Chapter 36: Chapter 36

"Woah!" I gasped as the dog got out of my grip and proceeded to run away. "What gives?" I mentioned with raised eyebrows.

The little boy tried to keep up but he ended up falling on the floor, after which he bursted into tears and yells. "Arrow doesn't love me anymore."

From the little understanding I knew about dogs, I tried to console the boy.

"How are you doing?" I said as I crouched down in front of the boy who seemed to be much in distress. I noticed that hurt was fully on the dog.

"I hate myself!" The boy yelled. "Arrow is right to run away from me.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yes."

"What did you do?"

"I placed her on my shoulder but she slipped and fell. It's my fault, I should have been more careful."

Bark bark!

The dog came back with a piece of bone in its mouth which caused me to smile. The dog directly stood between the boy and I.

"Arrow, don't tell me you have forgiven me already?"
