| Cup with a Dog’s Picture | |
To be the only child in the family is the most disgusting thing I thought when I was a kid. Parents were all the time on the work and I was alone. But thanks to this fact I became self-sustained very early. I could make the bed; do the dishes and my first pancakes I cooked when I was seven years old. But during the cooking I broke two plates from mother’s favorite ware set, but it doesn’t matter. I always envied to my friend Eddie. He had two brothers and sister. They fought, made tricks, quarreled, so they had fan. And as for me, I was bored. I wanted someone with whom I could play, walk, have fan and take care. I definitely wanted to have a dog. I was so obsessed about this idea that I even didn’t care about the breed. But my parents had an objection. They considered this idea insane. They always repeated that dog is not only the fan, but it is a big responsibility. It was two weeks before my birthday and I was tired of driving at what I wanted to get as a present. But they didn’t want to listen to. I knew that my parents had the objection, but nevertheless I had a little hope that they would present me a puppy. But there was no hope anymore when I saw a little colorful box. When I opened it, there was a cup with picture of a dog. I didn’t even want to watch at this. I was on the verge of tears. But on the next moment I have heard a strange noise in the street. It was barking. When I opened a front door I saw a little nice puppy. I couldn’t believe my eyes. This was it. My dream quietly sat and looked at me. I was on the top of the world. Finally I would have a company. Parents were glad that I was glad, although they didn’t want to have haired and slobbering being with four paws in their house. I gave name to my new friend Milo like dog’s name from the movie “The Mask”. So, from that moment I forgot about boring. He brought me a lot of fan, and too much problems at the same time, for example frightened neighbors, spoiled father’s shoes, broken family vase and rest plates mother’s favorite ware set, and so on and so forth. But nevertheless, I get a friend not without disadvantages of course. So it goes, there are no ideal friends. |
