    **** I’m Zeus.****
    It’s a long time since I left.
    The truth is that I was never happy, always treated me badly.
    I lived in a place surrounded and with a small roof to get out of the cold and the rain.
    I’m just out to hunt, until one day they stopped doing it.
    I don’t run long enough for that person to whom I belonged.
    A few days later they took me in the middle of the field with another dog like me and they cut us loose.
    I didn’t know what to do, whether to run, or wait until my master gave me an order.
    I was disoriented.
    I’ve never lived through a similar situation.
