Special Friends

A detailed Summary of Special Friends

I walked home from school, carrying a load of books on my aching shoulders. Each step I took was accompanied with a wish that I was already at home, resting on my cozy bed. As I dragged my foot along, I could see small pieces of dried tar rolling on the rough surface. Upon reaching my doorstep, I heaved a heavy sigh of relieve and pleasure. At last, I last reached my long waited destination; home. My red, sticky palm reached out for doorknob. I was about to set foot onto the warm shaggy carpet then I heard a soft whimper coming from behind me. When I turned to look for the source of the sound, I felt something fury brush past my ankle. Looking down at the fury thing, I was rooted to the ground. Right there, looking back at me, was a black puppy. Before I could even think of what to do next, the puppy ran into the kitchen. I heard my mother roaring in agony. I was given a five minute lecture. Although I explained that the puppy went into the house when I came home, my mother stubbornly came with the conclusion that I purposely let it in. After the lecturing, I was order to throw the puppy out of the house. Reluctantl

y, I brought it to the park near my house. I had brought along a can of canned beef. I gave the beef to the puppy and watched it devour it. I stroked the soft, smooth fury animal and said my goodbye, leaving the puppy behind. Surprisingly, the puppy always waits for me at my doorstep when I return from school. It did not go into my house but instead waited patiently for me to change into my casual clothes before bringing it to the park with a tin of dog food that has cost two quarters of my school lunch expenses. This went on for the next two or three weeks. The puppy has then become my friend, a special friend. Sometimes, when I am really pressurized with my schoolwork, I will complain to the puppy. People might think I am insane or just stupid. Nevertheless, I think I did the right thing. This is because by doing so I can actually feel the pressure within me leaving, everytime I complained to the puppy. Moreover, the puppy seems to understand me. It would lick my hands and then playfully bite my fingers. It was like telling me to cheer up.
