LJ is annoying me today. Every time I come here and then try to navigate a link or leave to an entirely different website it freezes my browser. It has not happened at any other time, only when I'm here on LJ. I don't get it...
Anyway, let's hope I can get this new chapter of "House of Pullip" posted. If I can (and I'm assuming if you are reading this I was successful) I hope you enjoy it. :D
Chapter 395: New Roads
Bo: Are you going to be okay here without me?
*Reilly looks worried*
Bo: I need to go talk to someone but I promise to come back. Everyone here is really nice; you’ll have a lot of fun.
Bo: Here, this is Oki…you’ll love her.
Oki: Oh, you must be Reilly! Bo told me all about you. You are going to have so much fun with us today. Come on, I’ll introduce you to the other kids. *She holds out her hand*
Bo: Go ahead, sweetie. I’ll be back soon and then I’ll take you to meet someone special.
Elsewhere…
Alex: Hey, Wolfgang! What’s up?
Wolfgang: Nothing. I just took Bailey to preschool and now I’m going to work.
Alex: Having any luck yet?
Wolfgang: Luck?
Alex: With the dating deal we made…remember?
Wolfgang: *looking worried* Uh…well…I haven’t been doing that well. I mean…I haven’t done anything.
Alex: *laughs* Don’t worry, I haven’t done anything either.
*Wolfgang looks relieved*
Alex: But we need to get our acts together.
Wolfgang: Yes…I’ll try.
Alex: I know it’s hard, but it will happen. I never said we had to rush.
*Wolfgang nods*
Alex: You better get to work, we’ll talk more later.
Alex: *thinking to himself* It’ll work out…I know it. I know it’s hard for him, but it’s for the best. Even Roxanne would say so. She’d be telling me now to get back out there…shoving me out the door. Maybe if Wolfgang sees me having some success he’ll feel more confident…but there just aren’t any girls around here for me anymore. Hmmm…there’s something else I could try…but I don’t know. Still, I need to do something…
Meanwhile…
*Ivy and Laszlo are out walking*
*Laszlo suddenly stops walking*
Ivy: What’s the matter?
*Laszlo doesn’t respond and Ivy looks where he is looking*
Ivy: Not that again.
Laszlo: Ivy…
Ivy: Come on, let’s walk on.
*Laszlo reluctantly lets Ivy lead him away*
Ivy: I still don’t understand why you still get that upset seeing Felix.
Laszlo: I don’t want to talk about it.
*Ivy gives him a look*
Laszlo: Right…I told you to be hard-nosed with me, didn’t I?
Laszlo: *sigh* I don’t know…I don’t want to be so angry all the time.
Ivy: Think about Madeline instead.
Laszlo: Madeline…why?
Ivy: Well, tell me how you feel about her.
Laszlo: Madeline…since I don’t have kids of my own, she’s the one I live for. I’d do anything for her.
Ivy: I thought so…so try this, when you see Felix you need to think of him as Madeline’s dad. For Madeline’s sake, shouldn’t you be kind to her dad and try to get along with him?
Ivy: Felix is a good dad, isn’t he?
Laszlo: *reluctantly* Yeah…yeah, he is.
Ivy: It’s somewhere to start…do it for Madeline. She’s just a kid and she needs her uncle to be happy.
Laszlo: You’re right, that is somewhere to start. I can already feel that I’m relaxing…a little…I’ll work on it.
Ivy: You better.
To be continued...
What kid wouldn't warm up to Oki? I mean, Reilly is going through some tough stuff for a little kid right now, but Oki can make anyone happy (that's why Bo took her to the preschool, she knew it would be good for Reilly).
Isn't Wolfgang just so cute? He's always been special to me and a favorite. Don't worry, he'll find someone new eventually when he's good and ready...no rush. Alex does indeed have an idea for himself on how to meet someone knew which we'll get to soon. ;)
As for Laszlo...Ivy's got some good ideas for him, don't you think?
Bonus Photo:
I made Greta a new dress she can wear with her red tights. :D And Allison, I have the "minion" dress for Lati yellow that matches finished as well, will take photos of that tomorrow...Greta just doesn't know it's a minion dress. :P
