Chapter 39 A Request

After finally soothing Harriet, Delbert couldn’t resist picking her up and leaving the mountains.

Seeing Tucker wanting to follow, Delbert stopped it with a whistle.

Tucker sat on the ground and hung its head in dejection.

Unable to bear leaving it behind, Harriet tugged at Delbert’s sleeve and pleaded, “Tucker is lonely. Can we take him home?”

“No!” Delbert rejected it flatly, worried that Tucker might cause trouble at home.

Harriet crinkled her nose and looked at him with tearful eyes.

“You’re bad. You promised me, but you didn’t listen to me. Ahhh… I hate you.”

Harriet’s loud sobs resumed, prompting Delbert to relent.

“Alright, we’ll take him back.”

Harriet grinned with satisfaction, leaving Delbert feeling helpless.
