Act 1


INT. DINNG ROOM - MORNING


Sitting at the dining table, KAJI smells something.


KAJI (V.O.): Strange, the food is different.


Kaji then sees some dumplings.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Not sure what I might have.


Kaji sees PETER pointing his phone camera at her.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): He's doing that again.


Kaji looks away as if she's distracted by something. Peter smiles.


Act 2


INT. DINING ROOM - CONTINUOUS


PETER: You've human character.


Kaji (V.O.) (Cont'd): I don't tell; but you get it.


Kaji continues to observe the food on the table.


PETER: She doesn't know why there's no bread today.


The PACK LEADER and other GANG MEMBERS appear.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It isn't a common sight.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Do they know what does this message mean?


PETER: There's nothing for our darling?


Getting some treats, the Pack Leader places them near Kaji.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): That's my small share.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): And I've to be good to earn them.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Anyhow, Peter has reacted well with my sense of humour.


Having responded to the "Ching Ching" command, Kaji earns a treat.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Peter has never commanded me to do anything.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): He has a sense of good life.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): That's why I love to lick him all the time.


Pausing.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): To the Pack Leader and other Gang Members, I've also shown my love and loyalty with heart.


Pondering.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Does having a sense of humour make me a good pet too?


ACT 3


INT. DINING ROOM - CONTINUOUS


KAJI (V.O.)(Cont'd): Living with the Pack Leader and the Gang, I feel I'm part of them.


Thinking.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): Having a sense of humour should be one good life characteristic.


Pondering.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): It's also my defence against minor troubles.


Kaji takes a look at Peter.


KAJI (V.O.) (Cont'd): I've a hunch we'd have an adventure to fill our souls.


FADE OUT.

THE END
