In the night right before we went to bed around 8 p.m., I opened my LINE app. I seldom open this app, as I don’t use it regularly. I opened it today because I thought some of my Japanese friends have sent me a birthday wish as they are 16 hours ahead of me.
I found one new messages. It was from my local Japanese friend. It was sent around the lunch time.
The message was a surprising one. She attached one cute dog’s picture and asked me if I want to adopt the dog. She said one of her Japanese friends are moving to somewhere and they cannot keep the dog anymore. They are looking for a new home for the dog. The dog was female, just 2 years old. She is “Golden Shepherd” mixed breed of Golden Retriever/German Shepherd. She looked smart and adorable.
I quickly replied back to her that we would love to. She called the owner, but it was too late. It has already 6-7 hours have passed and they already found a new owner for the dog.
We were very close to be a dog owner. Very close.
