He Buried Our Daughter For Her Dog

Synopsis

The earthquake hit without warning. When the building gave way, a concrete slab came crashing down, separating my daughter from a tiny Pomeranian on the other side. My husband’s childhood sweetheart, Lisa Hutchinson, was sobbing hysterically. “That’s Phyllis’s dog. She loved it more than her life before she passed!” I was desperate, pleading with my husband, Hadley Cross, to save our daughter first. But he only crouched beside the rubble, stroking the trembling dog. His throat tightened. After a long silence, he finally whispered, “If Phyllis knew her dog had died, she wouldn’t be at peace over there.”
