This morning, Yvonne Yea-Low was outside the house at 9 Yea-Low Ring, when she thought she saw something moving in the grass. She walked closer, and eeek, wasn't that one of those black beetles!? The evil creatures she found on the Norther Beach of the little island, brought to Maccaroni, and eventually set free up north, not far from the mine? She felt the shiver, she didn't like to see this thing at all, this close to their home!
When she turned, there was 3 more near the bathroom door! Were they invading the island? This couldn't possibly be the same beetle she set free up north?
Over at 5 Redward Heights, Christopher and Bella juast arrived the house of Christopher's parents. Rita was in there, probably Roger, too. It was time to face the hard facts! Yesterday Bella told Christopher that she could not see their future unless he talked to his parents.
The door was opened by Rita Redward. While Christopher knew he had nothing to lose, his mom looked rather surprised, but didn't take long to catch up.
Rita and Roger had previously instructed their run-away son to stay away from the Blumingtons. Unsuccessfully, it seemed.
Poor guy. I just realized he got way less than Joe Hawk!!!
So, Bella and Christopher left. They didn't want to stay anyway.
Alex Yea-Low built a sweet little home at 1 Sunrise Valley. It's located in the eastern region, not far from the bridge. Dorothy moved in with him this morning, and in a few hours their wedding will be on.
They made it clear that they wanted the guests to wear casual attire, but the main persons were of course a little more formal....
First it was shocking to see Alex' sister, Agnes, bhuu'ing at the bride and groom, but to her defense it might just have been that they were not dressed according to the invitation. Any way, Agnes could of course just be very weird. After all it was her very first wedding party.
The following party was - well, a bit lame. Dorothy found herself surrounded by weird actions. Her twin sister Constance suddenly gave flowers to Alex' dad, elderly Yespar Yea-Low, and her brother Randal tried to attack himself, unsuccessfully. Also Alex seems to be hoping the party would soon be over...
There was no food serving, and the new house doesn't really offer lots of activities either. Everyone understood that the wedding was over as soon as they had exchanged the rings. Dorothy had a chat with her mother-in-law, Yvonne.
That's right, all the Yea-Low children are in need of glasses. But they have to manage without.
Rita Redward thought it was a terrible idea to end the party just like that. She invited anyone who felt like some more partying, to join her at Redward Heights. Dorothy and Alex didn't really want that, but what can you do when you are in the center of the event? A handful of the guests joined, too.
Yesterday, Constance had invited Jess Greench to stop by after the wedding. They whispered to keep a low profile...
Don't be surprised, Constance! It might even be a good thing - and you do own the neighbouring lot!
Roger Redward surely had some business to take care of. He had walked up to the Warehouse, but the fisherman son, Albert Blumington, was in the area. Roger hid behind the building, waiting. There... the boy walked over to the shed to place a something valued §50, and left. That something was the pay for using the Warehouse facilities for one day. Roger was somehow in charge of this place, he had this brilliant idea...
... he made sure that nobody saw him, then walked over to the shed. He picked up the items, instead of handing them to the community, he would bring them home or even selling them for money at the Consignment store. But first...
... Roger called Joe Hawk. How convenient would it be if someone saw Joe Hawk outside the Warehouse at the time these items were removed?
Roger had to smile, tomorrow he could arrange it even wiser, by also inviting someone over to actually see Joe Hawk lurking in the area.
It was late, and Yvonne was rightfully grounding Agnes.
Yvonne felt she might have overreacted a little. She tried to calm down, but was about to explode.
Yvonne had been dealing with this for a long time. Lately, she tried to forget about the creatures, the voice, and how she walked up north in trance back when she was pregnant with Agnes. Now she even understood, "Hard to let go... belly belly". Or was it all just imagination? This all might look a bit weird, but all along Yvonne had hoped that Agnes should not be involved. Now proven wrong.
More in 2 more days!
Note: If you think Yvonne's last actions were staged, you are wrong! It was rather shocking to see a mom banging on her daughter with her cane, but it obviously can happen on free will.
Oooo those sneaky & mean Redwards! I'm behind my monitor cheering for Christopher and Constance. I'm very curious now about Constance & Jess - they are SO cute together and will have adorably chubby babies if they pair up. I don't think Agnes is that bad looking, her facial expression aside. there's always hope that her looks & this curse will only improve as she gets older. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteHi Mietze! Smiling at you cheering :D Well, now that Constance moves out, anything can happen, unless her mom keeps controlling it all from the next door house. I'm curious about the curse, too, because I really don't know where it will go from here, lol. It's not a good thing, though...
