- Here, I got you a breakfast burrito.  You want the ham or the bacon?
- I don't feel like eating meat today.
- Huh?  What happened—Was the pup in the kennel?
- No, it was mainly pitbulls.  One of them had a huge bone in its mouth and was smiling at me like a baby.
- Pitbulls smile?
- There was a ten year old chihuahua with a fat stomach and one eye missing.  It didn't move when I went near it.  His missing eye was stiched up like a rag doll's.  I don't know what's going to happen.
- Let it be, I guess.
- Is it selfish to not think about it anymore?
- It doesn't make sense to dwell on the sad sensation, Today.  At least, it does no good, I think.
- I ran out of there.  It was too much.  I shouldn't have cried in front of it—what if it realized what I was thinking?
- Jeez, don't think like that.  Dogs are stupid.
- There were also two little ones together in the cage.  One of them was humping their bed and the other was up front staring at me. 
- It was probably saying look what I have to go through.
- I thought you said dogs are stupid.
- I'm just joking.  Here, before it gets cold.  
- No.
- Don't get sentimental, Today.  Take the bacon.  I want the ham.
- No, I don't want it.
- Why don't you adopt it then?
- I don't know.  I'm afraid.
- You don't have to be afraid.  It's already dead—all that's left is for you to eat it.
- Stop messing with me.  I don't feel good.
- There's other ways you can help, Today.  You're going to be late for class.  Close the door so we can go.
