Today had started as a pretty good day..woke up..went to midvalley with friends..had lunch..catched a horror movie...screamed alot throughout the movie..on the way home..i called my dad...and...he told me something that i never thought would happen so soon.."Boi's dead..."
Boi?
It took me a minute to have the thought sink into my brain...
Boi.
My dog..my loveable..loyal and very lazy labrador that came into our lives in a sudden and never left us ever since..until now..
I blinked in disbelief.
"What?" I mumbled, sinking into my chair.
"Boi is dead." Dad repeated..
I remember when boi first came into our lives.1 of our dogs just passed away in the vet and the doctor offered boi for adoption..boi was abandoned by his previous owner..we took him home though our parents doubt he'll be obedient...boi proved them wrong and soon my parents loved him more than ever...he was the best dog we could ever wish for..
I used to always sit on him(dun worry he wasnt squashed by my weight..)..play with him..talk to him..but after awhile..i just stopped spending time with boi..i regret spending more time using the computer rather than spending time with boi..I knew he was old...almost 5 years old...yet i diddn't expect him to be so near to death so soon..
I miss the times he would just sit beside me and look at me with pitiful eyes whenever i eat my breakfast on the table outside..I miss hugging him when i feel down..I miss patting his head and just watch his tail wag lazily..I miss ordering him to do tricks and have him ignore me..I miss talking to him while he was sleeping..I miss the times when i would just take any food i can find and literally make him beg for the food..I miss the times i have to chase after him whenever he ran out of the house..I miss hauling his ass back into the house after chasing him..I miss listening to his whimpers and howls everytime it rains..I miss seeing him sleep the whole day away..I even miss screaming at him for bitting my sandals when he was young..
I can shut my eyes and see every part of him..I can start from his long nails and those big bony brown paws that he never quite grew into..I can work my way up his chubby front legs which only looked gold from a distance..close up they were chestnut and brown and every colour in between..I can picture his white fuzzy chest, and how when you rubbed his head ,his tail will wag lazily..and those deep brown eyes that seems to pierce through the coldest of hearts..
I can go on like this for the whole dog..I can tell you about every inch, from the scar spot on his legs to the reason behind his laziness..I can tell you where that tail started from and where it ended up..I can bore anyone who's daft enough to listen on the subject and still have stories to tell..But none of it will ever bring him back..
Boi..u will forever be in my heart and memories..i will never forget you..my only wish now is for u to rest peacefully...u've had a painful past before u entered our household and i hope that u've enjoyed yourself throughout the 3 years in our family..
I will never ever forget u Boi..for u will always..forever..be my Boi..
