Wesley assumed this was the end of the tour, as Zach had just asked him whether he had any questions or concerns. Now they were just standing here, as if both of them waited for something to happen. Wesley looked around, knowing he would be used to everything soon enough. Getting used the new environments themselves was never a problem.<br/><br/>Just as he wondered whether they'd mind if he went out for a smoke, Zach offered him a piece of chewing gum. Surprised Wesley took the offer, taking one piece. He didn't care what taste it would be. This saved him from breaking his non-smoking streak. "Thanks" he said gratefully to Zach, knowing that without this coincidence, he would have given in, only to feel guilty about it for the rest of the day.<br/><br/>As  someone else entered the clinic, Wesley looked up to see. It was her, Jenny, checking up on the situation. He gave her a nod as answer that everything was going good, as he was still not too keen on talking. Just as he wondered if she would leave or whether she came to ask or say anything else, he heard her suggestion, which was quite a good one.  He nodded again, but this time more enthusiastic. He looked at Zach, who asked him whether it sounded good for him. "Yes" he answered, with the slightest smile. It would be great to be busy with the dogs, so he could vent his nerves.<br/><br/>He wasn't sure whether either of them actually still wanted to say something or talk something over before leaving, but he decided to go anyway. He walked back to the dogs, remembering easily where they were and where their leases and such were placed.  Once back, and hearing the energetic barking, he began checking the check list to see which dogs hadn't been out for a walk yet. He was already looking forward to it, knowing that quite close to this animal shelter was a big park, with enough space to play around with the dogs and having them actually use their energy. It was always better to have them tired back into their cages, because he knew well enough that they'd otherwise start destroying things. And that was exactly the reason he had cats at home and not dogs.. His cats liked him, but they didn't care whether he came an hour sooner or later, unlike dogs which needed to go on a walk.
