My Pets?!

Chapter 8

Threne's POV

"Where's Jiro, guys?"

Ean whimpers and slowly crawls into my arms. Reed and Matthew stare at me. And I give them the stare back. I put Ean down and look around the room, but there's no sign of a white husky.

I check everwhere again. Heck, I even check the trashcan! But still, no signs of Jiro. Panic starts to build up again as I bite my lip and exit the house. I clutch my stomach as the bruise pains a bit.

"Miley, wait!"

Tears are starting to fall from my eyes. I really can't find him anywhere.

I turn to Hera and grasp her tightly. My hands are already trembling,so is my lips as I tried to hold back a whimper. I feel suffocated and I can't think of anything other than Jiro

"Hera, Jiro is missing. We have to find him. I had knew there's something wrong, but I didn't thought it would be this serious."

I begin hiccuping and search through the streets. I look left and right, but there's still no Jiro in sight.

An old woman goes out from the house in front of us. I run to her and ask her politely as Hera tailed from behind.

"Ms. Summers,excuse me but have you seen a white dog coming out from my house?"

The kind old lady simply shakes her head and smiles sadly.

"I haven't, dear."

I simply thank her and grab Hera's hands. We went through every streets, hoping that Jiro is just sleeping beside the sidewalk or under a tree. We also ask some passersby if they saw him.

But no! They haven't.

"Excuse me, have you seen a white dog?"

Sadly, the last passerby shakes his head. I look at Hera, and her face contort with sadness.

"Hera, we have to report this to the police." I exaggerately speak as I bite my lips again, trying to stop myself from crying. She rubs my cheeks and hugs me as my tears fall uncontrollably like a gushing falls.

"Hera, I can't lost him. I can't take it. I can't. I don't wanna lose him! Just when everything is fine and now,he suddenly vanish!"

She rubs my back and leads me back to my home. When we get there, I went to the kitchen to make their food. I clutch my stomach when the bruise stings again. This is getting worst.

"Miley! Are you okay?"

I shook my head and a helpless sob escape from my mouth. Hera look at me with pain swirling in her eyes as she guide me to the couch and rub my back.

"Stay there. I'll make their food."

I didn't answer her. Instead, I cry helplessly. Feeling furious and tired.

Jiro, where are you? Did you leave the house? Don't you like me as your owner? Or do you wanna go back to your past owner if you have one?

I look to my right and notice the window is open. I think that's where Jiro exited.

I sigh and close my eyes. Trying to erase the bitter sensation I felt. I can feel a movement on my left. I lightly open my eyes and there Matthew sits, glaring at me.

"Matthew, I don't have time to argue with you." I whisper as tears start to swell from my eyes again.

An unexpected meow from him caught my attention causing for me to look at him again.

"What?"

He meow again as an answer,still with a hard look written in his eyes.
Then suddenly,he grabs my shirt with his mouth, telling me to follow him.
