“Who is that Dog?”

That was the day. I am shocked. I could not able to believe my self. I checked and re-checked. Yes, I am not wrong. I heard what she really said. “Who is that Dog?” Female voice asked from other side. She laughed and said Suresh. It is almost seven years old incident. I am still afraid of it.
To day she brought her daughter and called me interact. I am afraid. The kid may ask “Mom who is this Pig?”
Pig may be an avatar of Vishnu, dog may be a faithful pet, but I have my name. I have dignity of a living being. I smiled at her when her sister called me dog. I was really do not know what to do. I thought it was a different culture where I did not grew up. To day I know what dignity is. I know how to respect others, not only my friends but also other beings like me. I am happy because I did not grow up in the culture. I have never seen such address any where else. I am afraid; the kid may call me ‘Pig’.
