Rufus’s Lack of Curiosity
As Mrs. Johnson offered treats and gentle pats, Karen studied Rufus closely. Although he remained polite and friendly, she noticed a surprising lack of excitement in his movements. Unlike his joyful energy around some visitors, he seemed subdued and indifferent, showing little curiosity or eagerness to leave with her. Considering Mrs. Johnson’s repeated visits and genuine affection, his reaction puzzled Karen even more. She couldn’t understand why Rufus showed no interest in going with someone so clearly willing to give him a loving home.

Tension Fills the Shelter
The shelter seemed to grow quieter and heavier as Karen observed Rufus’s behavior with Mrs. Johnson. She couldn’t shake the question: why would he resist leaving with someone so devoted? Exchanging questioning glances with Mike, both struggled to interpret his intentions. Every attempt to find answers seemed only to deepen the mystery, leaving them with more questions than clarity. Rufus’s selective behavior remained as puzzling as ever, filling the room with tension and anticipation as they tried to decipher what was truly going on in his mind.
