One rainy evening, a terrible storm flooded the streets. Water rose around the barrel. Chaves sat inside, shivering, clutching Pé de Pano, who was whining in fear. The boy was scared, but he held the dog tighter and whispered, "It's okay. We're okay."
Chaves, stomach growling, would look at the apple, then at Quico's smug face. He'd open his mouth to concede, but then Professor Girafales, the kindly schoolteacher who was secretly in love with Dona Florinda, would walk by. "Children, respect and friendship are the most important lessons," he'd say, tapping his chalk-dusted hand on the wall. Quico would huff and eat the apple himself.
From that day on, the dog never left. Chaves named him "Pé de Pano" (Ragfoot). The dog slept curled against the barrel, keeping the boy warm at night. And something shifted in the neighborhood. Quico, despite himself, started sneaking the dog his leftover chicken bones. Don Ramón built a little wooden crate for it. Even Seu Madruga, when he thought no one was looking, filled a chipped bowl with water and placed it next to the barrel.
