"Tell us one thing about your childhood, Shumai!" Kokichi yelled.
"Wha-? I, uh, don't have a very interesting childhood?" Shuichi replied, looking away. "Of course you do! Everything about you is interesting!" Kaito said with a thumbs up. His compliment made Shuichi's face go red, making the other 2 laugh. "Well..." Shuichi started.

"I had a small, black dog when I was younger. Since my parents left me and my uncle was usually busy with work, he got me a cat. Her name was Rosy. We were best pals. I would take her everywhere, and she would follow willingly. Of course, until one day.."
He paused and took a deep breathe, confusing the astronaut and leader. "I...She...G-Got hit by a car..in front of me....and I mean right in front of me. I held her i-in my arms u-u-until she-she-" He didn't realized he was crying until Kaito rubbed his thumb under his eye. "H-huh...?" Kokichi clung to his side as a hug, which Kaito joined. "I-It's f-f-fine, I-"

"Shh." Kokichi mumbled, putting his finger to his lips slowly. Shuichi nodded and looked down to his lap. Kokichi then suddenly got an idea. He looked at Kaito, a sparkle in his eyes. Kaito suddenly got it, and nodded. They managed to get Shuichi asleep, praising him and comforting him until he did fall asleep. The two got up and went on their mission.

Shuichi woke up to a loud noise. Very high pitched. He let out a quiet groan and shifted a little. Then, he felt something wet on his face. His eyes shot open, and he saw a small, black, fluffy dog on top of him, crazily licking his face. "Aaaah!!" Shuichi yelped, putting his hands around the dog and giggling as it rapidly licked him. Kaito and Kokichi plopped down on different sides of the couch and giggled.

"Oh, you two!!" Shuichi yelled with a giggle as he held the excited dog in his arms. Kokichi smiled and Kaito and him began petting the dog as well. Shuichi nuzzled the dog as tears came to his eyes. "She looks just like Rosy d-did..." His voice cracked as a tear fell. The mid-height boy laid his hand on the dogs back and wiped away a tear, although another fell right after. Kaito picked up the dog and placed her on the other side of the couch and hugged Shuichi, Kokichi joining. "Th-thank yo-u..." Shuichi sobbed, kissing Kaito and then Kokichi's cheeks.

Shuichi's hands rested on their backs as they held him. Then, Kokichi went up to get blankets. Kaito went to get snacks. "M-Movies?" Shuichi asked, "Netflix! TV drama!" Kokichi yelled from the closet in the hall way. Shuichi nodded and picked up the extreme fluff ball next to him, placing her in his lap, "What sh-should we name h-her?" Shuichi yelled. "Uhh..." Kokichi and Kaito didn't reply.
