Chi misses her mommy…
After Youhei's mother takes him to bed, Chi begins dreaming. Or rather, having a nightmare. She dreams that she's being chased by a tire, then by a matroyska doll-like dog.
Noticing that Chi's is trembling in her sleep, Youhei's dad pets Chi. She's reminded of when her mother used to lick her, and calms down.
Youhei's family, completely unable to find a caretaker for Chi, wonders if they will have to keep her.
Thoughts:
Poor Chi, her life is still up in the air. :(
