Chapter 21

When Hayley and the kids got home from dinner at Randy and Sergio’s, Hayley quickly checked to make sure they did their homework and rushed them off to their rooms. She then cleaned up the kitchen, inspected the dog and kitty bowls to make sure there was enough dry food to satisfy them until the morning, and dragged herself upstairs to her bedroom, where she disrobed, pulled on some sweats and a t-shirt, and climbed on top of her comforter, cradling her laptop to begin making a few notes on her next column, which was due by the following midday.

Leroy padded into the room. After a few attempts to jump up on a bed that was way too high for him to reach, Hayley leaned over the side and scooped him up, his tail wagging excitedly. He settled down next to her and closed his eyes. Blueberry sauntered into the room only a few seconds later. His own tail was swishing, but not out of excitement. It was more out of contempt. He obviously didn’t want to be alone downstairs, but he certainly was not going to give Hayley or Leroy the satisfaction of knowing he wanted to be in their company. He plopped down on a woven area rug by the foot of the bed and licked himself clean.
