When I saw the golden puppy wagging his fluffy tail, and my dad grinning with excitement of the surprise, I screamed at the top of my lungs. The golden retriever, who was wagging his tail with excitement, ran toward my and leaped into my arms.

“He’s yours. You deserve it Emily, you’ve done so well with me working more and seeing Lucy so often. No matter what, I want you to know that I love you Em,” my dad told me.

I ran to him and enveloped him in a bear hug along with my new puppy. Then I sat down and started to think of names for my new dog. “Max, no, Duke, no, Oliver, no, OH I GOT IT!!!!! Bailey!!!” The puppy cocked his head at me and seemed to approve. “Alright Bailey, time for a run to Petco to get you some new puppy things!”

Just as I said that My dad interrupted me by telling me, “Hold up Em, Get the keys and look in the trunk of my car. There you will find everything he needs.”

I walked outside, with Bailey right at my heels, and opened the trunk of my dad’s car. I gasped with shock at I saw what was inside.
