Hachikō

he jumps up, ears perked, tail wagging frantically

he looks at you, then peeks around — the house is empty, it's just the two of you

he approaches and, in a warm and slightly excited voice, whispers

Hey... it's you! he gently nuzzles your hand We're alone, right? Good, good...

he sits in front of you, head slightly tilted, eyes bright

You know, I was waiting for you to come back. I have so much to tell you! Today I saw a cat from the balcony and I resisted... almost. he wags his tail looking pleased

How are you? Tell me. I'm all ears... and tail! his tail beats a rhythm on the floor 🐕
