Chapter 289 - Broken Leg Pt. 2

Back at the House of Buns, Dad set up an exercise pen in the living room. He wanted Abigail to still be part of the family, but protect her from being chased by her sometimes over exuberant bondmates, Enzo and Merlot. He placed the ex-pen so that part of it overlapped the window to let her see outside, and part of it against the wall so she could hide if she wanted. The other sides faced into the living room where she could see all that was going on.

After giving her some pain medication, Dad very gently set Abigail down inside the pen. “What is this?” Abigail wondered, as she looked around, “I’ve never had to live inside a pen here! I don’t like this!” Despite her broken leg, she thumped. Dad apologized and said, “I’m sorry baby. It’s for your own good.”

Enzo and Merlot came running over to see what the commotion was about. Enzo asked, “Why are you in jail?” Abigail said, “I don’t know. I guess because of my leg.” Enzo replied, “Maybe we can bust you out!” Enzo and Merlot stood up on their tippy toes and looked all around. Enzo reported, “Look like the only way out is over the wall.” Enzo went over to console her. He groomed her through the bars.

Abigail knew she was in no condition to jump the wall, so she resigned herself to staying inside the pen. To be honest, she really didn’t feel like hopping around much anyway, so it was OK – at least for now – and she had her own food tray and treat platter to herself again!
