ANNIE

A The worst thing that could have happened to me had just happened. I had lost my best friend. For the next three months, my parents and I did everything we could do to find Annie. We went from door to door in the neighbourhood asking about her. My friends helped me make posters describing Annie and telling about a reward. We even put an ad in the newspaper, but there were no calls.

! В Then, one day, the phone rang. “Hello, my name is

Mrs Peterson. I just saw a poster advertising a lost dog, and I think we have it!”

My heart pounded, and I could barely get the words out as I asked where I could come to get Annie. Mrs Peterson lived only four blocks away, and I raced over there on my bike.

I ran up the stairs and rang the bell. “Hi, I’m Maria Lopez.

I talked to you about my dog.”

“Come in, Maria,” Mrs Peterson said, inviting me into a small, dark living room.

С Annie and I became best friends. She had her own bamboo basket, but she always slept on the foot of my bed. Every morning, when it was time for her to go out, she jumped on my pillow, her wet nose nuzzling my ear. In the afternoon when I came home from school, Annie was always at the door to meet me. She seemed to sense when it was time for the school bus to arrive.

1 D “Happy Birthday, Maria,” my parents said as they handed

me a large box. It was my tenth birthday, and I had given my parents a long list of things I wanted. This box, though, was too big for a video game and not heavy enough for roller skates. Besides that, the box was moving! I tore off the top, and then I saw it — a small, brown puppy! I picked her up and held her in my arms. She wriggled with excitement, licking my face over and over with her rough tongue.

I gulped and thought for a long time. “No, Mrs Peterson, that’s not my dog. I’m sorry.” Sometimes, I learned, giving hurts a lot.

F One day, when I was fourteen years old, I overslept. I had only twenty minutes to dress and get to the bus stop. I asked my mother if she would please feed Annie, and I rushed out of the garden. When I came home that afternoon, I saw the sober look on my mother’s face.

“Annie’s gone, Maria,” my mother said sadly. “You left the gate open this morning, and she ran out of the garden.”

Sitting in a corner was a little boy, about six years old, clutching Annie. Annie looked at him with the same adoring gaze that I had seen so often. The boy was crying.

“Now, Derek, you know that we talked about this. The dog belongs to this girl, and you have to give her back.” The boy cried harder, and Annie licked the tears off his face. “I’m sorry, Maria,” Mrs Peterson said. “Derek lost his dad last year, and this is the first time since then he’s gotten attached to anything.”
