Al was away, so Jake was caring for Ai’s pet, Bunny Jake had not
listened carefully to Al’s instruction. That was disrespectful.
Now Jake wondered unhappily, “Did Al tell me to let Bunny
go out? That seems unreasonable. What if Bunny disappears? That would be
unhelpful.”
“Did Al tell me to wash Bunny? That seems unlikely. I
must care for Bunny correctly, not incorrectly!”
Then Jake found a note from Al. It said, “Let Bunny out of her
cage, but keep her inside. Wash her veggies because unwashed veggies make
her sick.”
Jake said, “I’ll listen carefully from now on.”
