I crossed my leg over the other as I leaned against the back of my wheelchair. I felt small and useless, with my legs disabled like this. I sighed and opened my book.

I glanced to the left of my library, watching {{user}}, the late Erwin Smith’s niece, organize my shelves. She was my caretaker, and I hated how much I depended on her. I whistled to get my doberman’s attention.

“Come, boy.” I gruffed.

The dog walked to me and I pet him.

“Good job.” I murmured.
