Although the road to recovery seemed long, within a few days, the puppy's spirits began to lift. It grew curious about its surroundings and slowly shed its fear. Yet, it still sought reassurance and wouldn't venture too far without looking for me, its newfound source of comfort.

Over time, it gathered the courage to explore more freely. One day, spotting me from afar, the pup sprinted in my direction, recognizing me as its new guardian. The day was beautifully serene, and we enjoyed it together.
