Vol. 3: Noah to Haru - Chapter 71

Haru

“Oh, thank God, it’s Toby!” a female’s voice came my way. I glanced around to see a plump woman rushing over to me. “You found him, honey?”

I nodded. “He was injured.”

“Oh, poor thing,” she said, stroking the dog’s head. Toby barked her a happy greeting, which told me he knew her.

Suddenly, the woman turned all professional. “I’m Katy, and I’m the receptionist here at The Princeton Apartment. Wait here, all right? I’ll buzz you in in a second.”

I waited as Katy headed back to the reception area and picked up the phone. When she hung up, she said, “Okay, you can go on up, honey. It’s on the top floor.”

“Thanks,” I said.
