On the same topic, about how pets can’t
really choose what happens to them, I have a story that fits perfect with this.
The other day when I was driving home with my boyfriend, I was going around the
curvy road by my house. All of a sudden, I saw this dog walking on the road.
This is not the first time I have seen this dog, it was walking at me in the
middle of the road on my way home from school once. The first time it happened
it freaked me out a lot, but this time was even worse.
Last Christmas
eve, my puppy that was part of the family got hit by a car. This was one of the
worst experiences of my life. Every time I think about it I cry, it was like
losing a family member. It was losing a family member. And I had to witness it
too. I was curling my hair getting ready to go visit family. Nakita was her
name, and she had a tendency of running around where she shouldn’t, so my mom
had a shock collar that she monitored. That is why as soon as I heard the screeching
of car tires, and a thud I knew exactly what happened, I ran outside and my mom
was screaming. I started hyperventilating as I stared at her lifeless body, and
to make things worse, the guy had a dog in his car.
Seeing your
mom break down is bad enough, but losing a member of the family was horrifying.
On Christmas Eve too. My mom was screaming and crying kneeling by the road, I stood
there crying and in shock. My dad tried to comfort her but it wasn’t happening,
he took her off the road. The guy kept saying sorry, but that couldn’t bring
her back. It wasn’t anybody’s fault. My mom kept saying it was her fault and
that she should have been watching her closer. I couldn’t watch anymore, and I felt
like I was going to puke. I ran in the bathroom and sat by the toilet. When my
mom came in she started apologizing to us, which made me even madder.
I lost one
of my best friends, and it was so hard to keep it together when we went up to
see my whole family. I honestly cried almost every day for a month. It just kept
replaying in my head. I miss her so much. R.I.P Nakita <3
