The narrator wakes up in the middle of the night to find that he has been woken up by a howling wolf. The wolves are late, so the narrator asks them to come and hang out with him. They refuse, saying that they have to do something else. The narrator asks if he has hung out with wolves too often since the wolf attack, and the wolves say that he is not dangerous, but that it could be dangerous. He says that now, foxes are taking the wolves' side, and that he would like to know more about them.
