Birthday Inspiration
Raoul's birthday gives him an idea
"Your favourite" Milo said, laying a chocolate and caramel cake with 30 candles on the table gently.
"Thank you Milo" Raoul replied, salivating.
If it was up to him, he'd pounce on that cake like a wolf. But the discipline he honed for the past few months allowed him to stop and think.
"Happy birthday to you..." Milo sang, about as enthusiastic as he could be, clapping his wings together.
Raoul was not paying any attention to him. He was thinking about his wish.
And then it struck.
As soon as Milo stopped clapping, the dog inhaled and exhaled like a tempest, the air exhiting his lungs light with purpose.
His future had began.
