Chapter 110: A dream come true
***
Amber’s POV
“Awe look at that one,” I tell Hope, pointing out the fluffy white puppy bouncing around the room, “He looks like a good boy to me!”
We’re at the animal shelter today, in hopes of cheering up both Hope and Dan. It’s been a week, and Hope is completely back to normal physically. It’s what she’s been through that haunts her. Even though it’s very likely that neither that witch nor Cindy will never be released, she’s hurt by what’s happened. And I know that she misses Ranger..
“Let’s have a closer look,” Hope says with the first genuine smile I’ve seen since she’s been ill, “Oh yes, he’s definitely a good boy!”
She picks up the wiggly ball of fluff and he licks her cheek immediately, clearly excited to meet her. Her musical laugh is back, and it’s wonderful to hear.
