Drew's POV:

"How is the pup, doc??" Ash quickly inquired and he was being anxious with his voice.

The vet told us that the puppy is safe and that it is a good thing that we brought it right away to them for medical attention. She told us that we just need to let it rest for two days and that it can be back to normal.

The puppy was given back to us and Ash and I only decided to bring it back with us.

"Hm~ Now this was unexpected, Drew~ I only hope Abigail will let us take care of it for the mean time???" Ash told me and he wiped a cloth on the windshield since it was already getting misty as the rain was getting stronger and we have driven on a different road going back since the roads are flooded.

Ash was holding the gray pup with bandages on its front legs and carressing it gently on his lap.

"Drew???" I was taken back to myself from my thoughts and I glanced at Ash steering the wheel and parked it back in the garage of Abigail's house.

"I hope they won't scold us, Ash~ Especially-" And we were caught with up a loud voice that greeted us from outside while we haven't even gotten out yet.

Dawn, Max, and Locket were the ones who escorted us back in the main house and we were bombarded with a lot questions and scoldings by Locket that we ended up arguing as the usual but she was strangely angrier than usual that she told me that I should have been more careful in driving and we could have prevented the accident and that the pup could have been alright.

"You what??" Now it's Abigail's turn after she met up with me and Ash in the kitchen and Locket has just reported what happened. 

"We really didn't see it coming, Abigail... Sorry it happened... The car's fine at the very least and the puppy is alright too.. The vet already told us that it just need to rest for two days~" Ash was the one who explained and I got to meet Abigail's gaze on me.

"We got worried. What took you two long enough~? So that's what happened... Then let me see how is the little canine doing??" Abigail asked us so we led her to the living room and the pup was there sleeping on a basket that Locket prepared for it.

"Oh~??! Where have you ran this over with?? This pup is my niece's pet actually~!" Abigail told us and hearing her made us to widen our gazes.

"Huh?? Re-really?!?" Ash reacted beside me and he drew his face closer to the pup that Abigail touched.

"You mean this pup is really-" Locket spoke up but she didn't finished and Abigail only smiled at us.

"Who could have imagined you'll ran over this pup and bring it back here~ I bought this pup on my niece's birthday but it suddenly disappeared one day... We thought that it ran away and we weren't able to find him again. It was two months ago~" Abigail stood up and placed her hands on my shoulder and Ash's.

"Thank you for bringing it back in the most unlikely way, you two..." She told us and she was simply about to tear up as a trace of tear accummulates from her eyes behind her glasses.

"Well, but we are still sorry for hurting it, Abigail~" Ash trailed off and he spoke a bit milder this time.

"It is not a problem anymore... Good and bad things happen for certain reasons, right??? But Drew, please be more careful next time alright~ I would not be happy to hear if you involve in any bigger accidents in the future... Let us have our supper now, dears~ Please help me with the soup, Max??" And with that, Abigail led us to the kitchen that I noticed how Locket was left behind with her seemingly strange gaze on the sleeping pup before she got caught up when Dawn called out to her that she ran up to us and let off a sudden smile before she fixed her gray cap.
