Here's the next chapter of "House of Pullip". The party events continue...enjoy!
Chapter 36:
*Hawk is still hanging around Shiloh*
Hawk: I take it back. That guy over there has longer hair then you…dang.
*Shiloh looks and sees Sebastian*
Shiloh: Wow… *giggles*
Hawk: But yours is prettier.
Shiloh: *blushes again*
Shelby: This is a nice party, Alex. You did a great job organizing it.
Alex: Thanks.
Toby: Are you okay?
Alex: I just wish…well, nevermind. You know what I wish, but I need to stop dwelling on it. I better go check on the food. See you guys later.
*Alex walks off*
Shelby: *sigh* I wish there was something we could do to cheer him up.
Toby: Only one person can really cheer him up now. Or he just needs to get over her and move on, but I don’t think that’s going to happen.
Shelby: I wish Madison would just talk to him…
Sebastian: *to Madison* You are so quiet, Madison. Are you alright?
Madison: I’m fine.
Sebastian: I don’t believe you.
Madison: *irritated* Not now, Sebastian.
*Sabrina approaches*
Sabrina: Madison, we need to talk. Right now!
Madison: *sigh* Fine.
*Madison and Sabrina walk off together*
Sebastian: I wonder what they are up to?
Paige: I think Sabrina is trying to help Madison with her issues.
Sebastian: Although I have my objections to Sabrina, I do hope she will be able to help Madison. She won’t talk to me any further about what is bothering her…it’s not like her to avoid talking to me.
Paige: I’m sorry.
Sebastian: Don’t be, love. I still have you to talk to.
Paige: *smile*
Sabrina: Madison! You’ve haven’t talked to Alex yet, have you?
Madison: Um…
Sabrina: You promised! Well…if you aren’t going to keep your promise, then I don’t see why I should keep mine.
Sabrina: Look… *points to Crispin and Oki* There’s Crispin right there. I’m sure I could think of some way to go flirt with him now.
Madison: No!
Sabrina: Well…?
Madison: I’ll talk to Alex. I will. I promised and I will. I’m just waiting for the right time.
Sabrina: You better hurry and find the time, I won’t wait forever.
Oki: A wedding! I can’t wait, I love weddings!
Crispin: Congratulations!
Roxanne and Wolfgang: Thank you.
Oki: You two are so cute together.
Wolfgang: *blush*
Roxanne: Well…you are pretty cute with Crispin, too.
Oki: *giggles*
Grace: I know I don’t know you very well, but I’d like to offer my congratulations, too.
Roxanne: Oh, thank you!
Wolfgang: Thank you.
*a slightly awkward silence*
Grace: Excuse me…
*Grace suddenly leaves*
Roxanne: Oh no, did we scare her away?
Crispin: No, I don’t think that’s it. She was married before. He husband died about a year ago, I think it’s still hard for her. This engagement party might remind her of her own marriage…I didn’t even think of it until now.
Roxanne: Poor Grace…
Oki: *to Crispin* We should go with her, I don’t want her to be sad alone.
Crispin: Good idea, see you two later.
*Oki and Crispin walk to catch up with Grace*
