Not knowing what the weather is because I’m not taking them outside anymore.
The blankets staying pulled to my side because there’s no weight on the other end.
No sound of paws behind me. No waiting at the door. No feeding schedule. No staring at me while I eat. No following me room to room. No little routines I never thought twice about… until they stopped.
Just silence where they used to be.
