I kept running and not looking back, me and the girl ran through the grocery store and hid in a isle. The community police couldn't find us as they walked around the store holding guns. The girl grabbed a bag of chips then put drops of red food coloring on the floor, we got and snuck out the store.

Hey I think I found some blood on the floor come check it out said one of the police.

We ran and jumped into a a small metal dumpster by matts house. We were squished and it smelled like dog shit. Me and the girl looked at each other and burst out laughing

Hi my names Kenny I said introducing myself in the garbage can my names Casey she said smiling.so why were the police chasing you in the first place I wondered I-I broke into a store and stole food because I don't have much money and my parents they uh passed away about a year ago so I live on my own now she said frowning so what's your story why are you out here passed lock down time she smirked. Well it's my birthday and after school I went to the park and hung out for a bit.. I uh lost track of time I said hahaha lost track of time then what's the point of the new watch on your wrist she snickered.

I shook my head my head smiling then I heard a whine coming from outside the garbage can I tapped on casey
Wake up I whispered what is it she replied in a tired voice.
I peeked out the lid and seen a brown, black and white dog with floppy ears whining at me. He had a blue tag on his ear with numbers on it. Theirs no dogs in this town I thought to myself. He was standing on the black top of a parking lot.

It's its a dog I whisper yelled to Casey,a dog ? Is it mean? she asked with curiosity I don't think so I said peeking out of the lid.

I started to lift the lid and step out of the garbage can but I was stopped by a tug on my pant leg where are you going !?! Casey whispered. I looked at her with a impatient look I'll be fine Casey I'm just gonna see if he's nice I said in a onrey voice getting oh of the garbage can. The dog stood watching my every move.

His tail slowly waved side to side walking to me, I set my hand on the dog's head and started to pet the dog. hey casey you can come out of the garbage now I said hitting the lid. Casey came out of the garbage and spoiled the dog with attention.
