  8. Dominicboo1 Well-Known Member

    Maybe you should take a break.You're very good with uploading chapters in my opinion.
  9. Collgoff Well-Known Member

  10. Dominicboo1 Well-Known Member

    Your chapters will be much better once you find an idea you like, so wait until you find one and you'll start to have fun again probably. If you're not having fun....don't write more!
  11. Collgoff Well-Known Member

    Do you want us to help you Muppetfan?
  12. muppetfan24/7 Well-Known Member

    I already took some breaks. I am calm thanks to you and Collgoff for your advices.

    No thank you! I know what I am doing. Just give me some time to figure out some good ideas. I can handle this myself.
  13. Dominicboo1 Well-Known Member

    What are friends for?
  14. Collgoff Well-Known Member

    Yeah and your welcome!
  15. muppetfan24/7 Well-Known Member

    Friends are for caring each other and friendship always comes first, before love.

    Okay, now there is no more waiting. The story was lonely unfinished at the top, but now it continues. And please comment! I don't mind the criticism!

    Chapter 14 (Part 2)

    Back above the clouds into the golden place full of peace, joy, and harmony, Jim did all he could. He already talked to Don Sahlin, showed the celebrities his voices even the Swedish Chef, but he didn’t know what else to do. Then, an angel was behind him. Everybody called her Figgie, but her real name was Allison, but scarcely that name was kept a secret.

    “Tomorrow your fellow friends will pay a tribute to you, Mr. Henson,” she said to herself. “I know what he wanted down there and what he left all he could do. Peace, laughter, joy, and the harmony he believed on Earth. He is something! I didn’t know his time was coming, but his health was at risk.”

    Jim was listening, but he paid no attention to the angel behind him. He walked past her to find a place somewhere to sleep.

    “He was so quiet! What do I think his friends are called? Muppets? I have never ever heard that before at all. Maybe that kind man came with that weird name. The word “weird” is always familiar to everyone. We all dream for peace. Why did I come here? That’s right! I suffered from what? Pneumonia? No! I suffered from an awful disease worse than pneumonia. We no longer suffer from the pain anymore and neither does-Jim Henson? Why all of the sudden did I hear that name from the other angels? I wonder what it was like for him to work so hard down there.”

    She knew the message loud and clear. He was a man with dreams full of fantasy or even animals. A frog named Kermit, and then his closer friend, Rowlf the Dog. Swedish chef? So that’s why she heard the celebrities laughing far away. Not just a kind man, very quiet.

    “Maybe I will talk to him tomorrow. No! I should let him be. I live here in peace and so does Jim. I hope his friends are okay. They know he’s gone. If I heard he left some gift, then that shall keep him in peace without going back to Earth as a ghost or something else. Well, whoever’s time is next to come here for peace, they are welcomed young and old and all kinds of creatures.”

    Then, someone called Figgie to find a nice place to sleep. Figgie, the angel sighed and retired for the night to be fully rested for tomorrow.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    At New York, life was not normal. It was filled with people with conflicts. War was around at different countries. If Henson were still around, he would have made everything better. It did not matter to anyone who does not know a thing about Muppets. There were selfish, filled with anguish, and whatever they were thinking about. The Muppet fans however were not happy with others that now say that once someone is gone they would cheer like a bunch of crazies. Even Figgie knew it was wrong. When she told her friends that her idol Jim Henson was gone, they would just ignore her, but not her BFFs, Trish, Amy, Dominic, Vincent, and Beth right now. They were her new friends for sure. Would Kermit feel bad if someone didn’t care about Jim or someone was upset that his or her friends didn’t care about Jim or someone famous who was gone? Absolutely! He loved kids! Even the frog had friends. If it were humans, he probably would be really shy. She was glad that she had real friends that cared about her. Not selfish friends or people that don’t care about friendship.

    Figgie let out a sigh as she opened her backpack and out came a Kermit toy.

    “Kermie,” Figgie said trying to act Piggy-like.

    There was no way she had a crush on him. She loved the frog. Everyone loved the leader! Jim loved everyone no matter how he felt. Figgie was also not Piggy, but she loved glamorous clothes.

    She couldn’t help it. Her idol was gone! Everything was changing and now people just don’t care? How could she feel so horrible from hearing Jim’s passing everywhere? She sadly put her Kermit doll on the desk. Finally, after not being upset for four days, she broke into tears.

