Tragic Renewal
“Ziggie mimicked her motions before hopping down from his spot on the couch. She missed the warm weight of him next to her.
He stood next to the couch and waved his tail in a soft side-to-side motion, its curl preventing a true wag. She looked into his eyes, and though she could still see the sadness she saw the day before, there now was also a twinkling happy spark. She reached to rub his ears. He groaned with pleasure at her touch then stretched his body in a spine cracking stretch. With a... final tail twitch he walked away and pushed through the doggie door. Harper watched as the semi-transparent plastic flapped back into place after he disappeared through the wide opening.
A sense of contentment filled her with a warm sensation, foreign in her life over the last few years. Though it would take time to adapt to this new life, she knew she had made the right decision. She would miss Cara every minute of every day, but over time she knew things would get better.MoreLess
