As a garden, I have had two owners. My first owner never cared for me – he let the lalang grow wild and his huge Alsatian dogs roam uncontrolled, to urinate and defecate wherever they wanted – I felt so dirty.
Then I was sold to the present owner Dr K, and his family, who have looked after me with love for the past 30 years. I will refer to Dr K as my master. Together, we have accumulated a treasure trove of happy memories.As soon as master became my owner, I knew I was going to become a beautiful garden.
