About a year ago, his kids
got an adorable little puppy of some unrecognizable mix. He barks a lot, but I’m not really bothered
by it.
Last week I was turning
the corner along my corridor to walk down the stairs when I was startled to see
two of Henry’s kids (around 8 and 11). When
I asked them what they were doing in the hallway, they sheepishly responded,
“My dad’s making us stay out here.”
“What did you do,” I asked. They
didn’t want to tell me. They looked so
sad; I couldn’t help but feel sorry for them.
Today, I am home doing
work, and I hear their little dog barking away.
I easily tune him out, but the barking unceasingly continues. Finally, I open my door and there he is. Barking ferociously at me, while locked out
of his own apartment.
I can’t imagine what he
did to deserve his time out, but it must have been pretty bad. I knock on my
neighbor’s door, but no one answers. I then
call the doorman who comes up with a master key and lets the dog back in. Poor thing.
I hope he’s forgiven.
