When Crystal got home, she was laying in her bed with tears in her eyes. "I got no one Momma. I'm alone now" she said after explaining to Linda about the incident at the party.

"Crystal you'll be okay. Remember Jesus, he is always with you" Linda said, rubbing her shoulder.

"Yeah... but it's just so hard Momma. I wish I could fly away."

"You'll get through it. I know you will." Linda encouraged her, rubbing her hair. She gave a goodnight kiss on the cheek. "Goodnight" Linda cuts the lamp off.

"Goodnight Momma"

Crystal said her prayers and was about to go to sleep but she felt something jumped on her bed. Crystal gasped, it almost scared her until she saw that it was her dog, Flo.

"Flo? You scared me!"

"Flo? You scared me!"

The dog licked her on the face. "Oh you came to lay with me? How sweet!"

Her and her mom usually leave the dogs on the porch, but tonight Flo found her way inside. "I'm so glad you are here." The dog whimpered.

"Ssshh quiet"

Crystal fell to sleep, cuddling her dog.
