A YOUNG LAD, about the age of ten, was seen aimlessly running through the street in the midst of the night, crying.

He accidentally let go of his dog's leash while taking it for a walk. Although the speed of the canine overpowered him, he still ran with all his strength, regardless of how thin and weak he was at that time.

His tears flowed with the cold breeze. They were both running so fast until one of them suddenly stopped - until one of them got hit by a vehicle. A dark red pool of the dog's blood puddled onto the road and was smudged onto the front of the car.

The driver, Clyde Harper, went out of the vehicle and saw a young lad hugging a dead golden retriever while sobbing, quietly. Worry was written on Clyde's face, not because he saw his son covered in blood, but because of the stain of red on the car's hood.

Because of that, at the age of ten, Chase Harper was forbidden to go outside of their house.
