Have you ever had an Encounter with a Street Dog 🐕?
I had many, but few of them were Scary for me.
This Incident is one of them..
So Readers, Open your Ears and Eyes Wide and Read 😌...
---x---
This happened in June 2016, Me and my Family had been in Chennai for a Few Months after Returning to India after 4 Years
Anyway, Me and my Brother were Enrolled in Different Schools (Because there was no Seat for my Younger Brother for his Grade in the School were I Studied ಠ◡ಠ )
One Fine Morning, it was the Day of my English Exam of FA-1 (The Previous Syllabus was like that), around 8:25 am , I accompanied my Brother to drop him off at his School Bus's Pickup Point which was Situated at the End of the Street.
I waited till his Bus came to pick him up and returned on my Way Home, like a Responsible 12 yr Old Boy 😌😎...
When I reached my Destination (Home) , I saw the Street Dog which resides in our Street in front of Our House waging it's Tail to our House Owner , a Kind Woman in her Fifties...
I saw the Dog and stood a Few Meters far from the Gate , Because I would be Scared if a Street Dog is Near me. I won't Provoke the Dog and neither should he 😌.
She threw some Biscuits to it, coz it's clearly seen that it came for Food...
BUT, he sniffed the Biscuits and then turned towards Me !!
I was like: "Okay, Calm Down, it's just looking at you. Don't look at it and wait till it finishes those Biscuits "
He Grunted at me for a Second and the Next thing I know was that he Pounced on Me !!😱😱
I was taken aback and immediately got Scared and put my Hands in the Front to block his Actions, but he put his Paw which contained grown Nails on my Hand and Barked a Few Times...
In the Ensuing Actions which lasted just a Few Seconds, The Damn Dog Scratched My Left Hand with his Nails deeply , injuring the Back of my Left Palm and ran away coz it got Scared by my Scream (눈‸눈)
My Eyes started watering coz of the Sudden Fright it gave me, the Pain of the Injury which started Burning (ಠಗಠ)
My Mom was also present their at the Scene ,but inside the Gates... She immediately went to change her Clothes to take me to Hospital while the House Owner splashed Water on my Hands to clean the Injured Part.
The Hospital was just around 200m far away...
It was a Small One, Convenient for the Neighborhood 😌...
Me, My Mom and our House Owner went to the Hospital and took Treatment for me.
The Doc asked whether the Dog bit me or just Scratched my Hand..
I recalled back at the Scene, I couldn't remember coz I was focused on Removing my Hand from it's Clutches, but I gave it a thought:
"🤔 If it bit my Hands, then it's Teeth should have created Deep Injury and it's Saliva should be present on my hand ... It's not there , so the only Possibility is... it Scratched me, YES it Scratched me, I'm Pretty Sure now 😌. "
After hearing my Reply of the Dog Scratching me, he ordered the Nurses to give me Injections to prevent Infections. I guess the Name was TTT something..
Then an Embarrassing Incident happened 😶:
The Injection should be Injected in the BUTT !!!
Gosh, the Nurse saw my Butt ⊙﹏⊙ 🥲.
What a Day🥲? A Dog Scratched me and Nurse saw my Butt.
Those Nurses may have seen a Lot of Butts, but I was Clearly Embarassed...
Then Later My Mom bought the Medicines (Only an Ointment for my Injured Hand)
And we planned to go to School to attend the Small English Exam...
I went Home, took my Pouch and a Water Bottle and set off to My School in my Mom's Scooter along with her...
The School Assembly was already Going on when we reached there (At 9:20 am)
We went inside and sat outside the Office Room and Waited for the Assembly to get Finished, so we can ask the Permission of Co-ordinator Teacher to attend the Exam..
There , while we were Waiting... They were Singing the B'day Song for Students who were Celebrating their Birthday...
I saw those Students who were Standing on the Stage wearing Non-Uniform Dresses, indicating they are the Birthday Students...
And saw at my Injured Hand, I just stopped Crying a while back and some were Happy...
My 12-yr Old Self then realised that Everyday,
Every Single Day,
Some people are Born and be Happy while some people Die and be Sad 😔
While I was absorbed in my own thoughts, the Assembly came to an End and My Mom asked for Permission to the Co-ordinator Teacher.
She saw my Injury and Allowed me to attend the Exam...
So , there I go, to the Conference Hall where Small Indoor School Activities take place, sat at a Place in the Empty Hall , wrote the Exam and as Requested by the Teacher,
Took the Next Day off and Leisured myself at Home while the Rest of my Classmates were Attending the Next Exam in School┏(^0^)┛(⌐■-■)
