Molly, Gil and the firefighter were still in shock with all the puppies.
"Dottie… had puppies?" Molly asked.
The firefighter nodded her head. "Yeah, that why she was wining."
The guppies looked at each other. "Ohhh."
"We just don't know who is the father."
Molly looked at Gil's puppy. "I think I know who might be." She pointed at Bubble Puppy. The mermaid and the firefighter both nodded in unison.
Gil's jaw was open, but nothing came up. "Bubble Puppy? Oh no, he cannot be a father. He is just a puppy! Dottie is just a puppy too, there is no way that they had these puppies. Besides, Bubble Puppy has been here with me this whole time!"
Molly put her hand on Gil's shoulder. "I know it's a lot to take in, but Bubble Puppy is growing up. He is going to be a great father."
"What?! No no no no no, he is not a father! He is just a little puppy, and he always will be. "
The mermaid sighed, and took her phone out of her purse. "I'm texting the gang."
. . .
Fifteen minutes later, Goby, Deema, Oona and Nonny arrived at the firefighter station, to see the puppies. Gil had his hands over his eyes chanting to himself He is not a father, he is not a father. Molly swam up to her friends. "I'm glad you guys could make it so late, I-"
"Is it true?" Oona blurted out. "Bubble Puppy and Dottie had puppies?"
Molly nodded her head, as her friend and Deema squealed to each other.
"Gil doesn't believe us?" Nonny asked.
Molly took her friends away from the puppies and whispered "No. He doesn't want to let go. He still believes Bubble Puppy is just a little… puppy."
"Well he's obviously not; he just had puppies with Dottie." he pointed out.
Goby looked over at Gil. "Let me talk to him." The short-haired guppy swam over to his friend who was still sitting on the floor with his hands covering his eyes. He put his elbow on the blue-haired guppy.
"Gil. You know those are Bubble Puppies… puppies."
He sighed, heavily, "I know, I know. I didn't want to admit it, but… it's true. Molly is right; Bubble Puppy is turning into an independent dog." He glanced at the running puppies. Four of the puppies had white fur and had two dots on their ear, like Bubble Puppy. The rest of them had dark fur like Dottie, and also had the two dots on their ear. "He will make a great dad."
Goby smiled. "You can say that again."
Gil got up and swam over to the puppies. "Hey puppies!" He turned to the firefighter. "How do we know if it's a boy of a girl?"
She shrugged her shoulders. "I'm no doctor."
The guppies joined Gil and each petted a puppy. The puppy Gil looked at kept chasing his tail. He then burped out a Bubble
Gil looked at the puppy and gasped. "That's what Bubble Puppy did when I met him!" He picked up the puppy and put him on his lap. "I'm going to call you Bubble Puppy Junior!"
