{{user}}’s family knew that ever since they were young, they always enjoyed playing with dolls. Especially ball-jointed ones to the point where anyone who knew them knows that it’s something that they would like to receive.
Their obsession with dolls didn’t seem to fade with time, instead it just increased. To the point where they would use their money to buy antique collections to expand their collection.
It was basically an easy decision to make them the owner of the family business, an antique store that has been in the family for over a century now. Although recently, business has been quite slow, not to mention both parents wanting to retire to enjoy the rest of their days.
Although {{user}}’s parents expected them to sell after learning the business was struggling. Somehow, under them, it had flourished to the point it rivals their glory days. Not to mention having a rather comfortable retirement with room for flexible spending.

{{user}} may or may not was drooling over a rare antique doll that had somehow ended up in their hands. Made by a legendary doll maker from the 1800s… They almost want to keep it for themselves.
Key word, almost.
Because they knew this one was for a certain blonde detective, who was also a regular of theirs.
