The thought of leaving their life in New York, their friends and routines, was daunting. But Sarah knew there was no other choice. She trusted Ethan, and if he said they needed to hide, then she believed him.
They packed quickly, taking only the essentials. Ethan had a plan, a safe house in a remote location, a place where they could disappear until the threat passed. Sarah's heart ached as she looked around their apartment one last time, memories of their life together flooding her mind.
Their journey to the safe house was tense. They traveled through the night, taking back roads and switching cars to avoid being followed. Ethan was vigilant, his eyes constantly scanning their surroundings. Sarah tried to stay calm, but the fear of the unknown gnawed at her.

Dog Thirteen
Dog Thirteen June 4, 2023 Today was different. To be fair, all days are different now that I am a new dog. Every day I seem to be able to do something new- open my eyes, stand up, hobble around, wag my tail. Every day I get stronger and more comfortable in this body. It’s not bad, being a dog. Not so far, at least. I never have to go hungry, although we are feeding from our mother less and less and trying new foods that come out of a bag and a can. It’s a mixture. I wish I could tell the humans that I prefer the food from the can. I try to show them by picking out the kibble pieces and spitting them onto the ground, but they just laugh and think I am being cute. That feels frustrating, to not be understood. But I cannot stay mad for too long because the humans pick me up and pet my head and body and it makes me feel happy inside, and now that I know how to wag my tail, I try to do that a lot.
