I wake to the sound of my pup pad ringing. I wonder what it is this time. I think with a sigh and answer it. “It’s Ryder.” I say before looking down. “Good evening Ryder, I’m afraid I have bad news.” The Earl of Barkingburg says while bringing a cloth to his forehead. “What happened?” I ask, suddenly on the edge of my bed. “Well you see… Chase has disappeared. We figured he’d show up eventually… but we haven’t seen him. And Sweetie's gone too…” I give a small shake of my head and pull up Chase’s locator. “It says he's right here Earl.” I say and walk down the stairs.
I get to his pup house and it opens soundlessly, and there it sits. Wrapped in a normal way with a little note written in a pups sloppy way. I show the Earl with my heart growing heavy. “Dear Ryder, I’m sorry I can’t give this to you in person, but I have to leave. I promise it’s none of your faults, I just need to find out who I really am inside. I’ll be back one day… I love you guys.”
The first feeling is of pure disbelief, this was all some cruel prank. Any moment now Chase would jump out from someplace and yell, “Expect him!”. But this time it felt different… like it was...real. “Ryder I’m sorry.” The Earl says and hangs up the phone gently. He leaves me on my rear in the driveway of my home. Wondering… where is my beloved pup? What have I done to make him leave like this? What should I do now?
