After everything of that happened, Bonnie went to a doctor. His nine year long mourning was doing no good for him. Bonnie told the doctor the entire story.
"Hmm... So you don't talk to your daughter or your brother often... And you spend a lot of time alone... For how long again?" Asked the doctor, in a serious tone.
"...Since my daughter was born... 9 years ago..." Bonnie said, sitting on a couch. The doctor had said Bonnie could lie down if he wanted, but the bunny preferred to stay sitting.
"9 years... I see... And after all this time, you still miss your wife?" The doctor asked him, while taking notes on a tiny, red covered notebook with a fancy ink pen.
"Well yes! I don't understand... And I do really love my daughter and my brother, but... I... I don't know how to talk to them... I just keep thinking of Connie..." Bonnie looked down.
"Hmm..." The doctor stopped writing down. "... Mr. Jovi... Or... Can I call you Bon?" He asked.
"Everyone calls me Bonnie"
"Alright, Bonnie, can I call you like that?" Asked the doctor. The purple bunny nodded. "Well, I can see that you loved your wife. So much you gave up on the album to stay with her. Although, you said it was for your family. Are you certain of that?" The doctor asked. Bonnie looked confused.
"W-what do you mean? I don't understand"
"I mean, are you sure it was for your family? Or was it just for her?" The doctor looked closer to Bonnie, who looked away. The doctor kept looking close.
"... I guess... It was for her... Um... I feel like... I lost everything..." Bonnie's eyes filled with tears. He tried to hide it.
"Look Bonnie, I know what it looks like. It's like you think you don't care about the death of your wife if you don't mourn about it. But you must change your way of thinking about that, or you will only get farther and farther away from your family" The doctor explained. Bonnie nodded.
"Y-yes, I understand... But how?" The purple bunny asked.
"Hmm... You have to find a way to get closer to your family... What about a pet? Do you like animals, Bonnie?" Suggested the doctor. Bonnie stopped to think.
"I... I never had any pets... But yes, I do like animals... I think it could be a good idea, and Honey would probably like too..." Bonnie said.
After the talk with the doctor, Bonnie walked around the town.
"Hmm... There must be a pet shop around here..." Bonnie said to himself, looking around. After some time, Bonnie entered the only pet shop he could find. It seemed rather new, as if it had opened recently. Bonnie never heard of the place, but it looked like a regular pet shop. Although, aside from the animals, there was nobody there.
"... Hello? Is anyone here?" Bonnie asked. He then heard a crash in the back room, scaring him. He jumped a little.
"Uh... Sorry... Is everything ok?" He asked. Someone came with a cooking pan on their head.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I was cooking for the babies! Hehehe" A muffled voice came from the pan, covering their mouth, they quickly took it off. Bonnie saw it was a girl fox. She looked like Mangle, but older, in her early 20's. She wore orange shorts and had white fur, with orange fur in her belly and ears. Her eyes were black, with white glowing pupils. She wore a purple bow tie, with purple lipstick and cheeks.
"Huff... Huff... How can I help you, sir?" Asked the fox, looking tired.
"Um... Are you ok, lady?" Bonnie asked, helping her pick up the pan from the cooking pots from the floor.
"Ugh... Yes! I'm fine! I'm fine! I'm dizzy but I'm fine! Don't worry! Hehe... What can I help you with, sir?" She asked, smiling, shaking her head to get rid of the dizziness.
"... I'm not really sure... I wanted to adopt a pet..." Bonnie said.
"Well why didn't you tell me that before?! Come here!" She said, happily, going back to the back room. Bonnie followed her.
"By the way, what's your name, lady?" Bonnie asked.
"I'm Lolbit! That's why the store it's called Lolbit's Byte store! It's in the sign outside! Hahaha" She said, laughing.
"Um... There's no sign outside, it just says "pet shop" in the glass" Bonnie said awkwardly.
"Oh... Um, I mean, it will be in the sign that I'll put outside soon! Hehehe" Lolbit looked a little nervous, but kept her happy attitude.
"Well, What do you think of them? Aren't my babies cute?" Asked the fox, pointing at a big metal crib. Inside, however, there was nothing in there.
"Hmm? What babies?" Bonnie asked, looking in the crib. Lolbit opened her eyes wide.
"Oh no!" She yelled, running deeper inside the back room, to an open metal door with glass windows. She came back with an embarrassed smile.
"I'm so sorry! I left the door open. They almost escaped" Lolbit said, bringing with her a big net, the same type used to hunt bugs. The net was full. Lolbit closed the door and emptied the net inside the crib again.
"They get like this when they're hungry! Hehe, I was making lunch for us. Well, now you can meet them! Those are the baby bytes I'm taking care of" Lolbit said, putting the pot on the oven again to make the food. Bonnie looked at the crib again. He saw the bytes, bug-like animatronics that liked flying around their owners, making them good pets. Each of them looked different, but mostly with similar features: big goggly eyes, bug-like wings and antennas with fluffy balls on the end. They all were really colorful. Some looking like UFOs, others like poker tokens, or bombs, or even medkits. The ones Bonnie was looking at were smaller. Babies. They all stared at the bunny with their big shiny eyes. Bonnie looked nervous to stare back.
"Haha, don't be scared. They're just hungry! They think you're gonna feed them" Lolbit said, smiling. She was already cooking for her, heating the water to make noodles.
"Hmm... I think my daughter will like this one..." Bonnie said, holding a bee-like byte with black and yellow stripes and blue eyes.
"Oh, it's a Neon Bee! I think he likes you" Said Lolbit. The Neon Bee started flying around Bonnie. It made an angry face and started to fly aggressively towards Bonnie. The purple bunny looked nervous.
"Here, don't worry. He's just angry! Hehe" Lolbit gave him a little plate of byte food. Bonnie handed a little of it to the Neon Bee. It ate and calmed down, sitting on Bonnie's shoulder.
"Aaw, he really does like you!" Lolbit said. Smiling.
"I think I will take him home" Bonnie said. Lolbit stopped cooking for a minute.
"Alright! I'll fill the papers. Come" Said Lolbit, leaving the oven and going back.
After some time, Bonnie was going to take the Neon Bee home. He signed all the papers and bought the byte food for him.
"Thank you! What's your name?" Asked Lolbit, smiling.
"It's Bonnie. Bonnie the bunny"
"And I'm Lolbit!" She said.
"I think you already said that, Lolbit..." Bonnie said awkwardly.
"Oh yeah! I did! Hehehe!" Lolbit laughed. Bonnie went home. The baby Neon bee on his shoulder.
"I hope that Honey likes you" Bonnie said, petting the Neon bee.
