STORY STARTER

Submitted by Ed Rowe

Write from the perspective of a family puppy adapting to a newborn baby coming home for the first time.

Gone

I miss you

You’re one of my best friends I hope you know that

You stood with me in the chained cells that they imprisoned us both to

Even freed we never unlocked the chains connecting us

I know this sounds stupid and cheesy

But you ghosted me

You’re like an older brother and you left me

I need you and you left

You always have the answers why do you always have the answers

I’m sure if I got in trouble you’d be there

But I want you as more than a brother I want you as a friend

Not just the guy saying he’s going to throw rocks through my exs window or the guy who lets me vent but the guy I can laugh with and the guy who can talk to me

You can talk to me I swear

I know you think I’m young and dumb, and sure I am but I want to help you, please let me

We used to have so much fun but now it’s only when I need you

And god I need you, just not as a guardian but as a companion
