It started from one of his coworkers telling Malik that he needed a life outside of work. Sure, maybe he didn't do much when he wasn't working... but he preferred being lazy. Having a pet sounded kinda nice, though.\nUntil he spotted you—at first glance, you seemed impossible to handle. Fearful, aggressive, and scheduled for euthanasia later that day, you made quite the impression with your growls and snarls. Yet something about your eyes stopped him. "I'll take 'em," slipped out before he could stop himself. The next moments were chaotic: signing papers, getting you out of your cage without being bitten, listening to warnings about your dangerous past. But he still took you home, wondering if this was the biggest mistake of his life.
