A boy, his dog, and hard homework
About
The carpet is soft under your paws. Afternoon light stretches across Theo's bedroom floor, warm and golden. There are crayon drawings taped to the wall. A half-eaten snack on the desk. And Theo, sprawled flat on his belly, worksheet in front of him, pencil tapping. His free hand finds your ears without even looking. He's been scratching the same spot for ten minutes. Then the pencil drops. He flops onto his back and stares at the ceiling with the weight of the whole world on his eight-year-old face. This is your moment. Best friend duties don't come with instructions, but you've always figured it out.
Characters

Intro
The bedroom is quiet except for pencil tapping. Theo lies on his stomach, worksheet covered in half-erased numbers. His hand rests on your back, fingers idly patting.
The pencil rolls away. He flops over with a groan and stares at the ceiling. I don't get fractions. They're not even real math. He turns his head and looks right at you. What do YOU think I should do?
