我们出去迎接这位小客人。
还没走到孩子面前,就听到背后传来一个声音。
我转过身来,看见科尔比冲下台阶,直奔小男孩。
一定是我们太匆忙,没关好门。
我屏住了呼吸,科尔比这么激动,肯定会吓着卡莱布——甚至会把他撞翻在地。
哦,不!
我想。
我们第一次见面怎么就这样啊!
卡莱布肯定会很害怕,不愿跟我们一起进屋,整件事情就要化为泡影了。
在我们拦住科尔比之前,她已经冲到卡莱布面前了。
她蹦跳着奔向他,开始欢喜地舔他的脸。
同时,这个可爱的小男孩抱住狗的脖子,向我们转过头,欣喜若狂地叫起来:“这是给我的狗吗?”
我和丈夫站在那里,相互对望了一下,笑了。
那一刻,我们的紧张感跑到了九霄云外,心想,一切都会如愿的。
卡莱布原本只会和我们待几个月,但是八年半之后,他仍和我们生活在一起。
是的,我们收养了卡莱布。
他成了我们的儿子,还有科尔比……哦,她高兴极了,她最终成了卡莱布的狗。
