Description Next morning I woke with the hot sun flooding into the room I was asleep in, my head was propped up on top of Scotti, I smiled as I petted the poor dog. "hey scotti, sleep well?" I asked him. Scotti did a soft bark and wagged his tale. As I patted Scotti I could feel his tummy rumble with hunger. "I'll try to find us something to eat boy, I do not know how, I will try" I told him sorry. That I did not have food for him.

I stood from my place on the bundle of cloth's and looked outside, I could see a few people walking close to my house, here's my chance I mumbled to myself. I told Scotti to stay inside and he did and I went out, I was going to ask for some money or anything honestly.

This woman with a child walked by me, and I just instantly called out to them, they turned around and saw me waving my arms in the air trying to get their attention.

"Hi, hello, please, could you help me?" I asked hopeful. To the dear lady, she gave me a worried stair nevertheless shook her head any way. "Ma'am I need food, my house here is Empty, Please could I have some help?" I asked her. Not wanting to tell her I was really homeless and just broke into this abounded house to sleep in. "okay, I do not know how to help really" she told me doubtfully. I looked at her. "maybe just some money" I asked her, she dug into her purse to come up with five bucks.

"this is what I have, Here" She told me. I smiled thankful she could give me something. "Thank you ma'am" I told her with tears in my eyes. I hated asking for money from random people, But I needed to eat and so did Scotti.

I asked the next man that past me, he pushed me out of his way and cursed under his breath at me. I shuffled my feet as I waited for the next person to come by, I needed at least ten dollars for something to eat.

By noon I had nine bucks and a few pennies. I went to go get Scotti and I found him in my room sleeping. "Hey Scotti, Let's go get you something, you hungry boy?" I asked him, he jumped with a start and ran and jumped on me. "Okay, let's go to the market then" I told him and we headed out the door, Scotti was a smart dog he stayed by my side the hole walk.

Okay stay here I told him, as I Entered a bakery. I looked around for anything really cheap, a few buns and a loaf of bread was the cheapest I could find. I picked those up and paid 2.99$ for them and headed back out, and found Scottie playing with a few kids in front of the small shop.

"Okay now dog food" I told myself. "Come on Scotti" I called and Scotti came and followed next me. As we went down the road to a nearby pet place. I picked up dog food which was three dollars. "damn" I mumbled I only had three bucks left.

"come on Scotti" I told him as we went back home.

I poured Scotti his food and he chowed down. "that good huh" I asked as I watched him eat. I pulled some rolls from my bag and ate a little. I was hungry, the food needed to last me for a little while. After I was done, I got Scotti and I some water from the pipes that still had running water.

I sat down on the pile of cloth's again with Scotti. With are tummies full. "I hope life gets better, life can only get better from here right?" I asked Scotti hoping he could talk to me. He would wine periodically as if we were having a conversation, I had no idea what he was talking about.
