Title :: Reincarnation Author Notes :: Not only I have no idea how this came to me, I don't know how the umbrella reincarnate to be a puppy okay, so don't bother to ask. Base on a religious idea that even inanimate objects have souls (some eastern part of the world I think)
It stands by the door, crooked, destroyed.
Memories to show, stories to tell.
If only it could talk.
"Mum, I do not need an umbrella!"
"But sweetie, dear. It's the rainy season, and it will definitely keep you dry and warm."
"It's going to be a bother bringing it to school."
The umbrella watched.
"Oh wow, useful umbrella."
"I know. It's on of those cases where my mom predicted I'll need an umbrella I guess. Look at how heavy the rain is."
"Well, thank your mom."
"Hmm. I will when I get back."
It could feel soft, gentle hands patting it, thankful for it's existence.
"Thief!"
"Ah!"
Pain. Pain all over, crunch, snap. Something in the metal bend and cracked. Jolts of pain, overwhelming hurt rushed through it, and so did to the thief, it seems.
"Thank you for stopping him! Oh dear, your umbrella's broken! Here, let me repay you."
Closed eyes, a smile if it could.
And now, it stands by the door.
More exciting memories than one expected for it to have, more stories experienced before to be made into something else. At least when it gets recycled, it will remember this life as an interesting one.
"Oh mom, another present? Not another umbrella?"
"I know you didn't want an umbrella, sweetie. Besides, it's not rainy much anymore, so you don't need one."
"Oh. Okay. I liked the last one though."
"Maybe you'll like this one as well. This should help you to guard against anybody, like that thief incident."
"It wasn't even me who got robbed, mom. Oh hey, it's moving! What? A PUPPY!"
The brown eyed, white puppy looked up at the girl with undeniable courage and such big heart, helping another in the time of need.
"Hi again, milady."

Cute story Lati. Never would have expected anyone to compare a puppy to an umbrella, but hey it works!
