"Wow look at him! He doesn't bite my fingers off anymore!"

Lina smiled at two couple beside her. With their new behaving Rottweilers waging his tail with his two owners. The man takes out his wallet and ready to pay her for her work.

He pays only five hundred which half of the current price she expected, leaving her with a solemn look.

"Excuse me Sir, but it's actually a thousand and five hundred extra!" she frowned and crossed her arms.

"I thought it was only five hundred!" he furrowed his eyebrows even more.

"Look, Mister, I took care of that dog within these ten days instead you said you'll fetch it only five days and my form said it's a hundred a day, now you double another five days and more feeding. It took me a while to buy more food for it. Plus, the hell training for it. There's also a lot of customers who need my help for their pets and I had to all focus on yours just because of you delay to fetch it. " Lina challenged him to make him pay his fee than just only half of it. The wife placed her hand on his husband's shoulder to calm his nerves.

"Honey, she's right... I think you give her what she wants and look our pet has improved!" His wife whispered softly on his ear, making him surrender and give out the payment.

"I apologized Miss.." the man grumbled and handed it to the girl.

Lina nodded and smiled triumphantly. She waved at them as they leave on her pet shop with their now behaved dog.

After they left, she sighed in relief and frowned. They're spoiling the dog too much and this makes it lack in disciplining, it doesn't only effect the dog but other people around him.

A black cat purred around her legs, she picked her up on her arms and massaged the back of her ears.

'Oh sweetie, time for breakfast!' Lina prepared her food and mixed it with some milk to satisfy her taste.

Chelsea meowed happily and digged in.

While watching the cat eats, the bell chimed from the entrance of her shop, signaling the customer that has arrived.

A man around his twenties with strange clothing style and hair which is not common around here.

She welcomed him with a cheeky smile that makes her cracks her face from too much smiling. But oh well, it's what she do everyday. It wasn't that she's happy to get along with. It was just she's happened to be alone sometimes at home.

She walks up to the man who seemed looking around the shop and the pets. And smiled lightly, "Is there anything you need Sir?".

"Ah yes, if my guess is right..are you Mrs. Adelina Scarlett?" his attention brought through a feminine voice ranged his ears and faced her with a slight smile.

"That's me." the man's face brightened up and begins to shake her hands as he grins.

"Great, My name is Harley, nice to meet you, Adelina!" he introduced himself to her.

"Lina in short is fine. Is there something you need?" she asked him in confusion.

"Oh yeah, I've heard you're a great trainer." he seemed to be amused at her.

"My partners and I have a misbehaving pet, and we heard that you could tame any animal. We would like it if you could tame ours." he requested.

Lina nodded and take a pad from her apron. "May I ask what type of animal you had?"

"Oh that won't be necessary." Harley laughed.

Lina couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and lowers the pad she's holding.

"And why is that?" She needs to know which animal so she could charge him depends on what animal he had.

Harley cleared his throat, "My colleagues and I already know how much to pay you for just complying, here." he pulls out his check and handed to her.

"But sir, I'm serious what if you would pay too much and it won't be fair–why the heck are paying for one million pesos?" she gasped and almost drop the check with the unexpected amount.

She widened her eyes in disbelief, making her hands tremble from holding the check. This is insane, absolutely insane.

"S-sir, you can't pay t-this..much!!!" She squeeked. This is must a joke, she thought. For his plain appearance, like this, how could he carry this cash out and throw her like that?

Harley chuckled at her reaction and begins to exit of her store as he explains, "I'll fetch you around this six pm, and bring you to the mansion. Thanks a lot Lina!"

Her face falls, and both of her palms clasped her hairs in frustration, urging her to cry mentally but she couldn't avoid the responsibility that had thrown to her.

Still, she was frozen the same place where she stood almost in a half hour with a check on her palms.

Everything around her feels so surreal.

One million.

Fuck.
