Fire

I'm worried about my friend.

He bought his house a few months ago and while he was at work, night before last, it burned. No one was hurt. The new dog is fine. The house is not. 

I talked to him a couple of times yesterday. The shock is starting to wear off now. He said that it feels like some kind of invasion. I think I understand what he means.

I told him that I knew that if it had been my house that burned down he would have been there in a heartbeat, doing whatever he could to help. I said that I didn't know what to do to help him. He laughed and told me he loved me.

He said he would call if he needed anything. So I wait. And worry. And pray. What else is there?
