*inhales*
Ahhh, fresh air and a new morning. I heard birds singing and it feels great to be alive.
*alarm goes off*
Oh cool, it's time for the geek festival in the city. I'm supposed to be meeting Gunther there. I guess I better get going.
Gunther: Over here Nick.
Hey Gunther, I'll catch up in a few. I'm gonna grab a bite a to eat.
Zoey: What can I get you?
Do you have veggie burgers?
Zoey: What is it with you nature freaks? Always eating that gross food? Fine, here you go.
Wow, she was sorta rude. I guess she doesn't like her job.
*Get your survivors here, t shirts, globes fireworks.*
That voice sounds familiar. *heart races*
Phoebe: Oh Nick right?
Yes, you remember me?
Phoebe: Why of course I do. It's good to see you again. I hope you are having fun.
My day just got a lot better Thanks.
I was eating my lunch and found myself sitting between a grim reaper and Darth maul. It looked pretty intense.
The reaper lady left and I was left with Darth. He wasn't much into talking. I was still trying to wrap my head around all these people into this Comic Con stuff. I seemed useless to me.
I walked around and found Gunther by the video games and joined him for some much needed fun. I was getting stressed out and needed some time out.
Gunther: Oh I'm the best bowler in the game. Good luck beating Nick.
Hmm, whatever, put up or shut up.
Don't be a sore loser Munch. Your the one that said you were the best.
Gunther: I'm just gonna pretend I didn't hear that and walk away now.
I left and found myself in another part of Willow Creek looking for collectibles. I was feeling hungry again and started the grill.
Tonight I was in the mood for some grilled fruit. It smelled great.
Not only that, it looked delicious. My mouth was watering.
*walking towards hedges*
Hey Malcolm. Why so gloom?
Malcolm: *Sighs* Oh hey Nick, Oh it's just family crap.
Well I know from experience that it helps to talk about it sometimes.
Malcolm: Well you see, I have a older brother and well, he's was disowned. For following his own dreams. *sighs*
Well, that doesn't sound right, he should have been encouraged.
Malcolm: *laughs* Not in my family. You either go into the family business or you help with my dads family business, you have no choice.
Malcolm: Tonight I was telling my parents I wanted to follow my own dreams and they hit the roof. Threatened to disown me just like Johnny.
Well, That's just wrong. I hope things work out for you soon. Stand you ground and don't let anyone push you into something you don't want to do.
Malcolm: *sobs* I wish it was that easy.
Malcolm: Well I'm gonna let you get back to your dinner. I'll see you around man.
Look, just take it one day at a time.
Poor kid, his parents sound like jerks. I hope he can work things out.
Now to get these plants planted. I can't wait to see how my garden starts to turn out.
I can't wait to find that dragon fruit or find out how to graft it.
