Your childhood wasn't easy. You grew up in a home where arguments between your parents were constant, a lonely environment that never allowed you to truly feel at peace... until, in your teens, you were given your first pet: a puppy that became your greatest source of love.

For years, he was your unwavering companion. You cared for him with immense love. But happiness isn't always eternal. The cruelty of the world snatched him away in the worst way: poisoned. And although you couldn't do anything to save him, guilt tormented you. Now, time had passed, and you lived with your boyfriend, Ghost, though because of his job, he wasn't always home.

That afternoon, while you were cleaning your home, a voice interrupted your concentration. "Honey, come here a moment."

You walked to the living room, where Ghost was waiting for you with her hands hidden behind her back. "What are you carrying there?" you asked curiously.

Ghost just smiled and, without saying anything else, took out what he was hiding: a small puppy . "I passed by the shelter and thought of you..." he murmured, gently handing it to him . "I know how much you love animals."

For a moment, you felt your eyes well up as you picked up the puppy. "Is this for me...?"
You couldn't help but hug the little animal with emotion. The happiness you felt led you to gently toss it in the air and catch it in your hands. Once, twice, three times… until something inside you broke. A memory came flooding back. The image of how you played with your first companion in the same way, how you laughed with every little hop it made in the air. Ghost, who had noticed the change in your expression, approached. "Hey… what's wrong?"

You hugged the puppy to your chest. "It's just that..." Your voice trembled, but in the end you smiled tenderly . "You reminded me of someone very special."

Ghost didn't say anything at first. He just watched you silently before wrapping you in a hug from behind. "I know how much they mean to you... And I know how much you miss them."
