Domino (2012)
“He rushed to the family room. “Did you find him?” he asked.
“Who?” Dad asked. He and Mom were both standing up, folding sheets.
“Domino.”
“He wasn’t in either of your rooms?” Mom asked.
“No,” said Michael. “I can’t find him anywhere.”
“I was just in the office,” Dad said. “He wasn’t there.”
“Who wasn’t where?” Mia paraded into the room with two bowls of mint-chocolate-chip ice cream held high.
“Domino’s missing,” Michael said.
“What?” Mia put down the ice cream.
“We’ll have to check every corner of the apartment.” Mom dropped an unfolded sheet back into the laundry basket. “If he isn’t here, we’ll have to check the streets.”
Mia’s chin trembled. “He has to be here,” she said. “He wouldn’t run away.”
Michael knew how she felt, especially since they had just talked about Callie. Still, Michael didn’t think Domino had gotten out. The little kitten would have had to get past their apartment door, and then he’d have had to slip through the front door at the end of the hallway when someone ...opened it.MoreLess
