For some reason, I'm having very little inspiration for round 2 of P Fab. It's such a broad topic, there's so much I could do...but how to be original and inventive? I'm drawing a blank...or more like I have two ideas: one is simple the other more complicated (not sure I could even pull it off really, the more I think about it). So I did a photo shoot for my simpler idea thinking I could use a photo from it as a back up in case the more complicated idea doesn't work out. However, the more I look at it, the more I really like how it turned out so now I'm trying to decide if I should just skip the more complicated idea and use the simple photo, hoping it's good enough, or should I still at least make the attempt at complicated idea knowing that it might totally fail and at least I have a back up I like?
Heh...while I contemplate this minor dilemma of mine, please read and enjoy the next chapter of "House of Pullip" :P
Chapter 80:
Shiloh: *fidgets, sighs*
Roxanne: There’s Shiloh. Ah, she’s alone…again.
Wolfgang: Again?
Roxanne: She’s been there every day this week alone…I’m starting to get worried about her.
Wolfgang: Doesn’t she spend a lot of time with Hawk?
Roxanne: That’s why I’m worried, he’s usually with her, but lately he hasn’t been around. I wonder if something is going on.
Wolfgang: Why don’t we invite her out for ice cream with us?
Roxanne: That’s a good idea, come on.
*Roxanne and Wolfgang approach Shiloh, she looks up eagerly*
Shiloh: Oh…it’s you…hi, guys.
Roxanne: Were you…expecting someone else?
Shiloh: Erm…well…yes. But I am glad to see you.
Shiloh: *looks away, obviously depressed*
*Roxanne and Wolfgang exchange worried glances*
*Roxanne and Wolfgang sit by Shiloh*
Roxanne: Shiloh, are you okay? You seem so sad…
Shiloh: I’m fine.
Roxanne: Where is Hawk?
Shiloh: *sigh* I don’t know.
*Roxanne takes Shiloh’s hand*
Roxanne: I’m sorry.
Shiloh: *can no longer resist the urge to unload her feelings* I wish I knew where he was…I’ve been waiting for him, but he hasn’t come. We were supposed to go rock climbing but he didn’t show up. I…I think I’ve done something wrong to drive him off…but I don’t know what.
Roxanne: I’m sure you haven’t done anything! There must be some kind of explanation. Maybe you’ll see him at the ball and you can find out what’s going on.
Shiloh: Oh…the ball…I don’t know if I want to go or not.
Roxanne: Why not? You should come; it looks like it’s going to be fun.
Shiloh: I…was…hoping Hawk might ask me to go…
Roxanne: You’re disappointed?
Shiloh: A little…I mean he hasn’t been around so maybe he doesn’t know about it, or maybe he doesn’t like to dance…maybe I’m expecting too much. *sigh*
Roxanne: I wish I knew how to help, I’m just sorry you are sad.
Wolfgang: *clears throat* Uh, we were on our way to get some ice cream…would you like to come with us?
Shiloh: Oh, that’s nice of you. But I don’t know…
Roxanne: Come on, it might cheer you up and help take your mind off…other things.
Shiloh: I would just be in your way, you know, a third wheel.
Roxanne: That’s not true.
Wolfgang: I wouldn’t have asked you to come if I didn’t mean it.
Shiloh: Okay…thanks…it would be nice to get out and do something.
Roxanne: Great! Let’s go then.
To be continued...
The ball portion of the story is coming up next, lots of stuff will be going on so stayed tuned for that! :D
