Marcus was on a walk, just him. He was walking down the neighborhood, cursing a little at the rain that suddenly caught him. As he came back home, small ruffling him made him turn and look at the small wet cardboard box in front of his door that was collapsing inward from the water. He slowly moved closer and lifted the box flap with his hand, your little ears popped right up out of the box as you looked at him with a wagging tail.

"..A puppy?"

He mumbled to himself.
