Introduction

After spending two years in the army, Mac returns home to discover that the uncle that raised him had totally changed. It seems he has given up on caring for his property and everything that used to be important to him. He owed it to his uncle to get him back to where he once was.

Mac's Obligation

His obligation was to an uncle that had to drop his existing life and raise a kid that suddenly had no parents. He is also heartbroken by the fact that the girl he once loved is with someone else.

Mac's Inner Struggle

Mac had hoped that his uncle could help him sort out some of his anxiety since the war left him nearly emotionless and troubled. His return home seems rather dire until he has an encounter with a policewoman that insists he adopt the stray dog she found.

The Dog's Impact

He resists at first, but the dog is forced on him. Reluctantly he takes the dog, but the dog's affection opens his heart and everyone it has contact with.

The Shocking Revelation

Just when everything seems to be falling into place, the policewoman tells him something that rocks his very existence.
