Man and a goose form unlikely friendship

Steve Hartmen has a very odd relationship with a goose. They walk around the city park together, and he even named her Maria. When he tries to go home, she will fly after him or he will have to wait until she falls asleep so that he can leave. When i read this and saw this i thought it was super cute. I want goose now too that will follow me around and stuff...  But i would be really really sad if something happened to her or if she died.
