Jake's eyes snap open, he quickly turns to the side. But his aching heart, the spot where Max always sat on the couch remains empty. He takes in a deep breath - really more of a sigh - and squeezes his eyes closed.
I hope that by sleeping in to the darkness of a nap, i will temporarily mask my sorrow.
Jake by Jim Barlett
ILLUSTRATE BY Alwyn Encina
For 15 \years, they were inseparable. Always side by side. The walks on the beach with the gentle waves calling, the seagulls cawing, All those hikes on the trail and even just a ride to the grocery store for something Martha may have forgotten
Though he knows in some way he should be thankful for just - having their time together- moments forever etched in his heart. Somehow , he is missing the years that could have happen
As his eyes well up, he realizes for the first time how hard it is even to rise with such a heaviness inside.
Unable to sleep , he looks around the all too empty room, letting his gaze fall upon the leash, which still hangs from the peg by the door.
It seems to wait patiently, ever ready for the next big adventure.
It is then he hears a shuffle from behind and turns to see Martha standing in the doorway, her shoulder resting against the frame.
I thought you might be here . I miss him, too, Jake. More than you'll ever know.
There's a faraway melancholy tone to her voice, but he know her heart, like his , has a hole too big to fill
I guess you do know , don't you , Jake.
