Under the puppy's boundless enthusiasm, Sophie's heart practically melted.
"You're such a good boy. Did someone teach you that?" Sophie asked the puppy, but her eyes drifted meaningfully towards Colby.
Colby, looking earnest, replied, "Honey, I swear I'm innocent. I've always had my team looking after him."
"Really?" Sophie asked, her curiosity piqued as she glanced at the golden retriever.
The puppy's eyes were locked on Sophie, and it started whimpering softly. Sophie couldn't resist giving it a kiss. It seemed like she and the little pup were truly meant to be.
"What's your name, little one?" Sophie gazed into the puppy's eyes, and as if it understood her, it reached out its tiny paw and gently scratched her belly. Sophie paused, taken aback.
Colby chimed in, "He doesn't have a name yet. Wanna give him one?"
Sophie looked at the puppy, then down at her own belly. Memories of her past life flooded back. When she was pregnant, the doctor had told her she was carrying a boy. She had named him Dawn, often caressing her belly and calling out his name, hoping that when he was born, he would know it.
To her, Dawn symbolized the start of something beautiful. She thought she was finally going to see the light, but instead, darkness enveloped her. She never even got to see her baby before they both tragically passed away.
"Dawn?" Sophie whispered. The golden retriever, with its sharp hearing, perked up and wagged its tail happily at the sound of the name. It nuzzled her palm affectionately.
Trying to hold back her emotions, Sophie smiled, her eyes misting over. "Dawn?" she repeated.
This time, the puppy's tail wagged even more vigorously, and it licked the corner of her lips. Colby petted the puppy's head, saying, "Looks like he really likes that name."
