    Summary

    “Human book recommends relaxing bedtime routine. Listen to soothing music, sleep in a cool, dark quiet room. Stick to regular schedule.” Rocky recites what he read. “Schedule is good, room is dark and quiet. Soothing music, question?”

    “Not a bad idea,” Grace stretches his legs a little. “I’ve shown you lots of music. You remember the soothing ones. Why don’t you sing for me?” He asks, jokingly.

    “Good good good!” Rocky chirps excitedly, wiggling around inside his ball. “Yes, Rocky will sing. Grace will listen. Grace will sleep easily.”

    Summary

    Yearning is Washford's very nature. But yearning for Drysdale brings all too bitter memories to the fore: the sting of cruel disregard; the painful memory of pale mildew.

    Thoughts of Drysdale offer no escape—only continual, cyclical torment.

    And so Washford yearns for his owner, instead.
