A Great Surprise

A great surprise 

One day in 2009, me and my friends were playing football as usual when suddenly my father came along and told me that I had to go back home because a friend of him was coming all the way from another city to visit us. Of course that I wasn’t really happy to flunk out the match, but as my dad looked pretty content that I was going to meet his friend, whom he had invited, I just smiled and headed back home. 

After a while, some members of our family started to arrive home but there were no signs of that  mysterious friend that I longed for to see. Because of that, I started asking about who this person was, and why he wanted to meet me if he was just my father’s friend. Furthermore, as I was asking too much, my parents decided that it would be better if I helped my grandma with some cooking stuff instead of wondering even more about the situation. 

Eventually, after probably more than an hour later, I began thinking that this guy probably had put off this meeting because it was a Sunday and he probably had to wake up early the next day. But suddenly, someone appeared,it was my great uncle carrying a suspicious little handmade wooden truck with something covering its trailer, which I immediately told to uncover. As soon as I did that, I came by a little puppy, which my parents told me that was this friend who longer for me. 

Finally, this dog really became my friend and after more than 12 years, I still remember that day as one of the most remarkable ones.
