People of Malloor call me Billoo the Pariah dog or street dog. I grew up in Kumars street although I was born in the next street. Every day he wishes me on his way to the farm, where he works. The Sun was high up in my sky. Aah! It was time for my nap.
A roti, the size of a big pumpkin appeared before me.
The spicy smell made my mouth water. I opened my mouth wide, ready to bite off a piece of the roti.
I snapped my jaws and woke up from my tasty
dream. My nose instantly caught the aroma of freshly cooked food from Kumars house. I saw Kumars wife cooking in the big brown pot. This was not a dream. And I was ravenous!
I was very clever! I waited for her to finish cooking.
When she went to collect some sticks, I ran into their hut, grabbed a piece of roti and dashed out. I sat under my favourite mango tree and gobbled it up. Mmmmm it was so tasty!
It was time to play. As I walked along the neighbours
farm, I spotted a flock of hen. They were pecking on some seeds. Poor hens! They look so bored. I must play with them, I thought.
Woof! Woof! I barked and chased them around.
Cluck! Cluck! They ran helter skelter. I think they really enjoyed the game.
Just then, I heard a familiar sound. Thump! Thump!
This means only one thing elephants in the village! I rushed to the spot and started barking loudly. Kumar came running. What is it Billoo? asked Kumar. When he saw the elephants, he called all his friends. They came with drums and trumpets and sticks. Boom! Boom! Toot! Toot! They made such a hullabaloo. I too barked loudly until the elephants walked away.
Brave boy Billoo! Thanks for helping us keep the
village safe, Kumar said, patting my head. I think you will like this special roti treat. He gave me a roti. I wagged my tail happily and ate it up quickly. I was ready for more adventures!
