Opal : [narrating] I swept the floor real slow that day. I wanted to keep Otis company. I didn't want him to be lonely. Sometimes it seemed to me like everybody in the whole world was lonely.
Sweetie Pie Thomas : [she sucks on a lozenge, then spits it out] Yuck. That tastes bad. That tastes like not having a dog.
Opal : I wondered if my mama - wherever she was - was lonely for me. Thinking about her was the same as the hole you keep feeling with your tongue after you lose a tooth. Time after time, my mind kept on going to that empty spot. The spot where I felt like she should be.

Sweetie Pie Thomas : [amazed at the fact Otis calmed the animals down] I'm gonna go tell my ma about what I seen. That man's magic. He's a magic man. Bye, Magic Man. Bye, Opal.
