That morning, Aria and I bustled around the apartment, making final preparations for the dog wash fundraiser. After a week of planning, the number of likes on Aria’s posts hinted at there being a massive turn out.
“Okay, Aria, do we have enough shampoo and towels?” I called out from the kitchen.
Aria emerged from the bathroom, her hands full of bags of dog shampoo. “Check and check! The shampoo’s all lined up, and the towels are piled high in the car. We’re good to go, Evie.”
I let out a relieved sigh. “Great. I can’t believe it’s finally happening.”
Aria grinned, her eyes sparkling. “It’s going to be amazing, Evie. Just imagine all those happy doggies getting pampered.”
As we exchanged a high–five, I felt a surge of gratitude for all the effort the others. had put in. Aside from being a media stunt, a dog wash seemed like a genuine way to get the community together. With everything in place, we grabbed our coats and headed out the door, ready to meet up with Timothy and Lucas at the park.
As we reached the park, the scene was nothing short of heartwarming. Pet owners had lined up early with their dogs, and volunteers were buzzing around, setting up washing stations and getting
ready for the day ahead. I couldn’t help but smile as I took in the colorful banners and the joyful atmosphere.
“Evie! Aria!” Timothy’s voice called out, and we turned to see him and Lucas waving us over. “Hey, guys!” Aria shouted back.
We joined the guys, and Lucas gave us a thumbs–up. “After they get those banners up, we’ll be ready to roll!”
Aria’s social media campaign had done wonders. The park was packed with people, pet–owners, curious wanderers, and local news stations alike. A reporter stood just a few feet away, microphone raised to her lips as she read her script live to the
camera.
After everything was set up, we split up into teams, each taking charge of a

As the first pet owner and their dog approached, I grabbed a hose and winked at Timothy. “Ready to get a little wet and wild?”
Timothy laughed, picking up a bucket of shampoo. “Let’s do this!”
The day quickly turned into a whirlwind of soap suds, wagging tails, and cheerful chatter, As dogs of all sizes and breeds lined up for their spa treatment, we got completely soaked and covered in suds.
At one point, I turned to Timothy, both of us soaked from head to toe. “I thought we were washing the dogs, not each other!”