    “I feel like today is like history or is it me in the past.” Figgie thought. “No, I am not in the past and earlier I thought I heard a voice from the sky. The voice sounded like me and-Nah! I don’t think the voice was the same as mine. Oh well, I better some sleep, but before I go to bed. Maybe singing a song can put me to sleep.

    I know the whole world is everywhere
    It’s full of fruits and things.
    It’s full of air.

    But when I try to understand
    I always wonder in despair
    How wide, how far, how real it is

    And if the whole world is like me
    It must get lonely in the dark and I ask for tea
    And is there anybody here who really knows just how to see
    How wide, how far, how real it is?

    The whole world is real, but no one will reveal
    How wide, how real it is

    “I am a boss, but I never get mean to creatures.” Figgie thought. “I believe those creatures are the boss of themselves. Well, we are the bosses at their “Outer Space.” Ugh! I never force at them. That would hurt their feelings.”

    Figgie sighed and wanted to go to sleep until someone else came in. It was none other than Trish. She did not want to be alone.

    “Why are you here?” Figgie asked nervously. She knew she never ever saw this girl. But they were both Muppet fans and they cared about the Muppets too no matter what size.

    “I came here to sleep with you, because I do not want to sleep alone.” Trish said. “I know you don’t know me, but we can be start being friends if you want.”

    Figgie didn’t know what to say. She has been quiet for a long time, but that was not going to happen for now.

    “Okay,” Figgie said. “Moi will let vous be my friend.”

    “You speak French?”

    “Oui, Trish!”

    “You’re weird!”

    “I know! I speak French sometimes since I took those you know classes that were crowded and many of them spoke le francais or French.”

    “That’s why you’re weird?”

    “Sort of! I was so confused that I decided to watch the Muppet Show and listening to Piggy in her French kind of way made me like the language after all.”

    “Well, I had a crush on Kermit when I was younger. But then, I had a crush on either Gobo or Boober after I watched the show. Oh good grief! You won’t believe that sometimes I think my parents definitely act like Pa and Ma Gorg.

    “They were bossing you around?”

    “They sure were the bosses, and those Gorgs did scare the daylights out of me. Ugh! I sometimes try to tell my parents to leave me alone. They wouldn’t and treated me like a child or a powerless Fraggle.”

    “That’s terrible!”

    “I know! When I finally grew up, they stopped, and just let me be. So, I was sort of the boss of myself. I drive myself to places, go anywhere I want, and I even make my own food and for my parents.”

    “What happens when they don’t talk to you and are very busy?”

    “I wrote my parents notes and stuff.”

    “Really?”

    “Yeah!”

    “Wow!”

    “I know, right?”

    They had a great conversation until finally they slept together like they were friends just for one night.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    “Well, how should I know? I know pestilence, but I don’t know what it is.”

    Teaching Boober vocabulary was harder than they thought. Colleen and Dominic were acting like best friends again, since they have been spending their time together alone for too long. Amy forgot he was not good at those big words, but Beth knows. Not only was she smart, she always reads books and very good at resources.

    “Well, um, it’s a disease that is harmful for you, even though you don’t want to get it.” Beth said nervously. She was feeling so nervous that there was now a loss of words.

    “That’s what it is. Ugh! I always worry about pestilence.”

    “Well, we also worry about pestilence,” Beth said, with the feeling of her somewhere shaking. She hoped she was telling the truth.

    “Right,” Boober said dryly. He still couldn’t believe all silly creatures would be like, scared or even paranoid for their world.

    “Hey Dom, it’s your turn,” Colleen said softly.

    Now Dominic felt the pressure of his worries that were going to happen all around him.

    “Okay, what is…uh…well…um…I can’t do it. I simply can’t do it.” Dominic said, with the guilt he felt inside.

    “WHAT,” everyone in the room said together except Dominic.

    “I am no good at words much, but I like my friends. Those people out there are a bunch of fools. They don’t know diseases, the word of “quiet” or even someone they lost. All they think death is just nothing and play games. Ugh! No offense, guys, but I can’t even stand thunderstorms or getting wet.” Dominic said, with his hurtful truth being told.

    “Finally, something that makes sense,” Boober thought.

