"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

My beloved dog, friend and brother
You are now gone, no longer in this world. You’re not with me anymore. You were my friend, my brother and you were always there.
I’m in my room right now, alone, because you are not here with me, like you always were. You would lay on the floor, breathing very loud, maybe bark in your sleep, I would always feel you presence.
You would always come and attack me when I came home from school, you would lick my legs and face, bump my hips so I almost fell. You were so strong. But I don’t think you knew just how big and strong you where.
I’m smiling with tear streamed eyes
I’m glad I can smile at our great memories, it’s hard now, but it will get easier with time I hope. I will always miss you, because you were so special to every single one of us. But now you’re gone.
It was the best for you, I know that, but it doesn’t make it any easier to let you go.
I will always love you, always remember you with a smile on my face.
Thank you for making my years better, and supporting me in the very bad times, you struggled a lot, we struggled a lot, but things got better for us.
And now you’re gone. When will the times be better again?
I don’t want to say goodbye yet.
I want to have you here.
But you are in a much better place now, with grand mom and your cousin who’s with her. You are welcomed in that much better place, and I will come soon to live with you again.
Please don’t forget me, because I will never forget you

I love you so much
