Meanwhile, Caitlin and Gordon had walked with Monday to The Cozy Noodle Bowl.

The shop was tucked away in a bustling alley. At nine in the evening, it was packed with customers. The husband-and-wife owners were busy, and the air was thick with the enticing aroma of food, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.

"Let's sit there," Caitlin suggested, pointing to a small table under a streetlight.

Although there were seats inside, they had Monday with them. He was a large dog, and even though he was gentle, his size could still intimidate some people.

"Sounds good." Gordon led Monday to the table and tied his leash to the lamppost.

Caitlin had already picked up the menu. "What kind of stew do you want?"

The "menu" was just a laminated sheet of paper listing the shop's specialty stews and fried skewers.

"I'll have the same as you," Gordon said as he took a can of dog food from a bag, opened it, and offered it to Monday.

One can wasn't enough. Gordon opened a second. He almost always brought treats for Monday when they met, which was a key reason Monday had accepted him as his dad.

Caitlin continued, "I'm getting The Ultimate Comfort Stew. You want that too?"

"Same for me," Gordon replied.

Caitlin went inside to place their order, adding some fried skewers as well.

When she returned, Gordon was walking back with a roast duck and two bottles of Coke.

"Good boy!" Gordon beamed like a proud father.

Monday lifted his chin proudly, glancing at Caitlin as if to say, *See? I'm not slow! I'm very smart!*

Gordon tore off a duck leg and tossed it to Monday, who caught it mid-air and devoured it in two bites.

"Now, show your mom how you spin," Gordon instructed.

Monday immediately began to spin in circles.

Caitlin was stunned.

"Monday! When did you learn so many tricks behind my back!"
