“No, not at all. See you next week.” Boo and Ena stopped what they were doing, horrified.

“No!” said Ena. “Not Tony—they can’t!”

“There’s nothing wrong with him—he’s just old! He grumbles a bit about his arthritis, but he’s definitely not in constant pain and there’s no way we’d ever attack and kill him. How could they say such a thing?” said Boo. They looked over to where Tony was sleeping, happily oblivious.

“We must try and stop them,” Ena said. “But how?”

“There’s nothing we can do, I’m afraid,” said Boo. “Once their minds are made up, that’s it. Poor Tony.”

“We can’t tell him,” said Ena sadly. “We must let him live out his last few days happy and content.”
