After placing his hand at the digital scanner and keying in the password, the door to Mew's private garage opened. Row by row, the panel lights switched on, highlighting the cars that Mew had collected over the years.

"Woah is that the legendary Bugatti Chiron?! Isn't it supposed to be released only next year? And is that the Ford GT?! And is that the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera?! I always wanted one!"  Gulf ran around the huge garage excitedly, awed at the i...

"Woah is that the legendary Bugatti Chiron?! Isn't it supposed to be released only next year? And is that the Ford GT?! And is that the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera?! I always wanted one!" Gulf ran around the huge garage excitedly, awed at the impressive line-up of cars.

His face lit up, like a kid who entered a toy store. He ran around the garage, now and then hesitantly touching the hood of a car before squealing in delight.

Mew's lips quirked upwards in a smile at the sight. "Pick one. You can drive it to the clinic."

"Really?!" Gulf bounded towards him excitedly, his eyes twinkling." Thank you so much!" He hugged Mew from behind since Mew was still holding Chopper to his chest.

Suddenly, Gulf broke off the hug and stepped back, looking at Mew cagily.

"You better not be giving me false hope." He warned Mew sternly, waving his index finger at Mew.

Mew chuckled, amused at Gulf's reaction.

Such a feisty little kitten.

"Hey! Don't laugh at me!" He pouted, jutting out his lower lip.

"Really. Go pick one."

Gulf glanced at Mew warily before lighting up again. "Okay!"

He rushed to the Lamborghini Aventador SVJRoadster.

"This one!"

Going into his small office at his car garage, Mew fished out the car key from his drawer that was amongst the other car keys.

"Here." Mew tossed him the car key. Gulf caught it gleefully, unlocking the door. Clambering into the driver's seat, he yelled for Mew. "Hurry up! Let's go!"

Mew shook his head, a smile tugging his lips. He yelled back, "alright!"

"We have reached."

Gulf shook Mew's shoulder gently, waking him up from his slumber.

"I parked the car at my own parking lot where there are CCTV cameras which would surround the car at all corners. So as to prevent anyone from destroying your car." He said sheepishly, breaking Mew's train of thought.

"Thank you," Mew smiled at him before stretching in his seat. "Come on. Let's go." Gulf said, getting out of the car before walking over to Mew's side, opening the door.

"What a gentleman." Mew teased, stepping out of the car carefully with Chopper sleeping peacefully in his arms.

"I did it for Chopper. This way, you would not have to move unnecessarily and jolt Chopper, worsening his injury." Gulf said indignantly, closing the door before locking the car.

But his cheeks were clearly dusted pink.

"Then how come you are flustered?"

"I-I don't know!" Gulf slipped away, dashing to a door not far from the car. Mew guessed that the door should be leading to one of the lifts of the clinic.

"Wait up Gulf! Don't leave me behind." Mew shouted, walking after him. He would have ran after Gulf but he didn't want to worsen Chopper's injury.

Gulf peeked out from the door, blushing as he squeaked out. "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up!"
