When his dog
passed
I was very
sympathetic
The dog was
great
and the boy
clearly
loved him
as
did
his
whole family
I live next door
and
told him
“You know
I would give
anything
any thing
to
have him back!”
And he quickly
replied
“Anything?”
“Yep
even my piggy bank!”
He actually
kind of
laughed
at
that
and
went on his way
Some time passed
days rolled into
a week
I had not seen
the
boy
except
his going to
and
from
his house
Head down
I
did
notice
that
Not
playing in front
as
much
since
the dog passed
He came
all the way
all the way
to my front door
which
he
had
never done
before
Came all the way
up
and
said
through
the screen door
“Sir,
sir?”
“Here I am”
I went and
opened
the
screen
door
“here I am…”
“Well
can
I have
your piggy bank?”