    “You don’t swim?” Beth asked wearily, as she got the feeling that he was feeling miserable.

    “No, Beth,” Dominic said, with the seriousness from his tone. “I tried to swim once as a young boy, but I almost drowned. Once I get back home, then I will find out what I can do. If you’ll excuse me, I am going to find Vincent. Good night!”

    Once Dominic left the room, Colleen left as well to find Dominic. “He’s just being silly,” Colleen thought. “But I don’t blame him that he was scared of something.” While Colleen was thinking about Henson again as she was looking for her “Dom,” he knocked on the door to know if Vincent was available.

    “Dom, I am very tired,” Vincent said sleepily. “What do you want?”

    “Vin, come on, can I please sleep with you?” Dominic asked in a quiet tone.

    “No, and I don’t feel like sleeping with anyone,” Vincent said, wearily.

    “Now who’s the grouch,” Dominic thought. “A grouch and a grump are very different from each other.”

    “Okay, then I will sleep with Colleen just for…”

    Vincent immediately groaned and shut the door normally before Dominic could finish his sentence.

    “Great,” Dominic thought. “He does want to be alone instead of being with a best friend.”

    “Dom,” Colleen said quietly, since she knew that the hallway was quiet. “You can sleep with me if you want to.’

    “Okay,” Dominic said sighing. “But only for this night. You are very nice!”

    “Thanks,” Colleen said. “That means a lot to me. We do have a big day tomorrow.”

    They were quiet for now, and then to Colleen’s reserved room before they fell asleep; knowing that this was their last night to have fun and get to know each other.
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Red and Gobo meanwhile were already tired, and they were supposed to sleep. They make a quick decision to touch their heads to share their dreams.

    “Dream a dream and see.” Gobo said, before yawning.

    “What a dream can possibly be.” Red said.

    As they were asleep, they were into from mist to now a land where the background had rocks. They walk to wonder where they were going. Then, they came to a place known as the Great Hall that included the Fraggle horn and a Fraggle pond. This brought back memories for the both of them. However, Red then found something familiar. She was young Fraggle and it was a few days before Gobo’s Uncle Matt went to explore Outer Space. Something else also caught her eyes. That young Fraggle looked sad. Red realized that she did meet Gobo first, then Wembley and Boober. She needed one more friend. A girl fraggle that could guide her, and then maybe comfort her, whenever she is in trouble from someone or even getting herself into danger.

    The problem was she was really scared of the Gorgs earlier. Red knew how it felt to be scared of those tall hairy mountains. That one day, she did try to get a radish for her friends, but it didn’t work out very well. She was almost “thumped” by a brown mountain. Ugh! How awful she felt. Now she dreamed that she wished there would be changes, unless it was useless to have changes around the Rock.

    (Red)
    There was a day when everyone was kind
    When their voices were soft
    And their words inviting
    There was a day when love was blind
    And the world was a song
    And the song was exciting
    There was a day
    Then it all went wrong

    I dreamed a dream in days gone by
    When hope was high
    And life worth living
    I dreamed that love would never die
    I dreamed that everyone would be forgiving
    Then I was young and unafraid
    And dreams were made and used and wasted
    There was no nothing to be paid
    No song unsung
    No radish untasted

    But the gorgs come at night

    (A Female Purple Lavender Fraggle) (You will find out what this fraggle is after the song)
    (But the gorgs come at night)


    With their voices loud as lightning (Red sang)
    As they tear your hope apart

    (Purple Lavender Fraggle)
    (As they tear your hope apart)

    (Red & the Purple Fraggle in Harmony)
    And they turn your dream to shame

    The lavender fraggle sings:
    And still I dream they'll come to me
    That we'll live the years together
    But there are dreams that cannot be
    And there are storms we cannot weather

    (Red & the purple fraggle in harmony)
    I had a dream my life would be
    So different from this darkness I'm living
    So different now from what it seemed
    Now life has killed
    The dream I dreamed

    After the song, back out from the Great Hall, Red now felt the past can be mysterious, but it still lurks out from her or even her friends. That purple lavender fraggle was Mokey. She sure was a quiet one, but they started becoming friends before there were even roommates and got their own cave.

    “Red, are you okay,” Gobo asked

    “Yeah,” Red said. “Let’s wake up now.”

    “Okay!”

