The climax day

So then came the Sun day, as they call it. Chris woke up really early,
stayed in bed for a while and used her telephone as computer. she says
that is the most quiet alternative, so she didn't wake up Mylove, who
was sleeping beside her. But then she got up and quietly went into the
kitchen, where she prepared coffee. Then she returned with two mugs of
it, and very very calmly she walked into the ladies' bedroom, but
returned with the two coffee mugs with a grin on her face. She says they
had told her about how early they would wake up, and so she had decided
to wake them up and surprise them with coffee. But now, as she was in
the ladies' bedroom, they all were sleeping tight and well, and one of
them was even snoring. So no coffee surprise. Instead, Chris drank a cup
herself and lay down in bed until Mylove woke up, kissed her and held
her close, until it was time to get up.

Mylove never takes showers as long as Chris, so when he was ready, he
poured coffee for the ladies and joined them on the balcony. it took
another while until everybody was ready to leave the house. It was
raining very lighty, but they all decided to walk. The university friend
had a suitcase, a little one on wheels, and the friend was carrying a
backpack. We all walked along the streetcar tracks the opposite way.
Mylove and Chris took turns holding my flexible leash, and once the
route was propperly paved again, Chris pulled the friend's suitcase, and
they talke all the time. Then for some reason, we arrived at the city
train station, where we took the train for a couple of stops. And after
we had gotten off, Chris' friend greeted us. She was the one who had
helped set up the bed, and who takes us for human dinners every now and
then. I like her, she is fun. We all walked to a restaurant where nobdy
was there yet, and first thing the ladies did was disappear and go to
the bathrooms, while I stayed with Mylove. And just after they were
back, a man I don't know arrived, and just then Daniel showed up with
his two additional legs instead of the wheelchair. During all of this
Chris received a huge bag from the friend, with coffee in it. She is a
coffee girl for sure, and she really liked it. More and more people
showed up, sister Suse, the cousin, the other sister and her husband,
and much later another sister with her daughter, another friend with his
wife, and finally also Micki. The humans all had breakfast and talked
and talked, and from many of them Chris received presents. The coffee
was in a huge original coffee sac, so all other presents were put inside
as well, and Mylove took on the task of keeping everything tiidy. In
between I was taken outside both by sister Suse and Mylove occasionally,
and every now and then Chris accompanied us and we stayed outside.

At one point Chris got really tired. The three ladies had left, and also
the friend, so she and Mylove decided to leave as well. Chris had a long
conversation with a restaurant lady, who did a lot of number juggling,
and then Chris gave her some paper money. She said goodbye to the
remaining folks, and the man and his wife took Mylove, Chris and me and
the presents and flowers to our home. By now the sun was shining, but
neither Chris nore mylove felt like going to the beach - what a pity!

Instead Chris unfolded the magical couch, threw on the blankets and took
a nap. Then she woke up, but both she and Mylove relaxed and watched TV,
and only slowly they got up and cleaned the apartment and took me for
the evening walk. Mylove packed his bag, and then he sat down to watch
TV and talk with Chris, who fell asleep after a while. She must have
been tired after these two really busy days. But she says they were
wonderful, and she had enjoyed seeing all the friends. Most of all, of
course, she had enjoyed seeing Mylove nd spending time together with
him. I like him, too. He is fun and plays, and I even got to lie on the
bed with him in the morning, while Chris was in the shower.

The next morning Chris took me for a walk, the two humans had breakfast,
and then she took him to the streetcar stop. She was crying on and off.
She says humans do shed tears when they are either extremely hapy, or
when they feel really sad. I understand that it is hard to leave a
member of the pack behind, so I took great care of Chris on the way to
work. I cleared her of a car which had been parked in the middle of the
pedestrian walk, and genereally I was a good girl.

I think Chris and Mylove and I, Micki and the sister and the other
sister's dog and all good friends and cool dogs should always stay
together, so everybody can be happy and play and never needs to cry.
Chris can kiss Mylove, nd Daniel can get his eyeglasses cleaned, and I
can sleep on the bed occasionally and play with dogs and stay with Chris
and watch that the pack stays together. That would be a marvelous plan!
Good night, I have a dream to dream, Quito.
