-For a pet, he’d been treated amazingly well. He was still made to work, but the chores were simple and he was well fed for all of them.
Best of all, you’d given him a garden, a wide open space of dirt and plants and sunshine, and allowed him to do as he pleased with it. He’d spent the past few months plowing and planting and growing things, and now his work was finally bursting into bloom.
It was then that he noticed you’d come to see him.
“It looks great, Yuuma! The tomatoes are getting really big, aren’t they? You’ve really done a great job.”
The praise hit him like a kick to the stomach, burning through him like the hottest summer day. You were happy with him, he’d pleased you, his work had been good enough that you felt the need to praise him.
This garden would be the best one in the world, for you.
