Vongole, der fröhliche Retriever

by jeensay

Some short drabbles about Klavier and his brother's dog Vongole, with the first one set directly after (and dealing with the aftermath of) Kristoph's imprisonment. Exactly 100 words each, will probably be jumping in time after the first chapter. Some will be a bit sad, some not at all, and will have a bit of Apollo... maybe more, later on.

2. Chapter 2

He still missed his master.

Vongole would sit at the door every day at the exact same time – the time when Kristoph would usually come home after work.

No matter how hard Klavier tried, the dog wouldn't be moved at all, only retreating when the sun has long set and his master still hasn't returned. Even treats didn't work.

One day, Klavier gave up trying.

Another day he finds himself sitting crosslegged on the floor next to the dog, staring at the closed door, reliving old memories. Vongole hits him with his tail. Klavier draws him closer.

They wait together.
