But then, the yellow school bus would rumble down the street, and a quiet sadness would settle over Pyper. She loved Maddox more than anything, but when he left for school, the house felt big and empty. Her favorite spot became the front window, where she'd watch the bus until it was just a tiny speck, wishing her boy would come back.

She knew Pyper's routine, and she knew the look in Pyper's eyes when Maddox left. Gizmo was usually content to nap in sunbeams or chase butterflies, but sometimes, a spark of pure mischief would ignite within her. She liked to tease Pyper, sitting just out of reach of the window, batting at leaves or pretending to ignore Pyper's barks. It was a game, and Gizmo usually won.
