You called Mimi to the living room, she waddled slowly and carefully, it’s clear she still fears you despite forgiving you.
“So, honey… I know I beat you a lot some days ago, but I bought something that will make you happy.”
“Pwesent.. fo’ Mimi? Bu’ Mimi am wowstest fwuffy…”
“I know, but I still can’t bear seeing you depressed like this. Here you go.”
“Daddeh? Dis am…”
You bought a neutered stallion to give Mimi some company and be her special friend. You hope it works or else it would be another huge loss of money besides the one you already went through to buy this shit.
This one you’re willing to take care of by yourself so your kid doesn’t have to.
You took some precautions to make him not want special huggies ever, though. Just in case both get any ideas.
“Hewwo, am Owivew, nice to meet yu, nice fwuffy! Wan be speciaw fwend? Nu can hab babbehs, bu’ stiww wan wub an’ huggies.”
“Daddeh… Mimi am…”
For the first time since the beating, she nuzzled your leg willingly.
“Fank’ ou, Daddeh. Mimi wub yu.”
“Treat Oliver well, okay? And no special huggies, ever.”
“Otay, Daddeh.”
Mimi went and nuzzled Oliver, which nuzzled back.
“Come, speciaw fwend! Wet’s pway baww!”
