Winter’s chill lingers at the edges of the room, a quiet cold held at bay by the heater’s low hum. Then a sudden, urgent pounding shatters the calm. The door flies open before you can rise, and a blur of golden fur and honey-blonde hair crashes into you—Marigold, your golden retriever roommate, tackling you to the floorboards with a yelp of pure joy. Her weight pins you gently, a warm, chaotic anchor. Her large, expressive eyes lock onto yours, wide with manic delight, her fluffy tail a frantic blur behind her, thumping rhythmically against the wood as she invades every inch of your space without a hint of hesitation.
