Yesterday, one of my pets died. Her name was Sasori and she's a hen. When I woke up, I was shocked when my sister shouted that Sasori was dead. I could hardly believe what I've heard. A little while later, when I was about to leave the house, my mom told me na 'butas' daw iyung stomach ni Sasori, and one of her feet is missing. I was teary-eyed but I decided not to cry because I was about to go to school and I was afraid that my classmates would misinterpret the reason why I was crying. So, I just went to school heavy-hearted.

I tried to remove Sasori in my mind but I can't. It's too painful for me because I'm her owner, and we've been together for almost a year. I have witness how she had grown into a cute, little hen. I had owned her ever since she was still a chick, and I was really happy that she was mine.

Last night, while I was playing my DS, I thought I heard one of our pets being killed again(you know!, the sounds they make), so I called my sister. We rushed outside and saw nothing. I was imagining things; not even one of the chickens was being killed. After securing their safety, we returned to my sister's room. Then, tears started to roll down my cheeks. I was crying because I remembered Sasori. I imagined the pain she felt, the sounds she made, and other things she could've done to get my attention. Maybe she was saying, 'Master, help me! I'm being killed by a rat! Save me!', I didn't really know. But what did I do?! I was sleeping! Sleeping happily while my chicken was being killed. What if I came to her rescue? Will she still be alive today? Will she still be able to bully her sisters? Will she still be able to lay eggs and have chicks? _sigh_ I don't really know the answers to these questions. I just cried myself to sleep.

Noknok, is another pet of mine. She is a texas, and she too had been killed by a rat.

My mother told me not to be so attached to my pets. But, what can I do? I love them! I love them so much that I would cry for them when they die, when they will be lost, sold, etc..etc..

I hope you guys could understand how I feel. It is just too hard to let go, even if it's only a pet who died- it's just hard....
