“You’re supposed to save me from the big bad wolf.” Wolf gave me that look — the one that said he’d do anything for me, even if it meant wearing a costume he hated.

I whispered to Nora. “What's a T or D?” “Short for Truth or Dare,” she said. The rules were simple. Answer the question… or do the dare. And if you refused, you finish one bottle of alcohol. “Let the game begin,” someone said, lifting a bottle with a grin.

Instead of replying, he dipped his hand in his pants pocket and pulled out a small zip-in plastic bag that contained some white powdery stuff. "Here," he said, putting it on my palm.

I raise the bottle of wine, toasting myself. Sundance sticks his head over the stall guard and noses for the wine again. I get up and get him a treat, which of course makes the others want treats too. I toss a treat in everyone’s food buckets and then give Sundance a hug goodnight. I lock up the barn and go back inside, feeling a bit lighter.

That trip must've been exhausting." I patted her head. "It was fine. Somebody has to make the money." I pulled the wrinkled travel allowance from my pocket and set it on the coffee table.
