Chapter 9
I opened my eyes to see that I was back in my room at my parents house. I sat up
and looked and around the room, the same as I left it those months ago. It
almost looked like my parents never even knew I had left. My hands went up to my
face instantly as tears started to flow. What was weird was that I didn't feel
fur touching my face at all. It had all been a dream, but it seemed so long and
real. Now my tears were streaming down my face, as I realized that I'd never see
Fox, King, Dad, or Spark ever again. I must have been crying for several hours
and didn't realize it. When I finally stopped crying my hands and bed were
sopping wet and I was really thirsty. As I got up, a thought popped into my
head. Spark! She's still here if I'm back at home! I quickly called her name,
"Spark!" I heard no answer so I tried again this time louder, "SPARK!!!" I heard
a little thump then an answer.
"Ya, what do you want dad?" Spark said as she started to walk up the stairs.
"Oh I'm so relived that your here! I missed you so much!" I told her as she
walked into my room. I ran up to Spark and embraced her in a huge hug. I never
wanted to let go.
Spark broke the hug after a few minutes, "Why did you miss me so much? I was
only downstairs taking a nap."
"I just had a bad dream where you were no where to be found. Then when I finally
did find you, I got hit by a car. I was just so scared that I'd never see you
again." I told her as tears started to form again.
"That does sound terrible, but trust me you'll see me again." Spark said as she
started to back away.
"What do you mean by that? Where are you going?" I asked, confused.
"Trust me you'll see me again, but first you'll have to do something for me."
Spark told me still backing up.
"I'll do anything to see you again, anything just tell me." I said frantically.
"Just WAKE UP." Spark said and snapped her fingers.
************************************
My eyes snapped open as air rushed into my body. I was coughing to help breath
again. I looked up to see who was casting a shadow over me, I froze for a few
brief seconds. It was Spark! She was kneeling over me looking relived.
"Thank goodness, your alive I thought you were dead for a moment there. What's
your name? I haven't seen you around here lately." Spark asked me as she helped
me stand up.
"It's trrr.... I mean it's cocoa. What just happened? My head hurts!" I
exclaimed as I got up.
"Oh well I saw you freeze in front of that car, so I sprinted over to push you
out of the way. I got you out of there just in time, but when we landed you hit
your head on the curb. I hope your alright." Spark explained.
"Well thank you very much for getting me out of the way of that car. And yeah I
feel alright except for feeling a little dizzy." I said.
"I have to go now but I hope to see you again, you seem like a very nice dog.
Are you going to be OK walking home by your self?" She asked.
"Yeah I think so. Goodbye." I said as I started to walk away. I think a made it
about 5 steps then tripped on nothing falling flat onto my face.
"I don't think your fit to walk by yourself back home. I'll help you out." Spark
told me as she picked me up.
"Yeah I think that'd be a good idea too." I replied.
So we started off for my house with me almost tripping about every 20 feet,
luckily Spark was there to stop me from falling over. The trip would have
normally only taken like 5 minutes but with how slow we were going, it was for
sure going to take us more than 15 minutes. It was slow but not boring, along
the way Spark was asking me about how I liked it here and about the other pets.
We chatted back and forth the whole time, she basically just trying to keep me
awake and moving. The whole time I felt this warmness in my heart. It felt just
wonderful being able to talk to Spark again just like we would back at my old
room. It pained me when I noticed that we were standing in front of my house.
This was goodbye for who knows how long this time.
"Well's heres your house, so this is goodbye but I'll make sure to come back
tomorrow to see how your doing. I promise." Spark said as she held out her hand.
I'm not sure what came over me at that moment but instead of shaking her hand I
embraced her in a hug. "Thank you for everything you've done for me. Goodnight."
I said as I let go and went inside. My first step after closing the door landed
on one of dad's socks, making me slip and land on the floor, THUMP! As I lay
there I heard a giggle from outside then the creak of the porch steps as Spark
left. I laid there for a few minutes just storing that precious first memory
into my mind forever. I got up as I heard dad's feet hitting the stairs as he
went down. The thing I was so grateful now was the carpet, as I fell yet again.
"Are you alright? I heard a smack from upstairs." Trevor asked me.
"Somewhat, I just hit my head so I'm a little dizzy." I replied
"You better lay down. What happened?" Dad asked me.
"Well don't freak out but I was almost hit by a car." I started to explain what
happened after seeing his freaked out face. "Ok so I was walking with Fox when I
thought I saw an old friend on the other side of the road. I ran across but
didn't see her anywhere. But I did see a cat she was walking with before. I
chased after the cat hoping to find out if it was who I thought it was. The cat
had gone across another street, I followed but didn't know which way it went
after making it across. I had stopped in the middle of the road not even knowing
that I had. A car came flying toward me, and I froze in it's headlights. I
couldn't move but luckily for me another cat came and pushed me out of the way
just in time. But when we landed I hit my head on the curb. When I woke up the
cat that saved me named Spark was kneeling above me. She helped me up and then
helped me walk home on the account of me not being able to walk straight for
very long. She brought me home and now here we are. Me on the couch holding an
icepack to my head and you sitting there listening." I finished my story thirsty
and out of breath.
"Wow, I really should thank Spark's owner for her help. I'd better take you to
the hospital now to get that head of yours checked out." Dad said as he went to
get his car keys and his shoes on.
We went to the hospital, and the doctor said it was just a cut on the back of my
head. I got 4 stitches put in then they checked my eyesight, hearing, and
smelling ability before I left. I had a minor concussion and a little nausea
from the medicine they gave me. We went home with instructions for me to just
rest and relax for the next day or two.
I didn't even remember going to bed the night before but I woke up to the
strong smell of bacon and eggs. Dad had made me breakfast before he left for
work. It sat on a small tray laying on the floor in front of me. I devoured
everything on the tray in seconds, I tried to get up but failed a few times.
Once I finally got up I was able to make it out of my room and down the stairs
without tripping once. I went and laid down on the couch feeling slightly dizzy
again. I remembered that Spark was coming over sometime today, I was so excited
but somehow I fell asleep again....
Yay! cocoas meet and spoke with spark now! please comment to tell me what you think.
