The truth about sparrows and dogs!


Finally the sparrow got engaged to be married to the dog. And before they could live happily ever after, they fought like cats and dogs sparrows and dogs. After every fight the dog would say, “I promise not to repeat THIS mistake again.” As if that was supposed to make the fidgety, restless, nervous, flighty, perpetually flustered sparrow feel l better…but again, like a nice, peace loving sparrow, she would give in every time….let him do something stupid again, just so she can chirp non-stop and drive him mad! Fortunately fro the sparrow, this dog wasn’t the barking types…he would just sit there like a nice, well-behaved, dog, wagging his tail at regular intervals, just to divert the sparrows fleeting attention. And dumb, that the sparrow is, she would invariably fall for the wagging and the yelping. Tch tch tch….the sparrows of the world need to grow up!

The other day, sparrow and dog were to meet up and do some shopping together. It was the sparrow’s best friend’s birthday. The dog didn’t mind tagging along, dog that he is. After a quick shopping session (sparrow is infamous for her aversion towards shopping), the dog insisted that she travel back home with him. Sparrow chirped and pleaded and chirped some more, but alas. She fell for the way the little dog yelped …! BIG MISTAKE! She got into a gents compartment with the dog she got engaged to…and suddenly the dog decides to get as insensitive and as mean as stupid as possible. He actually says, “J You have a lot of guts, eh? You actually got into a gents compartment. All I had to do was ask once!” now this hypersensitive sparrow started fuming. Nobody had ever accused of being a fickle minded ‘pinky’. And him, of all the people, tells her that she has ‘guts’??? A zillion thoughts went through her mind. She was too hurt and humiliated to move. Just then he says, “I think you should get into a ladies compartment…” She promptly got up….and like a man who doesn’t know what chivalry is all about, he just rests his butt more comfortably on the seat as she walks away into the crowd of a zillion staring eyes.

It is a different issue that the sparrow refuses to entertain his calls and messages till the dog felt sufficiently guilty. It’s also a totally different issue that the sparrow will keep reminding him of this incidence till her last breath. And it’s an entirely different story that no vivid truth about the sparrow and dog species was mentioned anywhere in the post.
