Chapter 35
King Tut was ready to pounce again. In the position signaling playful intentions—kneeling low on outstretched front legs, but with elevated hind legs and tail—he eagerly awaited the split second where he could lick the cheek in front of him. Zachary Fellini, lying in the grass on his stomach, hid his face in his arms. He peeked out when least expected and King Tut dove for him again, hoping to sneak a kiss on his cheek before his face was hidden again. Zachary rewarded King Tut's agility skills by rolling on his back. Blinded by the licks, Zachary twisted his head from side-to-side, giggling, unable to escape the barrage of doggie kisses. King Tut's tail continued wagging as he won the game.
