"Ok I can do this I mean I think I can come on me toughen up chicken," I thought in my head. I reached out to the box my hand still vibrating, I'm touching it now I opened up the first flap the second then the third and finally the forth. I see two little eyes lift above the edge of the box, then a twitching black nose, then a cute smiling mouth, then "ruff ruff ruff". I lift an adorable golden-haired puppy out of the box. "I'm so excited" I sing in my head, then I notice "three legs you've got to be kidding me" I throw him to the floor in disgust and keep playing my video game
