The rain had started to let up, and Gerald wandered into the woods. He found Poser sitting around the remains of Paintball
Forest.
"Poser?" Gerald spoke softly.
Poser started to get up.
"No,
please stay" Gerald said.
Poser looked scared. "Wh- what do you want from me?" he stuttered.
"I'm
sorry" Gerald said. "And I forgive you like everyone else has"
Poser looked confused.
"I
won't hurt you" Gerald said. "I promise"
Poser was skeptical.
"Let me drive
you home" Gerald said.
"My car is in your driveway" Poser said quietly. "Thanks, though"
He
walked out of the woods, got in his car, and drove home.
Gerald walked back in the house.
"What
happened?" Karen asked.
"Poser and I are cool now, I think" Gerald said. "I've gotta go see Pixie"
He
walked upstairs, and found Pixie laying on her bed with London.
"Hey, Honey" he said. "I had a talk with Poser.
We're okay now"
"What?" Pixie asked. "For real?"
"Yes, for real" Gerald
replied. "I'm sorry for what I put you guys through"
"Dad" Pixie said. "Meet your grand daughter,
London Nicole"
Gerald smiled. "She's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful"
He picked London
up and hugged her.
A few days later, there was a knock at Strawberry's door.
She
opened the door to find a very cute boy standing there.
"Uh, hi" she said.
"Hey" the dude
said. "Are you Strawberry?"
"Yes... and who are you?"
"I'm Popcorn" he said.
"I'm a friend of Tostito & Orange Kiwi"
"Oh, cool" Strawberry said.
"Tostito
sent me over here to see if you wanted to chill at his place for awhile"
"Sure, I'd love to" Strawberry
smiled.
