In a village in South Korea, a stray dog roamed the streets. The dog particularly liked the owner of an oriental medicine clinic. The owner of the clinic and the dog grew fond of each other. Soon the dog lived on the clinic grounds.
The dog loved being around the director. It visits the director even during his work hours. The director always plays with the dog during his free time. But sometimes, he enjoys playing with his dog too much that he loses track of time.
The dog annoyed the director’s wife
The director’s wife sometimes needed to fetch him when patients wait in the clinic. His wife dislikes the dog because it bothers her husband’s work. Every time the dog enters the clinic, it leaves a mess that the director’s wife had to clean.
The patients grew accustomed to the dog. Even the director’s wife learns to ignore the dog’s presence since she can’t do anything about it. What can she do when her husband loves the company of this dog so much.
One evening after the last patient left, the director noticed the place was unusually quiet. He searched for the dog in the clinic and the yard. When he could not find his dog, he went out to the nearby streets to look for it. Sadly, the director went home alone after dark.
The director was in the right place when the fire started
The director decided to stay in the receiving room to wait for his dog to return. While waiting, the director fell asleep on the couch. Suddenly, the ceiling lamp short circuits and burst into flames. Luckily, the director was nearby and woke up. He immediately stood up and went to get the fire extinguisher. He extinguished the fire a few moments later.
Luckily, the director was in the receiving room when the ceiling lamp caught fire. Later that night, the dog returned to the clinic. Though unintentional, it was faith that the dog went missing that day. Even the wife of the director was thankful and had a change of heart towards the dog.