    Then, they woke up remembering what a dream they had. Although it was in the past, they will never forget the first time they started having friends. Then, they went to their own beds and went to sleep to be up fully rested for the next day. However, what they didn’t know was Wembley, Boober, and Lisa was already asleep in the same room.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    Meanwhile, Piggy and Kermit were wandering around the streets of New York. No thanks to Piggy, because she did not make reservations earlier for the hotel, karate-chopped Frank Oz for the first time right after finding out that he will not let her be at Jim’s funeral and saying he was too busy than being around with his boss. Piggy felt so sad that she did that.

    Those thoughts came from her head. She was at the second floor and Frank Oz was rooming with Mr. Jerry Juhl.

    She knocked on the door and the door opened and it was Frank Oz, her friend and sometimes her boss, right her first boss and agent, Bernie.

    “Hey Piggy, I wasn’t expecting you!”

    “Were you expecting Moi?” Piggy asked nicely.

    “Yes,” Frank said. “But I have the bad news for you, Miss Piggy, because you are not going to be at Jim's funeral for the closing number.

    "WHAT?" Piggy shouted.

    "I'm serious, but we had a great time for many years. I am going to be busy and I loved being a director." Frank said.

    "I'll show you who’s busy. HI-YA!"

    Frank was now feeling the pain thanks to Piggy's anguish and her madness.

    When he finally took a deep breath, he said, "Piggy, I'm sorry, but those changes happen, but I promise you that we will see each other in two years if you like.”

    “Well Frankie dear, you will expect moi for two years, won’t vous?”

    “Yes, Piggy,” Frank said chucking a little.

    Piggy knew that she did have to forgive him and she did. She forgot that Frank was still thinking about Jim, that was also Kermit’s best friend. Frank was close to Henson just like Piggy formed a bond to the leading frog.

    Then, they noticed a light in front of an apartment. Kermit wondered who it could be. Then, he heard the barking from the dog inside the place.

    “What is it boy?” the voice called out.

    Kermit and Piggy could tell the voice sounded like a girl, but it was no childhood-like voice.

    The next thing happened when the door was opened and they saw another Muppet, but she wasn’t any kind of animal. She had purple face, hands, and legs with brown hair, brown eyes, a green nose, and a beautiful nightgown on.

    Then she was surprised. She saw a frog and a pig. She knew they must have a rough day. The dog they knew was Sprocket. He had gray and white with some fearsome breath, but he would never bite Kermit or Miss Piggy.

    “I am so glad it is not a crook or a stranger. I had an awful day. Kermit and Miss Piggy, I am one of your biggest fans. Yes! I can’t believe it.”

    “Rowf! Rowf!”

    “I know Sprockety old boy. You’re glad to see them too huh? Please have a seat.”

    Miss Piggy and Kermit sat on a comfortable couch that was big enough, to fit the two of them.

    “Um…I-I forgot your name.” Kermit said finally after being quiet from walking around the streets of New York.

    “It’s Colette!” the purple Muppet whatnot said. “I had gotten into bad tricks from those crooks and nannies, or vultures.”

    “Whom are you talking to, Colette?” the male voice Muppet called out.

    “I was talking to Kermit and Piggy, Charles.” Colette called out back.

    “Well, I am going back upstairs to get some sleep. Goodnight, French lady!”

    “French lady? Sheesh!” Kermit said wondering what the heck was going on. “W-Where did you come from?”

    “Oh! I am from Indiana! I was in born in California, but my parents and I moved out when I was close to being a five-year old Muppet whatnot.

    “Well, dearie, why do you look so sad?” Piggy asked sweetly.

    “Because nobody cares about me over here that’s why. They’re crazy pathetic vultures and really terrible. I feel like I am not wanted.” Colette said out loud before crying into her tissue.

    “You know Jim’s gone Kermit.” Colette started, after done crying. “If he were here, I would never ever be so awfully mistreated.”

    “I’m sorry, Colette!” Piggy said. “Would you like any help from vous?”

    “No thank you, Miss Piggy.” Colette said. “Here what’s happened earlier, you guys! First, while I was walking Sprocket, one of my purses was stolen. Then, a man almost kidnapped me. Then, whenever I talk to a stranger, the two words were, “Shut up!” I know it sounds terrible, but it happened.”

