I've got the newest chapter of "House of Pullip" ready for today, please enjoy! :D
Chapter 308: The Store
*Felix enters “The Sweet Shoppe”
Felix: Hi, Taryn.
Taryn: Oh…Felix…what are you…I mean, can I help you?
Kiki: *thinking to herself* Felix? Oh…THAT Felix…!
Felix: I just wanted to see you, Taryn. I hope that’s okay.
Taryn: Uh, sure…I think. Kiki?
Kiki: I don’t mind.
Taryn: Oh…Felix, this is Kiki. She’s my boss...and my friend.
Kiki: Nice to meet you.
Felix: Nice to meet you, too. I know Taryn really likes working here.
*Taryn blushes, but smiles*
Kiki: I’ll just…er…go over here so you guys can chat.
Taryn: Um, it’s nice to see you. Are you sure I can’t get you something. A cookie maybe?
Felix: No, but thanks. The store looks great, by the way.
Taryn: Oh…thank you. We finally got it all done just the other day.
Felix: It looks just like that sketch you made. Speaking of which… *he hands her a piece of paper*
Taryn: *takes the paper* Oh, it’s my design sketch! I’ve been wondering where it went, where did you find it?
Felix: You left it behind the last time I saw you.
Taryn: Oh…right… *blushes and cringes thinking of their last conversation*
Felix: How did you finish the store without it? Did you make a new sketch?
Taryn: No, we worked off memory.
Felix: Wow…that’s good.
*Taryn smiles*
Felix: I guess I should go. It was nice seeing you, Taryn.
Taryn: Oh, go don’t yet! You know…I, uh…have something I should give you, too.
Felix: *confused* You do?
*Taryn picks up her purse from behind the counter and pulls something out*
Taryn: I found this and I know it belongs to you. I think I should give it back.
Felix: Oh yeah, one of my songs. I meant to throw this away.
Taryn: I found it on the ground outside the house.
Felix: This song was not going well.
Taryn: You shouldn’t throw it away; you might be able to use parts of it later for another song. I never throw any of my sketches away; even if I think they are crap…sometimes I get ideas from them later to draw something better.
Felix: Yeah, you’re probably right.
Taryn: Sorry, I’m not trying to tell you what to do.
Felix: No, it’s okay! You’ve been doing this longer then me so I can use the good advice. I’ll keep the music…even if I’d rather tear it up.
*Taryn laughs*
*Taryn and Felix smile at each other*
Felix: Taryn…
Taryn: I know, you probably need to go.
Felix: No, it’s not that. I wanted to know if you’d like to go to dinner with me?
*Taryn is surprised*
Taryn: I thought…I mean, you told me there was someone else.
Felix: *shakes his head* No. There’s no one else any more.
Taryn: I’m sorry…
Felix: Don’t be. I’d like to take you out if you’ll go.
Taryn: *smiles* Felix, I’d love to!
Felix: *smiles back and is relieved* Great!
Taryn: Thank you for asking me.
*They make arrangements to meet another day for their date*
*Felix leaves*
Kiki: Well done.
Taryn: *breathless* That did really just happen, right? I didn’t imagine it?
Kiki: No, he asked you out.
Taryn: Oh, I can’t wait!
To be continued...
Felix didn't necessarily go there to ask Taryn out...but he decided to just go for it and ask. As expected, Taryn is thrilled. Also...check out the new design of the store. :D
Here is a better photo showing more details of the new store design, take a look:
I made a new wall using pretty pink wrapping paper for "wallpaper", along with some other details (a ribbon as a white horizontal stripe and some Re-ment flyers as wall decorations). Then I painted the wooden back display white and used a bunch of my new Re-ment to add more substance/details to the front display. I think Kiki approves! :P
I updated my Wreck This Journal Flickr set with six new photos so you can check those out if you are interested.
This was fun but it took forever. :P Anyway, my poor hands are now really sore from all the drawing I've been doing on this book, I think I need a break. I now have my journal ready to put in the mail...see, the back cover says "Tape this journal shut and mail it to yourself" and there another page inside that says "have a friend do something destructive to this page, don't look". So herroyaldemones had a great idea that we could mail our journals to each other, "wreck" the page inside, and then mail them back. :P I thought that sounded fun so off it goes. When I get it comes back there will be more photos of the destruction...heh.
