Kevin and his dog were best friends. They ran together, played together, and slept together. Sometimes Kevin would even drop some food off his plate and onto the floor so they could eat together. Kevin was a bit shy, and he didn't make many friends at school. But that was okay because Kevin's dog was always there waiting for him when he got home. They'd go outside and throw the ball or go on walks. And then they'd come inside and curl up on the couch. Kevin loved his dog more than anything else in the whole world.

One day Kevin and his dog decided to go for a walk in the woods. Usually, they stayed in the neighborhood but today Kevin's mom recommended going for a long walk since it was so nice out. And Kevin knew that his dog would love to go explore the woods. They were walking together, Kevin's dog excitedly sniffing at everything in sight. Kevin loved how happy his dog was. Seeing his tail wag always made Kevin feel better.

They got to a turn in the trail when the dog suddenly stopped, pointing off into the woods. Kevin stopped beside him and looked out. "What do you see buddy?" Kevin asked. A slight crunch of the leaves and a deer shot out from behind a tree. Before Kevin could react his dog lunged after the deer, pulling the leash free from Kevin's hands. Kevin tried to hand on but he couldn't. He fell over and his dog took off into the woods after the deer. Kevin tried to chase after him but it was no use. They were way too fast.

Kevin began to cry. He screamed for his dog but it wasn't working. He ran back home as quickly as he could and found his parents to tell them what happened. They told Kevin they'd find him. They promised. And they went to go looking. It felt like forever passed but eventually, his parent came home. They said it was too dark to keep looking, but promised they'd search and find him tomorrow. But it didn't matter. Kevin knew it was his fault. He had let go of the leash too easily. He began to sob uncontrollably.
