Your name is Emily Rodriguez, you're 16 years old. You're a junior in high school. You live with you mom, dad and 2 brothers. You spent most of your life in New York but one night you over heard your parents talking about moving to Massachusetts. You never really had any friends or boyfriends because everyone you know is fake so you don't even care or want to do that. You always wanted a pet but your dad is severely allergic to cats and your mom is scared of dogs. You have always asked them for a pet but they always gave you the same reason as to why you can't have one. Until the day you turned 15, you got up the morning of your birthday and walked downstairs, saw your parents standing behind a medium sized box. You looked at them confused and asked them what was going on and they just said,
"Open the box."
You were hesitant at first then you walked towards the box and opened it. As soon as you looked inside you saw a golden retriever puppy look up at you. You start to tear up while picking up the puppy, you place the puppy in your lap and your mom asks,
"What are you going to name her?"
You look at the puppy in your lap and say,
"Molly, her name is Molly."
The puppy starts to lick your face, then she yawns lays down and falls asleep. You look up at your mom and say,
"I thought you were scared of dogs."
She looks at you and says,
"I am but you keep saying how badly you wanted a pet. So we decided to get you a puppy, since your father is allergic to cats."
You don't say anything you just look down at the puppy and smile.
