Jeremy hurried inside, heading straight for the freezer. He grabbed a bag of sausages, hoping the enticing smell might coax the dog away. Wrapping his hand in a thick blanket to shield himself from potential bites, he moved swiftly to the kitchen, his resolve hardening with each step.
He ignited the grill, the sausages sizzling as they hit the hot surface. The savory aroma quickly filled the air, warming the room and Jeremy’s spirits. He carefully plated the sausages and stepped into the frigid night, braving the elements with renewed determination.
