Earliest Memory of my Childhood!! 


 “She should be put to death for this, I’ll punish her, I’ll take revenge myself. She killed him! It’s my entire fault I left him alone on the roof to play.” (Crying and sobbing)
 In this sad condition, I was ready to die with grief, I cried out in agony, beat my head and threw myself upon the ground, over whelmed by a rushing current of thoughts, each more distressing then the last, I hated myself for this kind of irresponsible act, and wanting the criminal to go through her punishment.
“Oh stop crying dear! I’ll bring you another one, it was just a chick!!!” said Mom......

  A chick???

Yes…J a baby-chicken!!!! He was my dearest pet, eaten by a cat…
Some of you will call me a born-certified–drama-queen…



The fact is that many people do not realize how traumatic and confusing a pet’s death can be on a child. 3 to 4 years old children gets too much attach and loves their pet, pets are more than just animals their families own — they're members of the family and the best of friends, they takes care of them like their own kid, they spend lots of time with them, some of the children also share their whole-day-story with pets.
Whenever I think about my childhood this is the earliest memory comes in my mind that was really a tragedy, a saddest thing that happened with me in my whole life at that time, but now whenever I think about it, it makes me laugh like hell.
With thousands of tears I shed it wasn't over. I buried my chick in the backyard so that he’ll stay with me forever. At the same night I picked my pen, took out my art pad, drew a chick on it and colored it so beautifully, I placed it on the roof where that criminal act was done, and hid, holding my water gun in hand, and started waiting for the cat…

And this was my unsuccessful plan, I thought that cat will think my drawing a real chick and when she’ll attack it to eat, I’ll shoot her with my water gun, and punish the criminal cat.

“And this is not just one; there are tons of silly and stupid memories of that glorious care free days, Treasured forever are the memories of my childhood, I wish could turn back time and live my childhood once again”...
