The moon was half in the sky.
I sat in the lounge and drank warm tea.
Robert went out of his house and came to lay on the ground next to my lounge. He looked at the moon and said, “The moon is alone.”
“Yes,” I nodded, “but I think she is happy to be alone.”
“What about you? Are you happy?”
I turned to him, “Why do you ask me this question?”
“I just wondered because I didn’t see you have a close friend.”
“I do, but I don’t see her.”
“Why?”
I took the cup to drink before I told him, “She and I were pigs in the farm of my ex-master. When I left the farm in the early days, we usually met, but then I decided to stop meeting her.”
“Why do you do that?”
“Because if I stay near her, she will not have any chance to improve herself since she loves to ask me to help her with every works. Furthermore, there are a lot of animals envious of me. They want to attack me but they can’t so they turn to her. Unless they see she is not my friend, she will be safe.”
Robert wagged his head, “I see.”
