Cooper ran back to him and danced around him, eager to play. Luke felt bad because the poor dog had been tied up again.
Luke picked up a wooden stake and tossed it across the yard. Cooper launched himself after it, his long legs scrabbling for purchase on the ground. He picked it up and ran back dropping it at Luke’s feet.
They kept it up for a few minutes; though Cooper could have gone on until he dropped, Luke was hungry.
He straightened and sent one last look toward the house. He saw two faces looking out from one of the windows of the house. Todd and Autumn.
Todd was smiling, and to Luke’s surprise, Autumn was as well.
He waved and the kids waved back. When Cooper came back to him with the stick, he saw Autumn point at them both, then laugh.
It bothered him that this little girl appeared so afraid of his dog. Cooper had such a good heart and he sensed, given the chance, she might appreciate him as well.
And then he had an idea.
Chapter Four
Carry the two and add four and no matter how she worked it, her amazing plan would require a lot of work. And cash input.
Janie pushed her hands through her hair, wishing away the number on the computer screen of her laptop. She had to have punched something in wrong.
With a sigh, she started checking her figures, fully aware of the ticking clock. She only had a few more minutes before she had to take Suzie to dance practice. But she had to get this right before she brought it to Mr. Chernowyk. She was counting on this audacious plan to shift her financial circumstances.
