I am 12 years old.
I was not allowed a pet but on my twelth birthday I got a hamster. I thought, oh wow, I got one I named him Chocolate. He was my pal my partner in crime but it was just this past week he died. The experience I’ll never forget. Walking home from school opening the door walking into my room going to the cage looking down at him, I yelled for my mom standing there hoping just hoping he was ok, but he wasn’t. Those words running through my head. God had said to him time to go. I know that but it was too soon for me to let him go
