I at describing, but let's just assume Bomi looks cute as a puppy shall we ^_^ The sad part would come soon, just a heads up. I actually enjoy writing angsty parts... Flashback part is indicated.

A sound of a loud buzzer sounded throughout the house. Bomi was in a panda onesie which was part of the pyjamas that Chorong had gotten for both of them. Stretching her arms in the air, Bomi groaned as she staggered towards the door. It was absolutely too early for her. She drowsily opened the door, just a little as the light outside was piercing for her eyes. 

  "I'm here to speak to Chorong." A man dressed neatly with his hair combed to the side. It was evident that he was not very young.    "Ah..Hold on!" Bomi closed the door and with unbalanced footsteps, she rushed towards the invisible boundary to wake Chorong up hurriedly.    "Rongie? Rongie!! There's a man outside looking for you!" Bomi anxiously waited as Chorong stirred slightly before sitting up slowly. Chorong took her time to get out of bed and once she was in reach of Bomi's hands, Bomi dragged Chorong towards the door. Bomi then opened the door for Chorong as the human also tried to adjust to the surroundings.    "Great to see you're awake Chorong." The man said chirpily and entered the house without waiting for Chorong to reply. He comfortably sat on the sofa as he laid his brown leather suitcase on the table. Seeing Chorong still heavy with sleep, Bomi pushed Chorong by her shoulders to make her sit beside the man. Bomi contemplated if she should give them privacy by going to the backyard or serve the man tea, but was brought out of her thoughts as Chorong pulled her by the hand to sit beside her.   "Couldn't we talk in the afternoon or something." Chorong stretched her feet out on the coffee table then closed her eyes. Bomi who had no idea what to do decided to take her duck and some bread while the man started talking to Chorong. Bomi sat away from the humans with her legs folded on the sofa. She then placed the duck on the table as she feed it without forgetting to keep its' feathers.    "So you would have known at this time, you and your pet would have to learn how to bond using your mind." The man tried not to get distracted by the cute pet behind Chorong. He had heard about it from his friend about the duck and the puppy bringing it back and turns out it was true. The man was called Doni and he adored Chorong. He knew that behind that cold surface was still a shy and kind-hearted child, it was just that the lack of love and attention had made her to be unable to attach herself to people. Seeing Chorong and her pet, he suddenly felt fatherly seeing how they were in matching pyjamas and they obviously got along well despite Chorong complaining to him how she did not want a pet way before.    He unlocked the suit case and took out a pair of matching necklaces. Each necklace had a simple ring hanging on it on it had their names on it. Doni then explained "These necklaces would only be activated and be more sensitive to each other as both of you train harder. Bomi would have to train physically while you would have to train in controlling and activating your powers. When your necklaces are more sensitive to each other, you would be able to have a visual image when one of you use your brain power to connect to the other regardless to communicate or to ask for help. Basically the stronger both of you are, the easier it is to connect mentally. Both of you would have to keep wearing this necklace for it to work." Doni took the necklaces out and put it on the table. He then looked over Chorong's shoulder and smiled at Bomi. "I heard you are going to compete among the pets, good luck! I'll be cheering for you and do look after this troublesome child here okay." Doni chuckled as Bomi gave him an eyesmile while Chorong swatted his hand that was patting her head like a child.    "I'll get going then!" Doni finally headed towards the door.    "Bye bye! Come again!" Bomi innocently replied as Chorong flopped down on the sofa, letting her head rest on Bomi's lap.    "Do you want to go back to the bed and sleep?" Chorong shook her head and turned her body so that she was facing Bomi.    "Too lazyyyyyyy" Chorong slurred her words as she felt herself going back to sleep and the softness of Bomi's onesie was only aiding it. Soon, Chorong had fallen asleep and Bomi contemplated if she should carry Chorong to her bed. Bomi lovingly stared at her human and she interlocked her hand with Chorong's. There was only one time where Chorong had held her hand like this and Bomi felt a small glow of happiness radiating inside her. Nobody held her hands on a usual basis and Bomi thought that it means a lot if one held hands together.  -- Bomi had went to a supermarket for the first time. It was a large supermarket, the only one in the human city. It had imports from other cities and thus the supermarket sold an assortment of things that was hard to produce or acquire in the human city. The supermarket was swarmed with people and Bomi felt nervous as she tried not to lose Chorong among the crowd. However, there were booths that gave out free samples and as Bomi weaved through the crowd that were attracted to the different booths, Bomi had lost Chorong as she failed to keep up. Bomi started to panic. She was not sure if Chorong had turned at the corner or went further down, but due to the flow of the crowd, Bomi ended up walking further and further from Chorong who had actually turned to head towards the fruits section. Bomi heart was thumping quickly as she searched for the sight of Chorong. Bomi had walked past a sample booth and to her horror, it was giving samples out duck meat. Bomi unconsciously mumbled "Duckie..." as she felt sorry for the duck and she was reminded of her own duck. Bomi had no idea that you could actually eat ducks and when the lady presented her a sample since she misunderstood Bomi mumblings as she wanted it, Bomi shook her head vigorously and walked away. Bomi craned her neck as she looked for Chorong at different aisles but to no avail. Bomi was getting tired and soon she found an area with significantly lesser crowd that sold washing machines and she sat down at a corner, with her knees to her chest. At the same time, Chorong had kept turning her head to check if Bomi was following her well initially and she believed Bomi was close behind her, thus she turned at the corner without telling Bomi since she thought Bomi was would naturally follow her. After walking slightly further, Chorong realised that there were no footsteps behind her and she quickly turned around. Chorong immediately walked back to where she had turned at when she realised Bomi was no where to be found. Chorong started to sweat as she thought of Bomi feeling terrified being unable to find Chorong. Chorong felt horrible that she was doing her job as a human to look after her pet badly. Chorong anxiety increased as time went by as she failed to spot Bomi. Chorong was speedily walking around when she met one of her friends, Seohyun.    "Oh Chorong! What a coincidence for you to be here, I want to see your pet! Invite me to your house!" Chorong actually do have friends.    "I lost my pet and I'm trying to find her. Would you help me? She has her fringe tied up, a puppy wearing a white shirt underneath denim overall." Seohyun deduced from Chorong's laboured breath that she had been frantically finding her pet.    "Yeah sure, definitely! Wait you and your pet do not have the connection rings yet? This might be trouble because there are actually humans that would prey on pets that are not connected to their human and actually take them away for them to be theirs. And the scary part is, it's actually legal." Seohyun told Chorong when she realized Chorong had been finding

Chapter 5: Love the story!! It is so unbearably cute. I love their interactions and super amused by how persistent taeyeon is being. It would be funny if you added a pet that fell for bomi as well. Or a kind of free for all of others trying to get bomi's attention
