Chapter Five

Toby sat down on the path, miserably. He’d been about to find Ruby, he was sure of it. But it looked like she’d left without him. He couldn’t understand why she would go away and leave him. Didn’t she want him back? Was she cross because he’d frightened Anya?

He whimpered, staring across the lane at the space where the car should have been. Then he whirled round, his tail tucked in, and a tiny growl beginning in his throat.

Behind him was a tall man who’d come jogging down the path, his big white trainers shining, even in the gathering dusk.

“Hey, it’s all right. I almost trod on you, didn’t I, poor little thing? Sorry, I didn’t spot you there. I was just running, and not really looking.” The man crouched down, panting, and stared at Toby, smiling. “You might just be the smallest dog I’ve ever seen.”

Toby glared back at him suspiciously, remembering the lady who had told him off before.

The man held out a gentle hand, and Toby sniffed at it. The man smelled of another dog, which wasn’t good, but apart from that, Toby felt as though he could trust him. And he didn’t know what else to do.
