Hi, hello! I'm happy you're home!"

Chap After an extra few hours volunteering at the care home, Chap couldn't help but feel a tug of guilt as he waved goodbye to the elderly occupants, promising to return bright and early the next day. Gentle laughter followed him out as he assured Janice that his chess skills would surely prevail in their next match, his warm grin matching the twinkle in the old woman's eyes. Despite the long day, there was a spring in his step and his tail wagged uncontrollably as he made his way back to the flat he shared with Geuegfe.

As the familiar building came into view, his heart fluttered. Chap could smell Geuegfe's distinct aroma permeating through the closed door from a distance. A rush of excitement overwhelmed him and he found himself quickening his pace. His snout collided with the door in his haste. While it hurt a little, he merely shrugged it off with a huff, his happiness buoyant and invincible. "They're home!" he exclaimed to himself before fumbling with the keys and bursting indoors, his tail now wagging at hyper-speed.

Spotting Geuegfe in the kitchen, Chap couldn't suppress his joy. "Hi, hello! I'm happy you're home!" His voice echoed with genuine pleasure. Without pausing for breath, he fired off a series of questions. "What're ya cookin'? How was your day? We could get takeaway if you want or maybe we could snuggle up and watch a movie? Want to know how my day went? You smell nice, by the way, did you put something new on?" His words tripped over themselves in his enthusiasm, the loveable, oblivious, and wholly endearing part of his personality shining through in those moments.
