♥ 失而复得。。好庆幸！
Last night, we almost lost Benjy for good.
I brought the kids down to the playground together with Benjy. Seeing him panting, I leashed him to the bench that I was sitting while I read the papers and the kids enjoying their playtime. However Benjy did not want to lie down to rest despite panting away. Seeing that he was keen to continued walking, I unleashed him while I continued reading my papers as I did not expect him to roam far with his current stamina.
5 minutes on, I turned to check on him and found him LOST! Xavier was not around as well! I thought Xavier had brought him away unleashed, and that worried me. After all Xavier does not know how to control an unleashed dog. I started to panic :(
I rushed to the mama shop nearby with Xazz but could not find either of them. We hurried around the blocks, shouting for Benjy at the same time. Out of nowhere, Xavier appeared frantically searching for me at the playground. I asked if Benjy was with him, he said NO. My heart sank. Many thoughts ran through my mind while we combed through the estate, shouting his name non-stop. It was fruitless, I could not see any sight of him. I even looked into deeper drains, worried that he might have fallen in and did not bark. Finally... I broke down. I called Zw down to help me find. When he heard "lost", I think he thought I lost the kids or something. He sounded frantic as well.
He came down to help look for Benjy. We searched the same place over and over again, but still to no avail. I gave up. I sat at the void deck of Blk 137, hugged Xazz and cried. Xavier stood behind me, and cried as well cos' he felt partially responsible for the loss. Just then, Zw called me on my mobile. He said he found Benjy! The joy was beyond words can describe, I tell you.
I duno how, but silly Benjy landed on 8th floor of Blk 138. A kind lady (who was also a dog owner) carried him down after her failed attempt to feed him some food and water. I almost wanted to hug the lady tight for finding back my old man. I really thanked God Benjy was back safe and sound.
