A Promise
That night, her worries about the pup only intensified. She knew she had to do more for him – clearly, nobody else would. But what could she do? She lived in an apartment and didn’t have the time to take care of an animal. But she also didn’t want to take him to the pound. There was only one thing she could do.
She promised herself that if the puppy was still there in the morning, she would take him home. And then, she’d take it from there.
