It was a typical morning at Littlest Pet Shop.
It was all the same until Zoe came in looking really happy.
Everyone noticed.
"You look as if you won the lottery Zoe." Ian said.
"This is even better than that. My sister's coming over for a visit to Littlest Pet Shop." Zoe replied.
Ian was surprised. "You have a sister?"
"Yep. She looks a bit like me but pink and she doesn't wear a hat like I do."
The other pets knew about Zoe's sister since the last time she visited Littlest Pet Shop.
A few moments later, Blythe showed up with a pink dog that looked like Zoe but different.
"Ian, this is my sister Gail." Zoe introduced.
Ian walked up to Gail. "Pleased to meet you. Zoe's told me so much about you."
"It's a pleasure to meet you too Ian." Gail replied.
"Once Zoe thought I was locked in Largest Ever Petshop but it turns out it was another dog that looked like me named Tootsie." Gail said to Ian.
Ian and Gail giggled.
"I heard that!" Zoe exclaimed.
"Anyways I do have a girlfriend here." Ian told Gail.
"Oooh. Who is it?"
Ian pointed to Penny Ling.
"Penny Ling?" Gail asked.
"Yep. She and I are both pandas." Ian replied.
"I know that but the only difference is your fur color."
"I also live with Minka's owner since no one ever adopted me. I was an orphan."
"How did it all happen?" Gail asked.
Ian told how he became an orphaned panda bear.
"It all happened when my mom and dad were killed and I was put into a crate that would be placed on cargo ships." Ian explained.
"One stormy night, the cargo ship was on a stormy sea and some of the cargo fell out including me. So I was floating on the ocean for many days and nights until one day I finally reached land. I decided to make the most of it since it would be impossible for a panda like myself to go all the way back home."
"Much later I was lost and hungry. Until Blythe saw me and took me to Littlest Pet Shop. Then one snowy day after the roads were cleared. I didn't have anyone that adopted me until Minka decided to have her owner adopt me. And like they say, the rest is history."
Gail was surprised at Ian's story. "Wow! What a story!"
"If Blythe never found me, I never would've had any friends to be with. And if Minka's owner never adopted me, I never would've had an owner to take care of me and Minka." Ian replied.
Just then the pets came up to Ian and Gail.
"We heard the whole story." Penny Ling said.
"We never knew you were first on a cargo ship." Russell added.
"And I think we know what happened next." Minka replied.
Ian then showed Gail how to play the video game console he always played whenever the other pets were busy with their activities.
"This is so new to me." Gail said as she played.
"Same to us at first but then we pretty much got the hang of it later on."
Zoe then came up to Ian and Gail.
"I see you're teaching my sister how to play the console." Zoe said.
"And I think I got the hang of this." Gail replied.
Later Ian was busy helping Penny Ling stack some bamboo sticks.
"Gail is something." Ian said to Penny Ling.
"Indeed." Penny Ling replied.
"But that won't come across between us." Ian said as he looked at Penny Ling with a smooth look in his eyes.
Ian then tickled Penny Ling as she giggled.
"Ian...stop...that tickles." Penny Ling said as she laughed.
Minka then tickled Ian and Penny Ling as they laughed.
Gail chucked at what she saw.
Later Ian was taking a nap near the window.
Gail decided to sleep with Ian.
So Gail walked up to Ian and slept with him.
"I guess Gail's all tuckered out from spending time with us." Pepper said.
"Let's leave them to sleep." Penny Ling said quietly.
The pets did their activities quietly as Ian and Gail snoozed happily.
"This is the best day I ever had." Gail thought.
The End
