Should I call it.......... Friendship?

 Just like any other day I went for a jogg at 5am. It was drizzling and cold breeze touching my cheeks. With every step I took I could feel a sense of rejoice and freshness. It was the month of September when all the flowers bloom and birds chirp every morning. Moving out of the cantonment area I wanted to explore the new city. The beautiful city of Rajas, the Pink city. I had joined my new unit just 2 days back. Finally today after all the unpacking and setting of house going out to explore the city. Near to the cantonment area there was jungle, I was always fascinated towards the thick forest and the animals. I ran inside the forest and found a beautiful broken bridge. I seems like children play around in the evening, toffee wrappers and chips packet layed on it. I moved ahead and found even more dense forest surrounded with tressin a systematic order,I call that place THE HUB.  But I could deny the fact that the place was fabulous. Before I move ahead I looked at my watch and realised its getting late. So I returned back to my mess, got  ready for my office. The whole day I was remmembering the morning place.  I could sense something wrong about that place but I left the thought and focused on my work. Being an Int officer you tend to doubt everything around you. It becomes a part of your life after training. 

In the evening I met my old school friend when we once met but lost contact after she left the place. That was so relieving to have found someone near and dear one in an unknown city. Like all girls, we gossiped about almost everything in that one evening.  We prepared food for ourselves and almost every day we used to do the same. After sometime I felt like we both are in so called relationship. That was just a statement, we both engaged. 

I told her about the place I visited that morning.  She was surprised to hear because she has been in Jaipur since 4 months but never heard anything of this sort. Next day I took her along with me. She was awstruck after looking at the place. 

As we were returning back I found a sick labrador lying. I felt touched and with the help of my friend  I took him to a vet clinic. Luckily he was fine after some hours of treatment. Whe. Enquired to doctor he said that this dog has went through a mental trauma, may be lost a friend or someone close to him. He was injured with an object. This was matter of tussle. I then wondered why would he be in such a condition. When I recalled about the place, it was in thick jungle the open ground is not completely open but open enough to have a get together. May be a animal get together. Everything seemed too messed up I was just beating round the bush. 

To my luck I have a new member in my family. The Labrador was white coloured with dark brown eyes, fury skin. Must say very expressive eyes. Whe. I first saw I did feel a snow ball is sleeping so I named him snowy from that day. To the god's grace I do understand what animals speak. Snowy was very very silent unlike other dogs he never played, neither ate properly. I was worried about his health and consulted the doc again. He recommended that I should be around snowy. It was not possible when I am in ofiice. So I bought him a gps locater chain which a speaker connected to my phone. Intially he was very scared to see just an allien object but he realised that whenever I am away he can be around me. Another thing which was not usual was while he goes for a walk with me in the morning. He enjoys a lot, we play and he I give him a good  massage. But wen we reach the place where he was fainted he gets furious. 

I sensed something fishy again, so along with snowy I went to the forest that night. I told my friend about it. She came along with her fiance there. We were slowly moving, as we were nearing the round I could hear some voices. Luckily as I trained snowy he didn't bark at all. He was a great companion then. I could not understand much but some people were gathered in the space and were talking about some flight and birds. 

Ten minutes later they exchanged a suitcase and left the place. This scene was confusing for me. We came back and me and my friend jotted whatever we saw. 

Next morning when went for walk snowy  was again getting furious, then I thought of goin along with him where he headed towards. I walked behind him, we were in front of building which seemed moreover like a house.  It did not look one from outside as it was covered with creepers but I could see a little window. There were birds in that house. 

Then I realised that these men were smuggling international birds to India illegally. To my surprise snowy hopped inside and to save him I jumped along with him. There were armed body guards and they did fire too. This great warrior took the bullet on his leg. Goodness I got so restless and furious. Imidiately we left the place and called the doc, he came to my place. 

I informed about this to my friend and the military police. They quickly jammed the place and my friend brought all the birds. Snowy was senseless untill the birds chirping he heard. It brought tears in my eyes, one of them was his friend( a parrot). I have no idea about their first meeting but this meeting was so pure and so lovely. From then onwards I kept all the animals with me. I had to puchase a new place for them.

 After this incidence really wondered what should I call it? Is it just friends or best friends or soul best friends?
