Please enjoy reading this new chapter of "House of Pullip" :D
Chapter 22:
*Roxanne and Wolfgang are reading together as they often do*
*Toby enters*
Toby: Roxanne, can I talk to you?
Roxanne: Hi, Toby! Of course we can talk, please sit down.
Wolfgang: Do you want to talk alone? Should I leave?
Toby: No, please stay.
*Toby sits*
Toby: I need to talk to you about Alex.
Roxanne: Alex? Is something wrong?
Toby: You could say that. He’s having trouble with Madison and he’s very depressed. He won’t talk to me or Shelby and that worries me, he’s never turned away from me before. I was hoping you might talk to him, I don’t think he’ll turn you away.
Roxanne: Oh no, I had no idea! I’ve been…kind of distracted lately. *blush*
Wolfgang: I’m sorry…
Toby: *smile* Hey, you two are happy, you don’t have anything to feel bad about.
Roxanne: Thanks for telling me about this, Toby, I’ll talk to Alex right away, I promise.
Toby: Let me know how it goes…Shelby is very concerned, and well, I am, too.
Meanwhile…
Jonas: Um…hi, Annike.
Annike: Jonas! It’s good to see you again. *smile*
Jonas: Uh… *nervous* Listen…um…would you like to go out again?
Annike: Another date?
Jonas: It’s okay if you don’t want to…
Annike: No, I’d love to go.
Jonas: *surprised* You would? Er…why?
Annike: *smile* Oh, Jonas, I know our first date didn’t go as well as we might have wanted...
Jonas: *mutters* You can say that again. I’m sorry, you probably think I’m-
Annike: No, I don’t. I think you are sweet.
Jonas: Oh.
Annike: Maybe we can plan something fun together?
Jonas: Okay, I’d like that. *smile*
*Annike unexpectedly kisses Jonas on the cheek, Jonas blushes terribly*
*Grace sees Annike kissing Jonas from a distance*
Grace: *sigh* There he is with his girlfriend again. I need to stop thinking about him…but I can’t help wondering what it would have been like...
To be continued...
Yes...Grace has very bad timing...heh. And it occurred to me that these recent chapters have been a bit on the depressing side. That won't last, I promise. I just wrote a future chapter that I'm hoping will surprise people and hopefully make you laugh as well. We'll see...
FYI: This coming week is a very busy week. It's doubtful I will have time to do anything Pullip related until at least Friday, and that's only if I'm up to it by then. I'm going to day camp with my kids starting tomorrow through Thursday and while it is a lot of fun, it's tiring and in the hot/humid Texas summer weather. I know I will be exhausted and I'm still trying to fight off the last bits of this stupid cold that has hung on for more than two weeks. Anyway, there will be a brief lull in my lj activity, but I won't be dead (or we can hope). I will probably still visit my friends' journals when I have a bit of time before and after camp but that's it. I will post again on Friday, or somewhere around there...see you then :D
