to workload I never get time to care him :(

  • @ Galina - I understand dear, I used to share everything with my parents and that day I was totally frustrated and exhausted and I expelled all my anger on them when they come behind me asking thousand questions. But next day morning I compromised it with a sweet kiss :)

  • @ Tawfeeq - Sad but true :(
