Xaoi Shing's POV
After done eating dinner with uncle, I started to prepare the food needed for the puppy incase he wakes up.
I took the most expensive dog food that the clinic had and reheat the milk in the oven.
When I'm done. I carefully carried it inside my uncle's office. I even troubled my uncle in opening the door since both if my hands are full.
""Ah, you're finally awake. I thought it will take some time for you to wake up since your body is too weak. Oh, are you hungry? Here, I brought some food for you to eat. I've selected the best dog food so that you will recover faster" I place the food near his paws.
"Go on. Go on, eat. Don't be shy. It's yummy. I know you will like it"
He looked confuse. Does he not like the food? Or does he not like the smell of it? But it's best quality of dog food and it's smells so nice. Maybe he's just shy.
(Hehe so cute)
I'm having a great time when suddenly my uncle called me out.
"Shing, come hear for a minute" a voice shouted.
"Yes, uncle, I'll be there in a minute"
"Make it quick I need your assistance"
"Yes" he said then he faced at me again.
"I'll be back okay? And when I get back make sure you already finished your food okay?" then I left.
"What is it uncle?"
"Here hold this for a minute. I need to get my tools"
He handed some kind of bottles.
A minute later, he came back with his complete tools.
"Uncle, what is that bottles?"
"Oh this? It's a new product for immune system"
"And what's the purpose of your tools?"
"I'm going to check this new medicine"
"Oh. Amh uncle can I take the puppy home?"
"What?"
"I want to take home the puppy. It looks like it doesn't have owner anyway so I'm doing to adopt him"
"Are you serious?"
"Yes"
"Okay"
"You won't get mad?"
"Does it matter?"
"...."
"Hayyss, I won't let you take him home for now. He's still recuperating."
"Yes"
"I will tell you when you can take him"
"Yes, thank you uncle"
"Just don't tell your mother that I give you permission okay? She'll kill me"
"Promise"
....
(A week later)
"Hi puppy I'm taking you home now. Uncle already told that you're fine now. And he also told me that it's safe for you to travel. Aren't you happy?"
"Grrrr"
"Oh don't be like that. I'm sure you'll gonna like it"
I put him in the kennel and started to walk out the clinic.
"Uncle I'm going home, thank you so much"
"Yeah, take care on your way"
"Yes, bye"
I used to walk home but since I'm carrying the puppy I took a cab instead. Uncle reminded me not to expose the puppy outside because it may harm his lungs if he ever inhale some unwanted dirt.
...
When we went inside my apartment, I quickly unlock the kennel to let the puppy out.
"Welcome home, puppy. This is my humble home. It don't have much things but see? It spacious enough for you to play. Do you like it?"
He slowly walk out the kennel. Observing the surroundings. It must be new to him.
" Oh I almost forgot" I took the box out of my bag at then I open it infront of him.
"Surprise! This is a welcoming gift from me. Since starting from now you'll be my partner for life. It's nice isn't it?"
I happily took the collar out the box and place in into his neck. It took me several days to think of his name that I even thought of naming him as my junior, 'Shing Jr.' but it's too corney. I don't want him to feel awkward about taking my name. That's why I decided to name him 'Soffee'. It might sound too girly but him suits him perfectly.
He stared at me with his annoyed look but I doesn't matter since I'm used to it. Maybe he's just happy and he doesn't know how to show it. He's shy.
"And I also bought you your very own bed and toys so that you won't feel bored when I'm not home. You see I'm still a student and most of my time spends at school but don't worry I still going to take care of you and spend time with you"
I spend the rest of my day playing with Soffee even though he don't even have a plan on playing with me or with his toys.
