Photo Story

Feb 03, 2008 16:23

My camera is ticking me off. Lately it has just been overexposing every single stupid photo and it's driving me nuts. I thought maybe I'd accidentally changed some setting or something, but no, it all looks perfectly normal. I don't know what's up with it but I hope I figure out soon how to compensate because I think my photos lately have been looking like crap and that's disappointing. Blah.
Anyway, here is the next chapter of "House of Pullip". Never mind how the photos look, I tried my best, I hope you enjoy it anyway! :D


Chapter 141: Can't Love



Bo: I see you aren’t above eavesdropping.
Sabrina: *shrugs* Maybe not, but what I heard explains a few things.
Bo: I would have told you eventually what was going on between me and Nicholai if you had just been more patient.



Sabrina: Never mind that, what I want to know if why you don’t love him?
Bo: You weren’t listening very well…it’s not about do or don’t, it’s about can or can’t…and I can’t love.
Sabrina: Why not?



Bo: I don’t have the ability to love. I told you before; I’m a spirit in human form. I’m here as an observer and teacher, I’m not here to fall in love, so love is not an ability I’ve been given. I can feel certain lesser emotions, but love…



Sabrina: Now wait just one minute…how are you supposed to help me find a man if you don’t know about love?!?
Bo: First of all, I said I can’t love, not that I don’t know about it. Be assured I know plenty. Second, I never promised I’d help you find a man, remember? My main goal is help you learn to be a better person. If you fall in love with a man along the way…well, that will just be a nice bonus, won’t it?



Sabrina: *mutters unintelligibly, is unable to think of a reply to this*
Bo: Trust me. This isn’t the first time of done this and it won’t be the last either. Please?
Sabrina: Whatever.



Bo: So let’s get on with it? How did it go with Ivy? I saw you had a bit of a rough start…and then I got…distracted…
Sabrina: It went fine, I guess.
Bo: Good. I see she didn’t hate you when she left so that’s a good sign…and speaking of making friends I think there is someone else who wouldn’t mind getting to know you…
Sabrina: Huh?



*Bo indicates Zander standing nearby*
Sabrina: Him again?
Bo: He’s very interested in meeting you.
Sabrina: *raises eyebrows* Really?
Bo: Calm your hormones. Focus on forming a friendship…okay? Just…be nice.



*Zander approaches*
Zander: Hi.
Sabrina: Hi there…you’re cute.
Zander: Uh…thanks!
Bo: *clears throat* Ahem.
Sabrina: I mean…uh…I’m Sabrina, who are you?



Zander: I’m Zander. It’s very nice to meet you. *smiles*
Sabrina: I’d rather call you “Red”, is that okay?
Zander: Er…Red?
Sabrina: Your hair…?
Zander: Oh…oh…yeah, that’s fine.



Sabrina: *smiles*
Zander: Uh…I’d really like to get to know you better. Do you want to…hang out…or something?
Sabrina: I’d love to but now isn’t a good time. Maybe tomorrow?



Zander: Sure…I’ll see you then.
Sabrina: Bye…Red. *smiles again*
Zander: *gulp* Bye…



Zander: Whoa…

To be continued...

I hope that explains a little bit about Bo. Don't worry about it too much, it's not really an important factor of the story, just a little bit about why Nicholai followed her and why she doesn't want him the way he wants her. Bo is happy, she doesn't know any different. :D Thanks, as always, for reading!
