Chapter 17

"After I was cursed... I hid myself, woof," Prof. Dog began. "I knew people wouldn't recognize me because my head was no longer the same. I was afraid. Afraid of being called a monster."

"How did you overcome that?" I asked.

He blushed. "Well, I met someone like me. She used to live in Aqua Chrysalis. Her name was Miss Cat. Even if she had the head of a cat, she didn't hide. She walked the streets with confidence."

I smiled. Prof. Dog was actually sharing to me his love story.

"I fell in love, woof." He did a little twirl, which was kinda strange but funny. "I was lucky she felt the same way. After months of dating, we got married."

"You're married?!" I almost shouted loudly.

"Yes. We were happy together... until." Prof. Dog flashed a theatrical serious look. "She lost her place at Aqua Chrysalis."

"Who drove her out?" I asked.
