Juliet drove the supposedly Edwin to school. The real Edwin ran to his room. In a mirrow he saw himself: a human on all fours, wearing just pajama pants and a collar, unable to stand up and every spoken word just sounded like dog noises to others.
"Rover, come here boy!" Hector called for the family pet, but Edwin didn't respond. He sat in his room or rather the room that belonged to Edwin.
After some minuted, Hector found the supposedly dog in his son's room. "There you are. Come here, we will get you walked", he said. Edwin didn't move. He didn't want to go outside, half-naked on leash, even when everyone belived he was a dog. His dad came closer, just grabbed him on the collar and attashed a leash on it. "Better. Now we will go outside." He hesitated. "A dog wearing pants is just silly. Don't you think?" Edwins heart skipped a beat. "Edwin said this is a game, but how are you supposed to do your business, when you wear this?" Still unable to run away, Edwin had to endure, how his physically stronger dad pulled of his pants and underwear, leaving him stark-naked. "Feeling better, Rover?", his dad asked, really thinking that the dog on the leash he was holding, appreciated that move.
"Let's go. I have work to do." Totally embarrassed Edwin walk behind Hector. His face red of shame. He said to himself all the time: "No one knows it's me, no one knows it's me" and tried to just let it happen. Shortly after they leaved the house, Edwin had to admit it was kind of liberating being that naked in public, the dirty street under his hands and feet, the already warm air on his bare skin. As creepy and miserable his situation was, maybe there also was something good.
