au revoir, vijay...

This morning one of my close friend, Dina, sent me a short sad message.

"fi, vijay's passed away..... :'("

Well,it's sad,but not so shocking. Every living creature has to go to somewhere up there one day,rite?including,vijay. Vijay Malhotra. Maybe you're guessing now, who is Vijay? A friend of exchange program? No. The guy next door? Another no. A movie star from India? Oh, please..

Vijay Malhotra is Dina's pet. Male hamster. I never like hamster before, because i can't find the difference between hamster and rat. Well, i'm not sweet. But i like Vijay. Cute, little hamster with white fur. And biting hobby. He bites everything, especially Dina's finger.

I guess he died because of dehidration. Dina treated Vijay like she treated her (dead) rabbit, Satsuke. Water is restricted for rabbit. Dina thought that water is restricted,too, for hamster. So, from the first she bought Vijay, about two weeks ago, she never let him drink.

But yesterday, we have talked to our junior on college, Rezdy, who has a hamster,too. He's so shocked when heard about Vijay and Tumi (Dina has two hamster) which never see water for about two weeks. He shouted, almost yelling to Dina,

"They will die tomorrow!Give them drink!"

Dina was so afraid and went home soon. She let them drink. But it's too late for Vijay. I'm hoping it's not too late for Tumi. Tumi is still alive rite now, although she looks so exhausted. Tumi, fight! Vijay, au revoir.....
