dog's morn too
(A hungry dog hides a bone underground)
1.
I'm standing in front of the mirror. Woof Woof.
Opening my mouth wide, looking at my teeth. Running my fingers on them. Bringing my tongue out. hah hah hah Woof Woof. Checking the leash on my neck. Swinging my head left and right. hah hah hah. Wiggling my butt a few times. My tale is swinging. I'm going to the front door. Paws on the ground as I wait for my owner. He is walking towards me. Woof Woof. He whistles and pets my head. Woof Woof.
Standing next to me wearing black clothes from head to toe. His clothes look brand new. Or maybe he had just ironed them.
His clothes are really expensive. I don't know. They may be expensive. The watch on his hand is gold. The ring too. His shoes don't have a speck of dust on them.
He pulls the leash dragging me behind himself. Getting in the car. I sit in the back seat. Woof Woof.
We start moving. lighting a cigarette. the smoke of the cigar going through my nose.
Increasing the volume of the music in the car. The song is in English I don't understand it. His head swinging to the music.
Stopping the car in front of what looks like modern club. Getting out he opens the door for me. With a jump I leap out. Woof Woof.
Grabbing my leash with my mouth and give it to him. He drags me behind himself.
We walk inside the club. The music is loud. Greeting his friends, His female friends walk towards him and they kiss each other.
-Oh so cute.
-I have another one I left at home.
-I would like to have one like this too.
She ran her fingers on my head, a warm current running through my body. Woof Woof. I don't want her to move her hand away.
They walk to a table and I sit in front of the table.
He whistles.
Woof Woof.
-Idiot, I don't mean you, waiter waiter!.
-Yes?.
-Bring us something.
After a bit, the waiter comes back with some drinks and snacks. he steps on my tale. it doesn't hurt but I still give him a warning .Woof Woof.
-Oh sorry!.
I clean my tale with my hand and position it in front of me. They drink and have fun.
The girls treat me with the leftover cake by throwing some in front of me. They giggle observing me eat the cake from the floor. Cleaning my lips using my tongue. Woof Woof.
His friends beckoned my owner as they walk to the poker table.
-Let's play a game.
-Twenty-one?.
-Yes.
They start playing. He drinks and eats while also playing the game. One of his friends picks up a piece of roasted meat and whistles.
Woof Woof.
I approach him on my knees, bringing my hands up as high as my chest level. He brings the roasted meat near my nose. hah hah hah Woof Woof. Opening my mouth so that he puts it in my mouth. He throws it in front of his other friend.
He takes it and whistles. I approach him. Woof Woof. bringing the meat near my nose and then throws it toward one of the girls.
Taking the meat she pities me. She throws the roasted piece of meat into the garbage can.
-Stop, let him be and play your game.
Ther laughter mixing with the atmosphere of the club. I scratch my ear with my paw. Woof Woof.
The game has been going for a while with hundreds of dollars on the table. I check the two cards in my owner's hands. He is checking the cards. ( Thee of spades, queen of hearts).
-Give me another card.
Bringing it up with shaky hands( King of diamonds)
Slaming the table in front of him startling the girls.
-I lost. twenty-three
He stands up and leaves the table.
-That's enough for tonight.
Standing up he kicks my butt.
-Let's go
He is drunk and can hardly walk. I take up the leash and follow him. I open the car door and get in. He punches the volume turning it off.
Going back home. He walks into his room. I also go into my room. Taking my clothes off. Woof Woof.
I check my phone there are some unanswered calls. I call my mom.
-Hello.
-Yes, mom.
-How are you, my son?
-I'm fine mom.
-I called you many times, you didn't answer?
-I was working mom.
-Work this late at night?
-That's how my job is.
-Ok, honey take care of yourself.
-Ok, mom.
-Goodbye
Locking my phone, tears falling down. Woof Woof.
