Sakda nodded, a coy smile on his face. He nudged his head in the general direction he had seen her last. "Over there, I think." He told her. His smile changed from coy to playful as Bof (Was that her name now?) licked his chin.

Jackie bit her lip as she glanced over to where Sakda motioned before looking back over at him. Even though she'd gotten over most of her shy nature, there were still some times where it got the best of her. "Will you go with me?"

"InTae hyung, can you hold her?" Sakda asked his older brother, holding out the puppy. InTae sighed, muttering in Korean and Sakda could only assume he wanted to go home. "I'm gonna call mom and see if we can't get a big dog, too. I like the golden retriever." He said, taking hold of Bof, then pointing towards the front door. "So I'll be outside." Sakda nodded and returned his attention to Jackie. "She's really nice, you don't have to worry. Let's go." He explained, his smile truly showing Everything was going to be alright.

Jackie smiled a bit at InTae's attitude, watching as he walked away before turning back to Sakda. She bit her lip, nodding. "Alright. I'll take your word for it." She folded her hands behind her back, trying to keep calm. There was no guarantee that she would be able to volunteer, but she would be so excited if she could.

Sakda waiting by the office door, knocking for Jackie, a "come in" heard soon after. "You'll do fine." He assured her. He leaned against the doorframe, looking out the window at his brother talking with their mom.

Jackie sent one last glance over to Sakda before stepping into the room, hands folded behind her back, mostly to keep from shaking. "Um, hi Mrs. Jill. I'm Jacqueline. I-I was wondering if um, maybe I could be hired as a volunteer early? I-I'm only 13 right now and I now the age is 14, but I always come in here everyday anyway and it would be amazing if I could do more than just play with the animals." She let out a breath when she stopped talking, realizing that she'd started to babble just a bit.

Mrs. Jill looked over her for a little bit before a flash of recognition was apparent in her eyes. "Oh yes, I recognize you." She said with a smile. She frowned, looking out her office door to see the boy standing and waiting for Jackie. "A new law has passed so we can't legally let you volunteer here." She smiled coyly after saying the words, "However, if we just happen to let slip we leave the keys to kennels on the bulletin board right outside my office, and you just happen to find out the leashes are in the supply closet, along with food and water, I don't how we'd ever be able to stop you from coming in on the weekends and helping out." She said, giving her a small wink.

Jackie felt a frown touch her face when Mrs. Jill mentioned the bill, but a smile replaced her lips the more Mrs. Jill spoke. By the end she was grinning, but she tried to calm her self down. Jackie nodded, running her hand through her hair. "Thank you." She said, giggling just a bit. She was excited that she would be able to volunteer, even if it wasn't exactly legal.

Sakda smiled, hearing what Mrs. Jill had said. He was happy, he didn't lead Jackie on to thinking she could help out. He knew Mrs. Jill loved kids who loved animals, so he had a feeling (thankful correct) she would let Jackie help out. His smile widened as InTae came back into the store, going over to the golden retriever puppy and asking who was in charge (Ms. Laila, Sakda recalled, having volunteered at the same time she was working before) if he could buy the puppy.

"Thank you." Jackie repeated before turning and nearly bouncing out the room. She noticed Sakda waiting outside the door and simply grinned at him, figuring he heard everything. She walked over to him, muttering a "thank you." Jacqueline's attention then turned to his brother, who was standing by another adorable puppy. "Is he getting that one too?"

Sakda nodded, "He got mom's permission, so I guess we get both of them." He told Jackie with a big smile.

"Lucky." Jackie looked over at the dog. She wished they could afford to keep a pet, but with all the mouth her mom had to feed, that wasn't looking to bright. A small smile touched Jackie's lips though, as she remembered that she just got an unofficial volunteer spot and would be able to take care of the animals anyway. "I'm so happy I get to help out."

Sakda smiled, "You wouldn't believe how much convincing it took mom to get one." He frowned, but it was obviously just playful. "I think she likes InTae hyung best." At her mention of being an unofficial volunteer, he grinned again, "Yeah, that's awesome! I look forward to being to see you!"

"I'm sure that's not the case." Jackie giggled, shaking her head lightly. "But hey, now you get two! You guys are lucky." Jackie knew she was lucky too, since she was able to volunteer earlier than allowed. She blushed lightly but kept smiling. "Yeah, me too. Thanks for helping me."

"No problem!" Sakda said with a grin, noticing InTae approaching them with the golden retriever puppy on a leash. "Mom said we need to buy the necessary things for them and go, so..." He muttered to his brother, looking between Sakda and Jackie awkwardly. Sakda smiled, handing her his cell phone already set up to add a new contact. "Give me a call, maybe we can meet up sometime before or after volunteering." He offered with a smile. "어떻게 제가 15 살의 동생은 내가 얘기하는 것보다 소녀의 전화 번호를 빠르게 얻을 수있는가 (How is it my 15 year old brother can get a girl's phone number quicker than I can)?" InTae muttered with a roll of his eyes.
