Episode 38: The One

February 15, 2020Fictionthe-daily-drabble

The One The three-legged one-eyed foxhound once bit through the ulna of a one of his bullies and was rewarded with a slab of steak stolen from his stepfather’s freezer. When the girl he’d adored with heartsick insomnia for almost a decade made a disgusted face at his animal, he exiled her from his mind and his life. When the dog did not wake up, he wept until he was dehydrated. Years later when he briefly considered owning another dog, he felt a pang of guilt so deep and so hot he fell to his knees and begged forgiveness for his infidelity.
