Here Comes the Sun

At the end of one of the worst weeks we can imagine, the sun came out today.
Out for a spin with Cocoa, we ran down the sidewalk and she chased breathlessly on her leash. It felt like flying a kite.
Teenagers were playing handball on the courts behind our building and girls in uniform skirts were walking home together.
We tried to steer Co away from foul smelling and stained patches of pavement, but then we saw that she doesn't mind at all. She just likes to smell, no judgments.
When we came inside our vision blurred, and it took time to adjust to the darker light.