    “Y-you know you can’t talk to strangers,” suggested Kermit.

    “Well, Sprocket saved my life right after some crooks tried to steal my arm band or my shoes. Ugh! I’m glad I had a companion. Kermit, you were right! I can’t talk to you know those strangers. I don’t even know Charles much, but we’re best friends for now.”

    “Colette, can Mon captain and Moi have the couch to us. Just Kermie and Moi!”

    “Piggy!”

    “Okay,” Colette said, sighing. She would never say no to Miss Piggy. “You both have this couch if you want. So, I see you tomorrow and we can have some more talk, okay?”

    Once Colette, the purple Muppet whatnot was out of sight. Kermit now is going to have a serious talk with Miss Piggy. If he wants alone time, he should sleep alone as well no matter what. He understands that he still loves Piggy, but he needs alone time just for one night. That is all he wants. One night only to sleep alone! He can sleep with Piggy for another time.

    “Piggy, you-you did it again.” Kermit said, with some anguish in his face.

    “Oh Kermie, you must sleep with Moi.”

    “I-I can’t do that tonight, Piggy.”

    “Kermie –”

    “Piggy, we had this talk earlier. I want alone time and that also means sleeping alone.”

    “But Kermie…I’m sorry.”

    “I-I know Piggy, but it’s just hard for me not to think about Jim. The last time I saw him was at a hospital. He was not just in...A coma, he was really sick. Then, he sniffled, and then continued on with his story.

    “I-I couldn’t believe it! He wasn’t getting any better. Before I could see him some more, I...I waved at him for “goodbye” before the nurses told me to leave and go back to the waiting room. Scooter was there, but saying goodbye was hard thing to say to Jim. After I left, I knew Jim was gone, Piggy.”

    “Was Frankie there?” Piggy asked.

    “Yeah, Piggy!” Kermit said quietly. “If Jim lived, we would move on to more projects. I guess the projects he wanted are now not going to happen.”

    Piggy knew Kermit was still feeling depressed from Jim’s passing. He is going to go through difficult times for years to come, but it will take him one flipperstep at a time, before he goes back at the top.

    She did let out a sigh and was thinking that might as well give up just for once and let Kermit sleep alone. Kermit now feels glad that he does need to think about his home, Robin, and maybe the friends he met years ago. Both Piggy and Kermit finally were falling asleep right after a long exhausting day.

    Sprocket also was already asleep in his comfortable bed after a long day being nice to a beautiful and kind Muppet to hang around with. Not only that he knows Muppets exist, so do Fraggles.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    “Oh Charles, doesn’t it seem nice to let Kermit and Piggy stay at my apartment.” Colette said while rubbing Charles shoulders. He was a green Muppet whatnot with blue eyes, short black hair, a white t-shirt and blue jeans with brown sandals.

    “It does seem nice!” Charles said quietly.

    Unlike his Colette, he was a smooth talker sort of what Kermit used to have, but he was just the guy that chills out and hangs out with Colette. He calls her “sweetie bee” whatever that means.

    “Charles, you are so cute.” Colette said cooing to him.

    “Oh Colette! Why do you have to be nice to me?”

    “’Cause I love you, unlike my dad.”

    “What’s wrong with your dad?” Charles asked softly.

    “My dad’s the only human in my family now. He is so tense, Charles. He doesn’t want me to hang out with boys.”

    “My dad sort of like you.”

    “Unlike mine, Charles. He can get on my nerves, drive me nuts, and just ugh, make me miserable.”

    “My dad really liked you.”

    “Your father’s not human.”

    “I know baby, but just chill out, and sleep with me.”

    “Okay, cool talker! We have a long day ahead of us. We got to be washed and ready for Jim’s funeral, but I don’t know that guy.”

    “I know Jim, sweetie bee. He was a friend of Kermit.”

    “Well, time for some sleep, before I wake Janice and Floyd up.”

    “Why?”

    “They are sleeping the same room as we are. I invited them to my apartment too you know.” Colette said whispering to Charles.

    “Makes sense, Colette. Come on, let’s sleep.” Charles said.

    As Colette and Charles got underneath the covers and went to sleep, another bed had Floyd and Janice. Janice woke up wondering what the heck all the commotion was about.

    “Floyd?”

    “Hmmmm”

    “Like what is going on?”

