toulouse, france
3:45PM"still no answer on toulouse?" ally asks, coming into the room where i was sitting down on the bed with toulouse, stroking him, he had slowly built some trust with me which felt great, having this dog who knew me out of know where he able to trust me this quick.
i shake my head, "no, i've had a lot of people messaging about adoption centres in toulouse but nothing about the dog and if they know the owner." i tell her and she nods her head, coming to sit on the bed besides me, making toulouse a bit more weary.
"are you going to adopt him?" ally asks me, and i nod my head.
"i'll need to speak to my parents about it but if i don't get a reply by the time we reach paris then yeah, probably."
"you should probably call them now, they're probably just about to leave i think, according to time zones." ally tells me and i nod my head, shes right. "i'll leave you to call them, yeah?"
she leaves the room and i pull my phone out from my back pocket, scrolling down the contacts until i find my mother's phone number.
"hey honey, how's france?" she asks as soon as the call connects, i smile softly hearing her voice through my phone, "you don't usually call at this hour, what's wrong?"
"hey mom-" i begin, clearing my throat gently, "uhm, france is good, yeah it's very pretty. i really like it. listen, something happened and i need to talk to both you and dad, is he around?" i ask, hopeful.
he normally leaves earlier so i'm hoping he's still around, "he is, he is leaving in a minute though." she tells me.
"ok mom, you and dad go to the living room quickly so i can facetime both of you." i say.
"honey you're beginning to worry me." my mom warns and i chuckle.
"don't worry mom, it's nothing to worry about i promise."
"ok honey we're in the living room." my mom tells me, i take my phone away from my ear and press the facetime button, seeing their faces shortly after.
"so what did you need to tell us rockstar?" my dad asks and i chuckle, i look over to my right where toulouse was, playing with his toy.
"so-" i begin, flipping my camera, "this is toulouse, the possible newest member of the atkins family." i say with a chuckle, my mother's hand flies up to her mouth and my dad chuckles.
"oh darling, he looks so sweet." my mom coos, making me chuckle. "but what do you mean by possible, you haven't adopted him yet?" she questions, i flip the phone back to me and shake my head.
"not yet, toulouse is a stray and i took him in, but i posted something on my instagram to see if anyone knew anything about him, before adopting him." she nods her head.
"that's a good idea darling, we do really have to leave now but keep us informed and i can't wait to be able to see toulouse." we say our quick goodbyes and then i'm greeted by my home screen.
"well toulouse, looks like you might be joining our family soon." i whisper quietly to him, stroking him.
i was secretly hoping that no one knew anything about him.
toulouse quickly went back to playing with his toy as soon as i stopped stroking him.
i just really wanted this dog all to myself.
