Lily to the Rescue - W. Bruce Cameron
1
I was playing in the backyard with my girl, Maggie Rose, and my good friend Brewster.
Well, Maggie Rose and I were playing. Brewster was watching. Watching is something Brewster does a lot.
Napping is something he does even more.
Maggie Rose is my girl, and I am her dog. We were playing my favorite game in the entire world, which is Give-Lily-a-Treat. But Maggie Rose kept getting it wrong.
Play dead, Lily,
she told me. Play dead!
She had that treat clutched tight in her fist. I knew it was in there! Her whole hand smelled like chicken, and chicken is the best treat. No, maybe salmon. No, bacon … or peanut butter.… These are the sorts of things I think about a lot, but I never can make up my mind.
Probably the best treat of all is whichever one I’m about to eat, so I nibbled and licked at Maggie Rose’s fingers, trying to get to that chicken-smelling thing she was clutching so tightly.
Brewster lay next to us in the grass. Brewster is a lot older than I am, and a lot lazier. He and I often go to a place called Work, where I visit animals and he sleeps. Then we go Home, where I play with Maggie Rose and he sleeps. He was interested in the treat, too, but not interested enough to get up and do anything about it.
That’s how he is. I don’t understand it, but there are lots of things I don’t understand—like why Maggie Rose wasn’t giving me the treat! I licked her hand even harder, trying to get my tongue between her fingers.
No, Lily!
Maggie Rose told me.
Humans like that word: No.
I do not.
Maggie pushed me away a little. Play dead, Lily!
she told me.
I stared at her. She had that tone in her voice that she uses when she wants me to do a trick, like Sit or Down or Shake. But she wasn’t saying any of those words.
Still, when I do Sit or Down or Shake I get a treat sometimes. So I tried. I put my rump on the grass and looked eagerly at Maggie Rose.
She didn’t give me the treat. So I flopped down to put my belly in the grass. Treat now, right?
Maggie Rose did not seem to notice how well I was doing Down. So I jumped up to give her my paw. Everybody likes it when I do Shake. Maggie Rose couldn’t possibly resist and would give me chicken!
Except she didn’t.
Brewster let out a long sigh and rolled over so that he could rub his back in the soft grass. He wiggled a little and groaned as the warm sun touched his belly. He closed his eyes.
Good dog, Brewster!
Maggie Rose exclaimed. Good job playing dead!
