For the next several mornings, I wake up face-to-face with a blue-eyed dog. This isn’t the cavorting puppy or even the bratty adolescent demanding a romp outside. This is the concerned face of a friend—or even a family member. Each dawn, I open my eyes to find Ari sitting next to me on the bed, peering down and waiting for me to wake. When I do, she looks deep into my eyes, unblinking. She does not look away or urge me to rise. Instead, she sits and watches and waits.

It takes me a very long time to get out of bed these mornings. There, I can pretend nothing is wrong. Once I am fully awake, I will have to acknowledge again that Cam is dead. Delaying that admission brings a false hope I’m willing to champion, even if it is foolhardy. I linger as long as I can, aware that I am being observed and recorded by my subdued dog.
