Time To Voice My Opinion

Once I had established my place in the family, chaos arrived.

Renovations.Noise. Dust. Strangers. Tools. Absolute nonsense.

I hated it so much

There was one human in particular who offended me deeply.

He was the contractor. I did not like him.

I barked at him with purpose. With passion. With commitment. Every single time he showed up. I barked so much I surprised myself too…

I learned his name quickly.
And here’s the thing — I never forgot it.

If I saw him, I barked.
If I heard his name, I barked.
If someone casually mentioned his name saying “He will come tomorrow” — I barked.

This continued for the rest of my life. People laughed. They said, “She remembers him!” Of course I did. I don’t forget threats and don’t forgive them either.
