Dog Diaries #1

Tests, Tests, Tests

"Papa pleaseeeee." Aanya begged, to the hooman called "Papa."

"No, I've helped you before, and I'm not doing it again, you just want the answer Aanya, you won't actually try to solve it." Papa Hooman said. "Unless you make more of an effort than I will help."

"Please Papa!!" Aanya said again. 

"Go and ask your brother." The Papa said in a louder voice. 

"Ugh, fine." Aanya said.

Aanya stomped up to her brother's room. "Hey, I need help to revise with my test."

"First of all, help meaning I give you the answers, or help meaning I actually help you? Second of all, I'm lazy, and third of all, why do you carry your dog around with you everywhere you go?"

"Just help me, and please, and because he's the best doggy." Aanya said, while giving me a belly rub. 

"I said no." The Hooman Brother said. 

"I'M TELLING," Aanya said. 

"WAIT WAIT NO." The Hooman Brother said, running after her. 

Aanya stopped, "What?" 

"Don't tell them, I'll help!" Hooman Brother said, while smiling. 

"Fine. But only 'cause I need you." Aanya said. 

When they entered the room, Aanya was trying to revise for her test with Hooman Brother, when Hooman Brother yelled, "YES!! SCORE! SCORE! I WON!"

"Raam, you have to be revising with me. I really need help." Aanya said. 

"Well, I just WON a game I've been trying to beat for the past week."

"No one really cares, Raam, now could you PLEASE help me?! This is IMPORTANT." Aanya said. 

"Why are you so worried about a stupid test anyway? Just flunk, then your teachers won't expect that much from you."

"I want honor roll, just like I got honor roll last year. Unlike you, I care about having an education and good future." Aanya retorted. "You know what, get out, I'll revise myself." 

"Ok. Bye nerd." Raam said. As he walked out he kept muttering stuff like try-hard, loser, and nerd.

"You're not a nerd, I believe you can pass." I barked. 

"I know, Coco, no one listens. However, we had this for homework last week so I think I should be able to do this!" Aanya said confidently. 

As I slept near Aanya, as she revised the heck out of her homework, got tired, and slept beside me. 

The next afternoon, Aanya came back with her test grade. Looking a little scared. 

"Well? What was your score?" Hooman Mama said. 

"I don't know, I haven't checked. Maybe we could do it together, with Coco?"

"Sure, beti."

Aanya slowly flipped her test over, she stared at the big thing on her test and laughed. 

"98%!!" Both Aanya, and Hooman Mama exclaimed. 

"This calls for pizzaaaaa" Hooman Mama said. 

Aanya looked so excited and happy, then left in the kitchen to go with Hooman Mama.
