Description
Valentine's Day was coming and William still wasn't sure of how he was going to tell Kami Lin how he much he cared for her. Oh yes, he could send her the usual flowery Valentine, but that was what everyone else did, but he wanted to do something very special and very different. That would surely impress her. Maybe a romantic balloon ride at sunset, but then was she afraid of heights? He knew she was very sensitive, after all the car wash caused her to lose a great amount of her beautiful soft fur and he didn't want to do that to her again as there was still a lot of winter left! Diamond collars were nice but so ostentageous and lacked that spectacular surprise appeal. William's mind swirled around and around with all kinds of ideas. This wasn't going to be easy! The next day dawned sunny, crisp and clear and William decided to clear his head by taking a walk. Maybe some fresh air would net him some new ideas. As he strolled along he met Miss Whitney, a wise old Corgi who just might have his solution. "How are you doing this fine day," she asked? William felt comfortable talking with her and explained his predicament. Miss Whitney thought for a while and then suggested that William hide in a Valentine Heart box and pop out when Kami came to the door. William thought that sounded like fun but was still not sure that that was what would win Kami Lin over and make her his. William thanked her for her suggestion, wished her a great day and continued on his walk. Being out in the winter sunshine was very pleasant and William headed over to see Miss Becky. Maybe she could help, he knew she wrote that column, "Dear Miss Becky". William found her hard at work on her column but ever open to a short bone break and a visit with a friend. As a trusted confidant William related his dilemma to Miss Becky. Knowing Kami, Becky suggested a nice selection of meaty bones tied with a big red bow and a card saying "I'd give my last bone for you!" William could see how that might please Kami but was still not enthused with any of the ideas yet. He knew Miss Becky was busy so he took his leave thanking her and wishing her well. William resumed his walk and saw Caesar up ahead. He knew his reputation with the ladies was anything but loving and gentle. He was a real cad when it came to love. William crossed over to the other side of the street hurrying by as Caesar argued with one of his neighbor felines. You never knew what kind of a mood he was in. Best to just keep on walking. Maybe he would stop in and see Sebastian; he was a good fellow and might have a worthy solution to his problem. As William approached Sebastian's' he could hear music. Sebastian was really a good vocalist. Sebastian welcomed him in and offered drinks and a platter of puperoni and bacostrips. Sebastian welcomed the company and rattled on about his new venture in a Grooming Shop Quartet. William found it hard to get a word in edgewise. Sebastian was a good-hearted fellow but oh doggie, could he talk! Finally there was a break in the conversation and William put forth his problem. "A rose and a song!" declared Sebastian enthusiastically. "That will win her heart," said Sebastian.
