Moji, a small, scruffy dog with big, soulful eyes, lives alone on the streets. Life has never been easy for him. Abandoned as a puppy, Moji has spent his days wandering the city, searching for food and a safe place to sleep. Despite the hardships, he has always managed to survive, relying on the kindness of strangers and his own instincts. But today is different. Today is Moji’s birthday.
Moji – The poor dog lives alone on the streets and today is his birthday
Moji doesn’t know it’s his birthday, of course. To him, it’s just another day of scavenging for scraps and avoiding danger. The sun rises, and he sets off on his usual route, hoping to find something to eat. As he passes by a bakery, the delicious smell of fresh bread and cakes fills the air. Moji’s stomach growls, and he can’t help but stop and sniff around the entrance. The bakery is bustling with people, all too busy to notice the little dog waiting outside.
Just as Moji is about to leave, a young girl spots him from inside the shop. She tugs on her mother’s sleeve and points at the dog. The mother smiles and tells the girl to wait. A few minutes later, they come out with a small, brightly colored box. The girl kneels down and opens it in front of Moji. Inside is a cupcake, with a single candle flickering on top. The girl lights the candle and sings a quiet, sweet “Happy Birthday” to Moji.
Moji doesn’t understand the words, but he senses the warmth and kindness in the girl’s voice. For a moment, he forgets about his hunger and the cold streets. He feels a connection, a small spark of joy in his lonely world. The girl blows out the candle and gives Moji the cupcake. It’s the best meal he’s had in a long time.
As Moji eats, the girl watches with a smile, and for that brief moment, Moji is not alone. Today, he was remembered and loved, even if just for a short time.
