…so very much.
I wish I never let you go. I wish I’d held on to my selfishness and held on to you stronger. I also wish I had not got so attached to you. Well, you gave me no option, did you, but to love you so much, so deeply, so genuinely…you being you?
It is heart breaking to go home now. There is no one waiting for me, no hugs, no wet kisses, no show of emotions that lets me know that I’d been missed, and it’s great to have me home. There is nothing you left behind, for me to hold on to when I miss you like crazy; all I have now are some photographs of those happy days, which I go over every single day, remembering those precise moments, those days of pure joy—and love.
Everything I do now—right from when I wake up in the morning, to when I go to bed—I wonder what you’d have done if you were here…how you’d have reacted…how I may have done it differently, just for you…how much happier I’d have been, having you, knowing you’re there, every moment.
A full day at home is so unbelievably depressing. I have no one to talk to for hours together; no one to just sit with in silence and feel absolutely content; no one to take a walk with on a nice evening; no one to share my cookie with; no one to pester and generally have some fun with; no one to drive me mad and then make me laugh; no one to hug and cry my heart out when I’m depressed; no one to look at me calmly and let me know it’ll be OK; no one that is YOU.
Why, oh why, did I let you go? What was I thinking? I never knew anyone could bring such meaning into my life, mean so much to me, and then just drive off one morning breaking my heart into a million pieces…and leaving me to deal with a difficult life all by myself.
Please come back. I’m so in love with you, I can’t bear to not have you by my side. Can’t live without seeing you everyday…hugging you every moment I can, telling you how much I love you, and just how glad I am that I have you in my life. And right now, I really need you with me. Really, really. Come back…
Pumbaa, please come back. I miss you…so very much, Chakkare

Edited to add (after I realised people are worried about what happened to Pumbaa): He is totally fine, vacationing with my parents, in Trivandrum…and will be back only by end of March. Been over a month since he left And while we’re at it, I miss my parents too 
Priya – you are blogging after so long! Where have you been? Where is Pumbaa?
I hope everything is okay…
Yes, after a long time…life’s been topsy-turvy since sometime now
All’s well, of course
hey what happened to pumbaa.. i dont see you on face book also these days.. is everything alright?
Pumbaa’s on vacation, girl
Hibernating for sometime.
As for FB, got soooo bored with it, I deactivated my account
Hey… thought he was at your parent’s house for a month. Is he not back yet?? What happened?
He is…and no, not back yet. Will be March end
He also miss u……..he will come back soon
Thank you for adding the ETA note. I am sure Pumbaa misses you too.
Hope all going good, a post from you after a very long time.
Take care!
Hehehe…yea, i guess it leave quite a lot to imagination otherwise.
Hope to blog more often 
Thanks!
He does not really seem to miss me much, which is why i’m even more concerned
All’s OK, not very good
phewwwwwww I got worried there till the last few lines …
Well you know for next time then what to say when e is wanting to go vacationing ..
a big NOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooo
Hehehe…sorry about that
Yes, it’s definitely a no…and it helps to know that he will not throw a tantrum then
Oh my I thankfully saw that ETA first! Phew!
Hehehe…you scroll right down to the end first? To see how long the post is?
Ayyo nahin re! I was hoping to read that everything is alrite
I read the whole post, sacchi 
OK, OK. I have complete faith in ya
Nice post. Been long!
thanks! Yes, been tooo long, in fact.
you did get most of us worried with the first part of the post…glad to read the ETA
and LOL on miss my parents too 
Hehehe…that was not the intention, really. I’m soooo used to considering him a person, it did not occur to me that people may think i’m perhaps writing about someone human
Hehe…yea, sometimes they tend to get sidelined (and my mom is good at noticing things like that, sigh) in all that love for the little fur ball
Gosh Priya, thanks for adding that note! Scatterbrain that I tend to be sometimes, I was worried.
He will be back soon worry not.
Sorryyyy
I realised late that people could actually misinterpret. scatterbrain here too sometimes, a lost one at that 
Scorpria, I have to sue you because your post almost killed me!!!!!!
The edited to add should have been your intro (in interest of the weak hearted pumbaa lovers!)
Hugssssss, hope March flys by!
Till then, you should sing this – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBK0i83ip78
Sowwwiiee
Thaaanks, I hope so too. We’re actually thinking of going earlier and getting him back. looks like school is reopening sooner this time, so vacation will need to be cut short
Yea, i sing that all the time
oh no! the note helped :p
OMG, till I reached the end I was worried! Thanks God Pumbaa is only vacationing. But I know how you must be missing him.
Yea, like terrrrrrrrrribly.
I somehow knew from the very first line that it was “Pumbaa”.. btw long time since you wrote.. busy with the new job I guess??
Hehehe…good. You saved me from apologizing one more time
Naah, not busy or anything…just dealing with life at the moment
Hows you?
Only if Pumbaa had the ability to write, we all could have read a different version of this post – one that of freedom and independence !
Jokes aside, when it comes to pets, I learnt one thing Priya, – never get attached to them! I am not as half attached as you are with my snowy, but now he is going through a very bad time…very very bad time…and I am not able to console myself on something that could happen anytime! He is 12 years old, could be out of old age, pakshe he is suffering a lot and theres nothing that we could do about it. He has been taken care extremely well and I salute my mom for all that she has been doing for him. and the lill one, he is so brave! Never seen anyone like him !
Thendiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (Pumbaa calls out to you in Mukesh style, for making horrible statements about him).
Hehehe…i’ve been thru that a couple of times. Ennalum, tough not to get so attached… And i definitely like dogs than i like most people
esp you!
Paaaaaavam Snowy
i don’t know what to say…hugs and kisses to him.
Thank god for the p.s. part! hope he is back now?
Hehe…not yet!
