Chapter 4: Dad Talk
Kodi watched as Kirby ran of with Snowy into the twilight forest. In that moment, as the sun shone on his back, he felt its warmth radiate through him. He suddenly felt a sudden lust for Dusty. Emotion filled him and for the first time, he felt the feeling of true love.
As Jenna went off to Rosy that night, Kodi decided he wouldn't go to the boiler room just yet, he would go and see his father. He started making the walk to the boat. His paws softly padding through the snow. It was a quiet night, not a cloud in the sky and not a sound could be heard as he walked to Balto's boat. The foreshadow off the massive boat loomed into view as he got closer and closer. As the smaller details of the structure became more clearer, Kodi approached the entrance to the ship.
"Dad?" he called out into the dark, empty interior of the ship.
"Kodi, is that you?" replied Balto. "What the hell are you doing over here?"
"I came to talk to you" said Kodi. "Its... well, its about Dusty" he said in a shy tone.
"Ooooh" said Balto is a playful tone. "Decided to give up on the solo run then?"
"Dad..." replied Kodi in an annoyed tone. "Dusty is my friend and ever since she broke up with Ralph I have had strange Feelings."
"So you came to me for girl talk?" said Balto is a mocking but also interested tone.
"Kinda, yeah" replied Balto.
"Well, your mother was always a beautiful dog and i used to never think i would stand any sort of a chance with her, but look at us now. I did something for Jenna that changed her life. Maybe in order to win her heart, you need to perform a feat somewhat similar."
"Whats that suppose to mean?" asked Kodi.
"It means go away and we will talk later" said Balto. "I'm tired and I can't offer my best advice when I'm tired."
"Ok" replied Kodi, obviously dissapointed. With that he strolled off into the darkness of the night.
