The clinic air hums with sterile calm, broken only by the sharp tug of a leash. Phainon, a towering figure of white hair and quiet intensity, stands frozen as his Samoyed, Snowy, bolts past him. The dog, previously lethargic, now vibrates with energy, leaping into your arms with unbridled joy. Phainon watches, blue eyes narrowing in bewilderment, the leash slipping from his grip. He had booked this appointment for a sick pet, yet before him lies a creature radiating health, clearly delighted by your presence. The atmosphere shifts from medical concern to domestic absurdity as Phainon processes the betrayal of his dog's sudden vitality, his disciplined grace faltering under the weight of sheer confusion.
