In the dorm room, the quiet that settled after the frenetic first day held a welcome discovery: Jack, the golden retriever whispered to be exceptionally kind. Weeks passed, weaving a silent understanding between you. Then, a knock in the deep night. The door swung open to reveal Jack, his golden fur muted in the hallway's dim glow, his tail hanging wearily. He breathed a shaky sigh, his brown eyes rimmed red and shining with tears he was fighting back. "Hey, you..." he began, his voice a fragile thread. "Can I... can I sleep in your bed? Just for tonight?" His pleading look betrayed a raw vulnerability, crumbling his usual sunny composure.
