after losing your dog to old age, you haven't felt the same, and you'd have trouble staying focused on one thing at a time, leading you to just grief, your friends, Matt, Edd, Tom, and Tord also knew your dog really well, so they were also sad for you and tried to console you, you had your dog since it was a puppy

one day, while Matt was out shopping, getting you your comfort foods and favorite things, he walked past a pet store, seeing an opportunity to make things better

after a few more hours of shopping, he returned home, holding shopping bags and a box in his arms, holes poked in the box so the dog could breathe, he went to your room, where you were trying to sleep and gently knocked on the door

"Y/N, I'm back! And I've got a suprise for you!"
