My silent mother Volume 1

Chapter Ninety Eight Zwei A Loyal Companion & Friend pt 1

March 21st

(Blake Xiao Long) I woke this morning and something felt off and so I looked around the room and that's when I noticed that Zwei wasn't one the bed and so I threw on some clothes and I then walked out the living room and I then walked over to Zwei's bed and I noticed that he wasn't moving and so I turned  him over onto his back and I then placed my hand onto his chest and I couldn't feel a heartbeat and I instantly knew that Zwei was gone, I started to tear up.

I then pulled my scroll out of my pocket and I then proceeded to call Yang who was at work, Yang picked my call and she must have picked the shallow breaths that were coming out of my mouth because she asked Is everything okay babe? I then said Zwei's dead Yang and then Yang asked are you certain that Zwei's dead babe? I then said yes I'm one hundred percent certain Yang, I even felt for a pulse in Zwei's chest and his heart wasn't beating a few seconds of silence Yang then took a deep breath and she said on the verge of tears I can't believe that Zwei's really gone babe, I said I know dragon but let's take comfort with the knowledge that Zwei did live a very long life even for a corgi, remember Yang that Zwei lived to be twenty nine. 

I then said why don't we take Zwei to Patch and bury him next Taiyang when you get home Yang, I will let everyone know that Zwei's no longer with us while you continue working and Yang then asked will you be okay kitty and I said I will be okay Yang, I will see you after you get off work. I then said I love you Yang and Yang then said I love you too kitty she then ended the call.

I then picked Zwei and I then walked over to the couch and I then held Zwei in my arms and I said with tears running down my face Zwei I know that we didn't get along well in the beginning and I honestly couldn't stand to be around you, though changed when I was really sick after Yang & I had gotten married and Yang had been at work while I had been sick and you kept me company while I was sick and it was that we had formed a strong bond with each other.

You always were there for Yang & I when we needed someone to cheer us up when we were having a bad day or if we were feeling sad about anything, What I'm trying to say is that I especially valued your friendship and companionship and I hope that you are running around happily in heaven and I hope that we will meet again someday. I then gently laid Zwei on the seat next to me and I then pulled out my scroll and I then sent the news of Zwei's passing to the family group chat.

Withing minutes of sending out the text to everyone in the chat my scroll was being bombarded with sympathy and love from the rest of the family, The first person responded was Ruby who had wrote me asking if we needed anything and I responded back by asking her if her and Weiss would like to meet us on Patch for the burial and Ruby didn't respond for a few seconds she responded back by saying that Weiss & her would be there for the burial ceremony.

I then looked down at the family dog and I smiled knowing that he wasn't suffering anymore from stomach cancer, the last couple of months Zwei was in some much horrible pain It broke my heart to see him suffer so much, I remember last night that Zwei wasn't his normal self almost like he was waiting for something, I guess that he was waiting for his time to go. At least Yang & I got to say goodbye to him and we got to let him know just how much he was loved. We all will miss Zwei but at least he's with Taiyang up in the sky watching over us.
