Attachment

Once upon a time there was a little girl. All she ever wanted was a pet. A cute, playful, loyal companion. Many times she was very close to having one but they either turned out to be boring, unaffordable, someone else's or just simply didn't like her.

Until one day when she found the most adorable puppy. She didn't want to get close to it in case there was some reason she couldn't keep it. However, the puppy's sweet nature warmed into her heart. Having been abandoned many times, it begged for her attention. That made her feel needed and wanted. She couldn't help but fall in love with it and grew deeply attached to the gorgeous ball of fur.

As the puppy grew, it didn't require as much of the little girl's time and was content playing with other dogs. The girl was so used to having the puppy always with her, she felt sad seeing it being happy without her. She knew dogs were completely different to humans and it was great that her pet was enjoying the company of its own species but inside she wished that she would be enough to make her pet completely happy.
