Needless to say, Park Chaeyoung turned out to be very dramatic and very clingy. Nayeon had gone to get the babies while Sana stayed behind to make brunch and wait for the Sons, and it was proving to be a nightmare to get their friend to let go of their pets. It started with Sana messaging her and informing Nayeon would go and get them, which was answered with an animated 'no'. Then the older woman arrived and got the door slammed on her face once the woman inside saw her. Now, under the threats of kicking the door in, Chaeyoung was holding both pets close and sobbing about their departure.

"C'mon, Chae. Just let me take them home."

"NO!"

"You can visit them again."

"No, they are mini versions of you and Sana and I'm keeping them."

"Look, I know they are great babies." Nayeon tried with her most patient voice. "But they are our babies. It's time they go home to us now."

"But you two have each other, and I'll be here alone after they are gone." The taller woman was sobbing again.

"Tell you what." Nayeon gets a brilliant idea. "How about Sana and I take you to the next adoption fair and you can get your own companion?"

"You promise?" Chaeyoung asks like a child.

"We will even pay for the adoption papers. But I have to take Zaki and Snowball with me now."

"Okay." The agreement was quiet and teary.

"Alright! Now come and give me a hug."

Nayeon opens her arms and her friend runs into them immediately. The couple feared this might happen, they knew how much their friend loved animals, hence their choice in guardian, but they also knew she just needed a girlfriend. Chaeyoung had dated a few years back, and only entertained little toys here and there, but all just for fun, and she was too affectionate of a person to not have someone to direct it to in her life. They agree to go to the next adoption fair, which will be taking place two weeks from there, according to Nayeon's calendar.

Once the korean arrived back home, she saw her sister's car parked out front, and she headed inside with a bounce in her step. Zaki and Snowball were fidgeting until Nayeon opened the bunny's cage and released the puppy's leash, then they just darted inside and started exploring each and every corner of the house like they hadn't been there for years, but they were very domestic animals, she understood their eagerness. Jihyo and Chaeyoung's voices were accompanied by Sana's giggles at the kitchen, so that's where she headed, giving her wife a kiss on her cheek before hugging the other two.

"How are you girls this morning?" The older sister asks as she takes a seat.

"We are fine. Sana was telling us how you got a rib cracked by a sheep." The younger sister informed.

"And how you both spent the night at the ER and missed your dinner reservations." The smallest one adds.

"In my defence, I did absolutely nothing to provoke that sheep, the farmer said so himself."

"That is actually true and I hadn't gotten to that part yet." Sana ponders. "But yeah, the farm owner called us the next morning asking how she was, and he said that one sheep kept attacking people unprovoked, so they were putting it down, but he was very worried about Yeonnie, since she took the blow unprepared."

"What do you mean unprepared?" Chaeyoung questions. "Nobody is really prepared for a sheep attack."

"You know when you see you are about to take a blow and kind of brace yourself to try and minimize the damage? Well, that sheep kind of came from the back and I was bending to pet another one." Nayeon explains. "So I got hit straight on and I wasn't even standing that firmly."