    “Jan, that’s just our Muppet fans, Charles and Colette.”

    “Fer sure?”

    “Yeah! Jan, go back to sleep.”

    “Rully? Like okay!”

    Although Janice knows the conservation was about Kermit and Jim, she loved Floyd and they were not the only ones thinking of Mr. Henson either.

    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    At the swamp, Robin was thinking about Jim as well, because not only was he sometimes silly, he was also a good friend to all kinds of Muppets. He was not alone! Maggie also knows as “Mags,” noticed something didn’t seem right. Unlike adults, kids don’t understand how Jim was gone. It just happened! Death can be hard to anyone especially frogs. Maggie couldn’t believe it. Kermit’s nephew was on her brother’s “Lonely Log.”

    “Why was Rob at that Lonely Log all day ever since we heard of Mr. Henson’s passing?" Maggie thought. “Last time, Mit said that he had to keep an eye on Jim, right after he and Robin went to Disney World. My brother knew Henson was coming down with something. Before, well, before Mit came down with a headache.”
    Then, something happened, and then Robin was talking to a star. Was the star Jim? It could be! Then, Robin got upset after telling that star to leave him alone. He wanted just his Uncle Kermit.

    She felt so sorry for that little frog. For Kermit, it was a different story, because whenever he sits there, she loses her sadness for her brother. She was mad at him, and telling them to get over the loss for anyone that passed away.

    Robin, well, Mags likes her little brother, even though he has many brothers and sisters that are bigger than him.

    “Rob, what is the matter?” Maggie said quietly.

    He looked at his sister, Maggie. “My uncle Kermit’s friend, Jim is gone.”

    “Then, why do you look so sad?” Maggie asked nicely.

    “Mags, Uncle Kermit has not been here for days.”

    “So?” Maggie said.

    Robin stared at her, and then shook his head. “I miss my Uncle Kermit.” Robin said bitterly.

    “I know, Rob! I miss Mit too! I know you are sad, but he taught us a song to remember just in case anyone was no longer with us.

    It’s in every one of us
    To be wise
    Find your heart
    Open up both your eyes
    We can all know everything
    Without ever knowing why

    It’s in every one of us
    By and by

    “Rob, now you try.”

    It’s in every one of us
    To be wise
    Find your heart
    Open up both your eyes
    We can all know everything
    Without ever knowing why (Robin sang)

    It’s in every one of us
    By and by
    By and by (Robin and Mags sang in harmony)

    “Rob,” Mags said sniffling. “I told to go out somewhere, but I was wrong. Whenever you go out there, everything does remind you of Kermit and Jim, right?”

    Robin nodded.

    “Well, since we’re frogs, it is not easy being green. When the right day comes, you and your Uncle Kermit will go out there and continue, but right now, that death that hit my brother really hard….that was hard for Mit. It was hard for my brother to look after Jim. I hope what Mit is doing is the right thing to do until he has the right time to come back and see us again.

    Robin was thinking for a moment if his Uncle Kermit came back, they would hang out together again with his brothers and sisters.

    “By the way, Rob, it’s getting late, you need some beauty sleep.”

    Robin nodded and finally got out of the Lonely Log by hugging his sister believing that everything might be okay. He understood his uncle was going through a long grievance for a while. Maybe Kermit found out that once Jim was sick, he knew there would be more bad news than good news. He heard that Kermit did get a headache one day and then, once Jim was gone, that was it. The frog was not in pain, but more like in grief to lose his friend that was also a leader.

    Now how on earth do you know I enjoy solitude?! But FYI, I don't shut doors in people's faces.

    In the next chapter, Vincent finds out that shutting the door in Dom's face was a bad idea. He did it by accident and didn't mean to, 'cause he was too tired to stay much. I will make sure that gets fized. Thank you for your comments.

    Did you like the Robin scene with Mags? BTW: I imagine my Maggie would have short brown hair, little nice eyelashes since she is a female forg, and she has a sweet side, but instead of being mad at Mit, she gets worried about her brother. Wondering if he ever comes back.

    Well, there has been a slight change of plans. I can't post another chapter til Sunday of next week. So, I can't be on MC for a while every day. My mom wants me to focus on other things including family-related and stuff.

    Oh, I'm glad you liked the second and last part of the chapter. That took me forever! Duh!
