Finding hope in a small village. (part 2)

It is almost evening and the stupid dog did not move an inch. He was still insistantly staring at his catch and did not stop from barking for a second. Suddenly, the voice of a child is heard while some steps are fastly approaching their direction. The child is calling a dog's name, LuLu.

"LuLu, LuLu, where are you? Come out now

or you will not receive drumsticks today!"

The dog finds himself in a huge dilemma because he doesn't know what to do: to leave his prey and go to his master or to keep watching the thief. Until he takes a decision, many tears flow from his undecided eyes. In the end he starts barking more aggressively to signal his location.

"Now, my master will definitely find me, he thinks proudly of his achievement!"

Actually, Ba, could understand many languages, even the language of these non-speaker creatures, so she understood the dog's thoughts from the very beginning till the end.

The little child pops out from the tall green grass and appears in front of Ba and apparently his crazy dog.

"Here you are LuLu, I searched for you everywhere but barely found you here! You're in trouble big guy!"

LuLu barks three times, spins two times, waves his tail thousands of times and points the thief with his wet nose trying to show his master the reason why he disappeared and didn't go home early.

The child finally realizes that a young and beautiful woman sits down on the grass with her leg wounded. He angrily looks at LuLu and yells, "What have you done, you crazy dog?", while trying to support the victim.

"I'm so sorry miss! Did he bite you?"

"Oh, no! Not at all! I was already hurt when he stalled me, I hurt my leg yesterday. He just tried to stop me from picking some fruits, that's all!"

"How many times have I told you LuLu? The peaches aren't only for our villagers, they are for every hungry soul that passes by! We will not be poor if a few are missing!"

The dog bows his head and begins to lament. In that moment, he was thinking that his good intention was misunderstood and he is unfairly treated but the child suddenly smoothes his white fur and says that he's sorry for yelling at him.

LuLu is back to his old self and fastly waves his tail many times.

"Miss, where are you living? I will help you go home, as compensation for the delay created by LuLu."

"Actually, it's ok! You don't have to do this, I can walk."

"But I insist! At least let me clean my conscience in this way."

Ba acceptes his help and after he collects the peaches scattered on the ground, they leave toward the place where she points her finger.
