Mye and Myu (chapter 3)

Panicked by the catch of breath, in one stormy night, Myu was hassling in a park wherein dogs tend to go around catching a magnificent olive-colored flurry ball. He caught the ball afore it moves again but the ball was awfully weird, the ball was jumping like a rabbit playing from place to place. So he followed it until it stops jumping up, he was pouring wet as he tailed the ball. A moment after, the ball stopped but the rain didn’t stop. His vision was blurry for the moment it stopped jumping, he caught the ball but he was heavily exhausted.

As he rested upon a park chair that fits for two same as his size, there was already one sitting atop of it same as his size. It might be dark but somehow, he saw an adorable dog sitting beside him enjoying the rainy atmosphere.

The dog didn’t notice him. The dog was the same as him, a pug dog but it was a girl.  As he was looking at her, she didn’t budge looking at him. She was just enjoying the rain and she looked lively like a sunflower blooming beneath the sun.

“What a charming dog” he said to himself.

At first glance, he already thought of her as a friend. Just looking at her just doesn’t feel right, he wanted to play with her and know her, so he sat close to her and then took a deep breath.

“Hey there cutie, do you want to play with me?” said Myu.

The word ‘cutie' caught her attention, she gracefully looked at him and said, “First of all my name is not Cutie 'stranger, my name is Mye and I wouldn’t dare to play with you because I don’t know you, sorry.”

“A stranger? Well my name is Myu so can we play together now?” asked Myu.

The serene pug shook his head and said, “I’m afraid that I’ll have to make you disappointed Myu.”

Myu for the first time in his life asked someone to play with him, but he was rejected. At that instance, Myu was upset that Mye rejected his request.

Mye never intended to sadden him, then she added “You are an interesting pug but if you want me to be an acquaintance to your expedition, you might as well learn how to address and introduce yourself in a proper manner to which I could get ahold of myself knowing you are a harmless pug.”

Myu turned away from Mye. Myu never expected to be told like that by anyone because he was never too fond of talking to other dogs and what’s more asking someone to play with him. Myu was neither happy nor sad, he felt strange.

He then looked at Mye and said “How will I do that? Because in my entire life, this is the first time someone said something like that to me”

“I don’t know, you’ll learn that by yourself now Myu and until we meet again be sure to show good demeanors okay? I’ll stay Mye as long as I'm around” Mye said while giggling.

“Huh? Is introducing myself not today Mye? I’m quite confused right now”

“Sometime but not right now and not today Myu, the time will eventually come. So I’m going to go on ahead and gonna leave you here okay?”

The rain have stopped, Mye looked at the moon and said “The moon shines bright. In such a night as this. When the sweet wind did gently kiss the trees and they did make no noise, in such a night what would I do?”

Silently, Mye walked away and never looked back at the confused Myu. In some way, Myu was not hurt and nonetheless, he was hoping to meet Mye again, someday.

Myu wanted to chase after her but he guessed that it might as well not the best thing to do at the moment.

Things escalated very quickly as Mye was walking away. Myu was given no certainty that Mye will be coming back to hear his words once again.

Myu understood that he is not ready to ask someone to be his friend, by that reason he needs to do something for himself first.

“I will change myself for you Mye, you be sure to get back” proudly, he said.
