rainy night

                                   


February 11, 2015 prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less) write a story that demonstrates compassion. 

Finishing her frugal dinner of dry loaf of bread and yoghurt, she tucked

the spare loaf into the wicker basket for next morning.

The rain lashed on the window pane engulfing her little cottage with its

ferocity.

Who could it be at the door at this time of the night? There was no soul 

when she saw through the peep-hole.  She cautiously opened the door 

and he sneaked inside between her legs.

Ramming the door she looked into his innocent eyes sending waves of compassion.

Woof, woof he said. Smilingly, she took out the loaf. 

Tomorrow is another day.
