               Morgan had been spending most of her time with her new boyfriend Tristen. They had been going out to dinner or for coffee three times a week. It didn't stop her from spending time with her pets though. They were number one priority to her, she would always take Fidget out for his multiple walks a day and stroke her loving little kitten Figaro. Recently, she had brought Fidget to one of her coffee dates so Tristen could meet her number one man in life. Fidget wagged his tail being on his best behavior for once outside of the house. As a reward for being such a good pup, Morgan bought him one of those little doggie cakes to enjoy while they talked. The cafes cat Precious finally came out from behind the counter to interact with his best buddy Fidget.
               They played together until they both were worn out. Tristen and Morgan didn't even notice that they both were curled up on the floor taking a little nap while they continued talking. It was getting later into the evening when they both finally finished their cups of coffee and left the cafe. They both went separate ways knowing in a couple of days they both will be seeing each other soon. Fidget was walking so slow on the way home, he was one tired puppy. They returned home and Fidget went to go find his little kitten to curl up to for the night and Morgan got ready for bed. It was Saturday morning, moving day has finally come. They were finally moving into a bigger house. New house, new furniture, and a new neighborhood. Morgan was anxious about the move, she was scared at how her two boys would react. A moving van showed up around noon, both boys were stuck in the bathroom locked up as they moved the things to the car. Every two hours, Morgan would bring Fidget out so he could use the restroom then back into the bathroom he went.
                 Finally, it was time to bring both boys over to the new house. The furniture had been placed, their things have been put for familiar smells. It took no time for Figaro to warm up to the new place and enjoy the new leather couch. He made him self right at home on it. Fidget explored and discovered a brand new television that was playing dogs dressed up as Mario characters. He sat in front of the TV for what seemed like hours. After a few weeks of living in this new bigger house with an amazing backyard there was a knock at the door from a delivery person. Morgan wasn't expecting anything today, she was asking the delivery guy if he had the right address and he told her that he did and it was from Tristen. A box covered in small holes was handed to her. It was very heavy and she was excited to see what was in it. Carrying the box inside she placed the box in the middle of the room and went to go get scissors. Fidget immediately ran over and started sniffing the box. His tail was wagging super fast and he was barking softly as if to tell Morgan to hurry up.
                 What could be in the box that makes Fidget so excited and happy? What did Tristen get her this early in the relationship? Where has Tristen been even? He hasn't answered any of her phone calls or texts. Didn't even show up to help her move houses like he promised. As she returned to the living room with the scissors she saw something white inside the box through the holes. She cut open the box carefully and a white head popped out of the box with a gold collar around her neck. Inside was a note for Morgan from Tristen.
             "I am sorry to inform you that your boyfriend Tristen has passed away. He was involved in a car accident three days ago. He was returning home from a late night at work when a driver lost control of his car. Tristen always talked so fondly of you, I could tell he loved you. I am here to take care of his things for my parents. He was a great big brother to me, I am sending you his dog that he recently got in inspiration of you. Her name is Hollywood and she is a female white labrador. Tristen would spend countless nights on the computer telling me how wonderful your guys date was and when he recently met Fidget the other night he felt like he should get a dog as well so the two of them could play on your coffee dates. She doesn't know many commands at the moment. He literally just got her right before the accident. Take great care of her and thank you for loving my brother. Sincerely, Sophia"
