With a bag in his hand, Brian brought Carl and Goblin sustenance day after day. Suddenly, he heard the sound of barking in the early morning. Looking out of his window, he leaped out of bed. It was Goblin, standing on the porch, barking and appearing very displeased. As he opened the door, Goblin immediately sprinted toward him. Brian was aware that something had happened to his owner when the dog whimpered and trembled…
Brian faced difficulties in forming friendships. Police officer Gary attempted to assist him in connecting with his peers, but Brian had his own interests. Gary dedicated a great deal of effort to helping his son gain self-assurance, but the more he pushed, the more Brian resisted him.
Although the school was not far from their residence, Brian always had Gary chauffeur him there and back to prevent him from feeling insecure. During the wintertime, Brian would read in the library while awaiting his father. During the summertime, he would wait outside the school. Over time, Brian developed a close bond with Carl, a homeless man, and Goblin, his canine companion. He quickly established a relationship with the animals as he saw them on a daily basis.

Gary was astonished to discover that his son had become friends with a furry creature. Gary became furious when Brian revealed that Carl, the beggar on the street near the school, was the dog’s owner. Without a doubt, he did not want his son to be in the presence of the homeless individual.

“Listen, Brian, I want you to stay away from that man and his dog, alright?”, Gary said to Brian. And undoubtedly, “Carl’s alright and I adore Goblin!” Brian objected.
After that, the food inexplicably vanished from the house. Brian was taking it to give to Carl and Goblin. Gary was thrilled at the prospect of his son spending time with the dog. What bothered him was that the animal belonged to a stray.

Brian was roused a few days later by loud barking. He observed Goblin outside when he glanced out the window. He hurried towards him, sensing the dog’s distress. Brian kept inquiring about Carl’s whereabouts. Brian was apprehensive that something amiss had occurred to Carl. He brought Goblin to the station where his father worked. Brian had never walked so far independently before. Gary was astonished when he saw Brian at the police station with the dog by his side. Brian informed his father that Goblin came searching for him. Gary’s face reddened. “Carl was loitering near a school and he was warned off twice, so we apprehended him!” However, Brian wept that Carl didn’t do anything incorrect and he was not feeling well, and he requires assistance. He was a veteran who worked on the bomb squad and with sniffer dogs to unearth bombs. That’s why Goblin was so adept.
Gary felt sorry for himself after recognizing his negligence. He then resolved to do what his son had requested him to do. Gary searched for Carl’s sister and discovered she was yearning to find him. Then, Carl was taken to a mental health facility along with Goblin.
