Photo Story
I took the photos for this new chapter of "House of Pullip" but I'm only just now getting the time to post this up. Sorry about that, but it's been one of those days. :P Anyway, enjoy this chapter and let's hope tomorrow is better. :D
Chapter 135: Getting to Know You
*Kiki and Ronan have been working together making plans for Roxanne and Wolfgang’s wedding*
Ronan: You have some very wonderful ideas, Miss Kiki. I’m so glad we are working together on this.
Kiki: Thank you, but don’t give me all the credit. This menu you came up with is going to be delicious so your ideas are just as good.
Ronan: Tell me about yourself, Miss Kiki.
Kiki: Oh…well…what would you like to know?
Ronan: I just want to know you better. Tell me anything…like how you became so talented at what you do.
Kiki: My grandmother raised me. She was a wonderful baker and she taught me everything she knew so it made sense when I was old enough to open a store that it would be a bakery, well it was a cookie shop actually.
Ronan: *smiles*
Kiki: Everyone likes cookies so all types of people would come into my shop to buy them. I made a lot of business friends in different fields so when I wanted to branch out beyond cookies I knew who to call for help.
Ronan: I see.
Kiki: That’s really all there is to how to do what I do…I just know who to contact for what I want.
Ronan: You must be interested in many things to be able to do all of this.
Kiki: Yes, but sometimes I wish I could focus on one thing at a time. I get overwhelmed every now and then because I like to do too many things. *smiles sheepishly*
Ronan: That’s better then being idle though.
Kiki: I suppose so. I am never bored so that must be a good thing.
Kiki: What about you? Tell me about you…I would really like to know you better. Where did you learn to be such a gentleman?
Ronan: I used to work as a personal valet for a prince.
Kiki: A prince…really?
Ronan: I know it sounds unusual, but I assure you I am telling the truth.
Kiki: Oh, I believe you…but yes, it is unusual. Tell me more.
Ronan: Just a warning, it does get more unusual so don’t be alarmed.
Kiki: *nods and is eager to hear more*
Ronan: I was raised to serve the royal family in the kingdom I am from. When I was old enough I was sent to the castle to serve the prince.
Kiki: Of course you would have to be a gentleman to do a job like that.
Ronan: Yes, Miss. The kingdom I am from is very old fashioned, for the most part.
Kiki: Where is it? Maybe I’ve heard of it…
Ronan: That is unlikely, the kingdom is hidden.
Kiki: Hidden…why?
Ronan: It is a kingdom of sorcerers and enchantresses.
Kiki: Magic? Really? Then that means you…
Ronan: I am a sorcerer.
Kiki: …
Ronan: *worried* Have I frightened you?
Kiki: No…it’s just, like you said, very unusual. But I’m okay. I have a question though…
Ronan: Please.
Kiki: If you can do magic what do you need me for? Shouldn’t you be able to just put all this wedding stuff together…like that? *snaps her fingers*
Ronan: Magic can be very helpful, but it does not do everything. There is no replacement for hard work. There is also no substitute for the companionship you can find with another person.
Kiki: *smiles*
Ronan: We make a good team, Miss Kiki, I am very pleased with our work together.
Kiki: So am I.
Ronan: I don’t think I could do this without you…please don’t forget that.
Kiki: *nods* Okay.
Ronan: Shall we return to our work?
Kiki: Yes.
To be continued...
Heh, I suppose Kiki needs some chairs in her store so they don't have to sit on the floor...? :P
Also, it's another one of those "boring" non-action chapters. However, there are some very subtle things going on here that are important for later so... ;)
