Bailey sensed the tension in the room and felt torn between her two favorite humans. Her ears perked up each time Katie sighed, and she nuzzled closer to offer comfort.

Whining softly, she looked up at Katie with large, concerned eyes, wishing she could somehow ease the discord that had settled like a dark cloud over their home.
