Here is the newest chapter of "House of Pullip" (finally...sorry for the delay and not having as many chapter as usual this week...as I said before, it's just been one of those weeks and if I have time I will try to do another chapter tomorrow but no promises).
Chapter 331: No Regrets
Jonas: Grace?
Grace: Jonas, there you are. I was just coming to look for you.
*Jonas takes Grace’s hand but doesn’t say anything*
Grace: Your hand is trembling…
Jonas: *laughs nervously* I’m…scared.
Grace: Scared? Why?
Jonas: I’ve been thinking a lot about the things you said the last time we talked.
Grace: I thought you might.
Jonas: And I figured something out…
Jonas: I…I can’t give you what you want.
*Grace drops his hand and looks away*
Jonas: I want you to know I tried, I really did. I even went to get you an engagement ring. I saw one that I knew you would love and I imagined giving it to you.
Jonas: But I couldn’t do it. As much as I want to make you happy that way, I’m just not ready.
Grace: If not now, then when?
Jonas: I don’t know.
Jonas: I know you are disappointed with me…I’m disappointed with myself.
Grace: I won’t lie, I am disappointed…but not with you so much, just in the situation. I really wanted this to work out.
Jonas: But it still can work out. I do love you, Grace, you have to believe me. There’s no reason we can’t be together still.
Grace: But I’m ready for something more, I can’t just stay stagnant. I really think we should spend some time apart and maybe see if we can’t each find someone we are more…compatible with.
Jonas: I can’t believe you want to break up. Don’t you love me?
Grace: Of course I love you! You don’t understand how hard this is for me…please don’t make it harder! Is it really fair to ask me to wait indefinitely for you to take that next step? That’s what you are asking me to do…and I can’t. Neither of us can give each other what we need, can’t you see that?
Jonas: *defeated* Yes…I guess I can see that. And no, it’s not fair.
Grace: I’m sorry…don’t you think for a second that I’m enjoying any of this. The last thing I want is to get rid of you. I’m only trying to do what I think is best…for both of us. I need to move on and you need to find someone who wants the same thing you want.
Jonas: Grace…please…
Grace: *holding back tears* No…don’t say anything else, I can’t stand it.
*Grace suddenly embraces Jonas*
Grace: Thank you for loving me…I don’t regret any of the time we spent together.
Jonas: I don’t know what I’m going to do without you.
Grace: *sniff* Jonas, you are stronger then you give yourself credit for…you’ll find a way…I know it…
Jonas: What are you going to do now?
Grace: I don’t know…I really don’t…I have to go now…
*Grace runs off, Jonas can hear her sobbing*
Jonas: Grace…
To be continued...
This was a hard chapter to write...and depressing. I feel like Grace, I take no joy in any of this, but I think it's for the best...for now, anyway. I have a few ideas about what Grace and Jonas might do next, but there is also the possibility they might get back together, I'm just not sure. I thought they made a good match, but they were stagnant and weren't going anywhere, I want to explore the possibility of making better matches for them. ;) By the way, Jonas was "scared" because I think he knew what was coming...just to clear that up.
I have been wanting to sew some new clothes for Penelope for ages, but for some reason it is really challenging to get it right for her. Anyway, after many tries I finally had some success today, here is the outfit I came up with today:
The shirt was originally intended to be a dress but it turned out rather shorter then I meant... :P So I made it a shirt instead and made a little pair of bloomers (that turned out really nice on my first try) to go with it. She is also wearing a pair of her new shoes I bought off Ebay so she can stand by herself (I also got a black pair, a blue pair, and a pink pair). The back of the shirt needs a little work, but that's okay, it's still way better then anything else I've tried to make for her...so yay! Let me know what you think. :D
