Forum Thread:Princess the Pig – Update!

@fur-ever_homes_usa:

A bigthank youis in order. After @CocoaandNicole25 and NBA star Dominic Neelson shared her story, our phones haven’t stopped ringing and our inboxes are officially overflowing. We’re working our way through all the inquiries now, and this sudden surge of interest has us feeling very optimistic about Princess finally finding her forever home.

@CocoaandNicole25:

So happy to help! Princess deserves nothing less than a palace and a devoted staff. Fingers crossed.

@hoopdreams23:

WAIT.TheDominic Neelson?? From the Los Angeles Comets?

@fur-ever_homes_usa:

Yes—thatDominic Neelson.

@dogparkdrama:

Is this the same NBA guy whose shoes got, uh, marked by Cocoa?? From the other thread???

@CocoaandNicole25:

Unfortunately for my dignity, yes. Same guy. Different day. Princess remains innocent.

@fastbreakfan:

This forum has lore now and I love it.

@piglover77:

Not the pig uniting the community AND the NBA. Icon behavior.

@fur-ever_homes_usa:

We’ll continue to update everyone as we review applications. Thank you again for all the love being shown to Princess. She’s clearly already very adored, and we know her person is out there.

@drgarrettvet:

How exciting!!! I can’t wait to see where she lands.

Chapter Twenty-One

Dominic

“Look, I just need to order three dozen roses,” I mutter at my phone, frustrated, as the page buffers for the hundredth time. I hold the device up in the air, hoping and praying that maybe the slight elevation will change the locker room’s awful service.

“You played like fire tonight,” Marcus huffs, plopping down beside me. “I was so impressed. Must be because you’re in your home territory… Or maybe it’s because of dog girl.” He wiggles his eyebrows at me.

I ignore him, keeping my attention on the screen of my phone.Please, just process my payment.I don’t even care if it triple-chargesmy card at this point. I want Nicole to know that I’m thinking of her while I’m at my away game.

“Your fam is waiting outside for you.” Jayden gives me a nod. “I think they might come bursting in here if you don’t get it together and get out there.”

“Yeah, I know,” I grumble, my brow furrowing as the page once again stalls out. I shut my eyes and let out a sharp breath.

“Dude, what are you even trying to do?” Marcus starts laughing, tipping his head back to look at my screen.

“It’s just… It’s…”Ugh.“Flowers,” I groan. “For Nicole.” I don’t miss the looks Marcus and Jayden exchange.
