Haley, a sweet dog, is celebrating her 5th birthday today, but instead of joy, there’s a sense of loneliness in the air. Her owners, who always made her birthdays special, are abroad this time, leaving her without anyone to celebrate with.
She sits by the window, her tail wagging faintly as she watches the world outside, hoping for a familiar face or a comforting word. But the house is quiet, and the playful energy she usually feels on her birthday is missing. Though her heart longs for her family, Haley holds onto the hope that next year, her birthday will be filled with the love and warmth she’s used to.
For now, Haley spends her 5th birthday waiting, dreaming of the day her family will return and make her feel special again.
