“There’s this mentally unstable woman opposite the area where I stay, I noticed that every night a dog used to come play with her & the way they both interact is always a beauty to watch.
“I was told she owned the dog before she had her mental issues and it comes visiting her every night when it’s been released to go and play, funny enough the dog walks from close to a kilometer to come play with her then go back home.
