Staying at a local restaurant
She would sit and wait until practically midnight because the palace was open until 11 p.m. and they had no problem with her lingering if she sometimes ordered something to drink. They even brought the puppy water!
Closing shop
When the clock struck 11 p.m. and the restaurant closed, Lily slowly but steadily made her way back to the station, and the closer they went, the more agitated the puppy became. Whatever it was reacting to had to be still there…
All looking at the puppy
Even as the train’s arrival time approached, there were few passengers still at the station. However, the active puppy drew the attention of everyone in the room. Some even appeared to be upset at Lily for keeping this poor dog in a cage.
Releasing the puppy
Lily took a deep breath and slowly reopened the small cage door. The puppy wasted no time and ran towards the train tracks, jumping on it. Lily’s heart was pounding in her chest as she pursued the animal.
