Zak
DECEMBER 24TH, 1997
“Again with this shit?” Dallas shouted from somewhere in their new
apartment.
The rest of his tirade was blessedly muffled. Was this what it was
like to have insulation? Bliss.
A door slammed down the hall before he appeared at the threshold of her
room, the mutilated carcass of a leather shoe dangling from his finger. “I
didn’t sign up for a fifth roommate, Zak. Train your mutt before I donate
her to a coat factory.”

The mutt in question, Snickerdoodle, compacted her fifty-pound-andcounting frame as small as possible and wedged herself under Zak’s desk. A
fluffy maize tail poked out through the side, where further incriminating
scratches and punctures marred the wood. The vet suspected Snickerdoodle
was a retriever and collie mix, but still, their household’s consensus was
that she was part feather duster, part beaver.
Zak grinned, the back of a ballpoint pen tucked between her teeth. Dallas
may talk a big game, but she had come home to find her dog curled up with
him on the couch more than once. White-dipped muzzle resting on his chest
as they napped, snored, and drooled together.
“Or you could remember to shut your door.”
His eyes narrowed. “These were my favorite shoes.”
“They were your only shoes.”
“Maybe you would have a little more sympathy if Shredder there
destroyed your favorite pair next time.”
She closed the cover of her notebook and set her pen on top of it. “Are
you threatening me?”
“Not at all.” He stalked to her closet and opened the bi-fold doors,
perusing the bins on the top shelf where she stored her heels. “Just sayin’. It
would be a shame…”
The truth was, Snickerdoodle had already demolished a few pairs. Hence
why the survivors were now neatly tucked out of reach when Zak had never
been lauded for her organization. The first time she walked in to find a
fashion casualty, Zak had run through the dictionary of every foul word she
knew, but she could only be so angry with a pair of big, brown eyes staring
up at her and a wagging tail thumping against the carpet.
Plagiarizing her mother’s vocabulary, she had taken to calling
Snickerdoodle her “happy accident.” She never intended to own a pet, not
then and maybe not ever. But two days before their move-out date, a
neighbor had knocked on the door to their old apartment with the pup on a
leash, a baby propped on her hip, and another on the way.
Zak had never met the woman before, but everyone in the building knew
her voice. Half the police calls there had been for her unit. Noise complaints
about the screaming.
Though Zak had been in no position to take care of an animal herself, she
couldn’t help but wonder: Who will this lady’s husband slap around now
that she’s finally leaving him?
So now Zak had a dog, and her roommates all had holes in their socks,
hair on their black clothing, and chew marks on their door jambs.
