In the beginning of the last year, a neighbourhood elderly woman began to have a small puppy as that puppy wandered into her garden.
She used to take care of me when I was little so I sometimes went food shopping with her and helped her out for cleaning her house.
I was often worried about her because she always stayed at home alone just watching TV as her legs were not good and her husband passed away years ago.
But after the puppy came, she went out with him for a walk everyday.
At first, she used a stick and walked slowly but a few months later, she no longer needed a walking stick and her legs got recovered enough to go to a near park and talk to other elderly people there.
Eventually she became able to go food shopping and clean up by herself.
What is more, she fell in love with a widowed elderly man who she saw in the park so she got to make up and set her hair to go there with the puppy.
“He invited me for dinner but do you think this is a date? What do you think about these clothes? Are they alright?”
She asked me that in the autumn of the last year.
Now, she lives with that man and the couple taking a walk with the dog looks like they’ve been together for tens of years.
“I thought all I could do in the rest of my life was just pass away but my life renewed thanks to Ochibi-chan (that dog. ‘Ochibi’ means ‘tiny’)”
She now takes care of the dog as if he is her real child.
I’m surprised but glad that one dog can change her life so much.
By the way that small puppy called Ochibi-chan is clever and calm but not Ochibi anymore.
