Old Smeller: A Short Story

As they take the dog on a leash down to the E-room, it wags its tail and trembles in fear. Its excited for the attention, but at the same time is in fear of what he's being led to. All the dogs stop barking as they lead him down the isle. They know what's going on. One of their fellow friends is going to die, and they may be next. They place the dog on an old blanket on the concrete floor and shave off a patch of fur on his leg. The dog starts to tremble more. A tourniquet is wrapped slowly around his leg and a syringe of cool blue liquid death enters his body making his eyelids grow heavy and eventually falling limp in the arms of the employee. His heartbeat slowly dissapates and then stops. This, unfortunately, is a regular occurence in animal shelters today.

One night a young girl named Lily Foster is left alone for the night in her very large country house, while her parents drove out of town for a party. This was fine with Lily especially since she had her faithful dog, Scout, and her cell phone. Finally, her parents said, ‘’Be safe and don’t go outside.’’ Lily gave them a hug and said, ‘’Of course and have fun!’’ Once her parents drove off in their car, she made herself something to eat and sat down at the kitchen table.

The room was musty and dimly lit. A heavy curtain was drawn across the only window, allowing only a slight and pathetic slant of balmy sunlight to slip in. Faintly, the air tasted of dog urine and stray fur—a fusty undertone hovering beneath ghostly.

The others had all dashed away to the woods but there was still Lennie, who couldn’t find a good hiding place to stay in. He finally heard George say “come out, come out, wherever you are!” Lennie panicked until he saw a brown, beat up, little shack in the corner of his eye and began to flee to the direction of it. To Lennie’s luck, there was no presence of life in the room. He slightly peeked in, looking into the dark-filled room. As Lennie opened the door, it made a big “screeching sound” and heard George call “who’s there?” He quickly went inside and closed the door, falling onto his knees. Lennie had always been scared of the dark. Especially when no one was there. The room began to smell like burned bark with mold going across the room. Lennie had to squat down in order to fit perfectly without touching anything that would drop and him give up his hiding spot. There was no noise made now. The light visible through the crack in the roof began to fade. The sound of a whisper now seemed like a scream. After the countless hours staying inside the shack, his neck began to cramp up and no one seemed to notice that he was in this small house. He wanted someone to notice him in this beat-up shack. Lennie scrutinized if he should just sneak out of the shack and be better off with the other kids rather than be left alone in the dark, spooky house. He also wondered if all the other kids were tagged and captured and he was left alone to be

The family worked together to put away their belongings and they stood hand and hand and they took a breath of fresh air. Beneatha went first to her room to put away her stuff then Ruth and Walter went next and Travis left to go hunt for his new room. They all left until Mama was left there alone looking out the big window. Mama gingerly stepped to the window and put her plant down smiling in thought. When the door bell rung she jumped and went to the door. At the door was a white woman and when the door opened and saw mama she flinched and said “Hello, I’m your neighbor it’s nice to meet you.” She said “I’m Susan it’s nice to meet you.” She said this slowly, deliberately like she’s talking to a foreign person and Susan put out her hand and mama did not reach for it her face was just a blank stare.

Sizzle Sizzle. “What is that Glorious Smell” says Kevin. He rushes out of his bed following the smell like a dog chasing a bone. “ This smells great” says Kevin as he walked into the kitchen to see his wife cooking breakfast. He chows down the food so fast that he gets a stomach cramp as he gets up. As Kevin walks back to his room, he remembers what had happened to him a few weeks earlier. Kevin and his team had lost in the conference finals of the NBA Playoffs. The whole nation had hope they would win the NBA Championship, but that standard didn’t last for long. Kevin wiped away the memory and got dressed for basketball camp that they had for the Oklahoma Thunder. Then a thought came to his mind, the Golden State Warriors had just won the NBA championship, Kevin had never won a NBA championship, this could be his chance but he didn’t have time to think about it any longer or he would be late.
