When I said, “The end doesn’t exist,” [the end.] [3]

Don't you see? The end doesn't exist because this story is so amazing. So, Estrielle went to dinner at Taco Ball. It was quite the amazing dinner, after all, it was Taco Ball. But all Read and Estree ate was pizza, because they couldn't read the rest of the menu, because it was in Spanish. Luckily, Estrielle had her snazzy little instant-Google-translator at hand so she could easily read what toppings she wanted on the pizza. As a sort of entrée, Read managed to have Taco Ball serve pudding and pizza flavored goldfish. Then they left and walked home. And Read said he knew a short cut. Estrielle was utterly confused, especially since he said that he knew a shortcut. Hadn't he just gotten here today? How could he possibly know a shortcut? He's going to get us lost! Gr... thought Estree.


So they walked. And walked. And walked. And finally he stopped walking. And simply sat on the concrete trail pathway thing. Estrielle, who was wearing a very non-too-expensive dress, just stood there. He patted the concrete right next to him, indicating where she should sit. Estree just sighed, and started up the way they had come, except now the pathway was a little too dark for seeing. Simply Read called back, "Wait, come back here. You can sit on my coat. I want to show you something." So Estrielle trudged back, nearly tripping on a stick. This night was not at all what she thought it would be. Why did I wear flip flops? Oh, that's right, Ava said that it'd be cool and look good. Why did I ever listen to Avariella? She's the one who just left …Ellipsis. She's such a goofball, thought Estree. This thought made everyone smile.


Sitting by Read in the dark might seem cool, or mysterious. But somehow it appeared down-right creepy. And then slowly it became less creepy as her eyes adjusted to the light. Then Read said, "I have a gift for you, but its best looked at under the beautiful night sky in a natural environment. This was the first place I found on Google Maps that led me to your house, and was in a natural-er area."


    Estrielle didn't know what to say to all that. At first she wondered what the gift was. Then she questioned what kind of gift looked best under the night sky, then she thought how nerdy Read is to go on Google Maps but that was why she liked him [sorta]. So Estree didn't say anything at all and waited and waited. Finally Read pulled out of his pocket, a single piece of candy. She was utterly confused, as everyone should be. Then he stood up and helped Estrielle up. He didn't say a word, but led her down the path back to her house. She never opened the gift, and Read never asked her to. When they got back, Read said that she must have a good night, and that he would see her tomorrow.


She walked into the door, carrying her flip flops. She chucked them onto the ground, threw her coat on the couch and started to ballerina dance/ break dance/ salsa, all the way to her bedroom. But first she had to update her status. So, as always, she came up with something clever. Almost as non-clever as Clever Bot. [Don't worry, if you don't think about it, it makes sense. And if it still doesn't make sense: Clever Bot is not clever. Being non-clever as a not-clever Clever-Bot is brilliant, basically saying, she's clever]. So she wrote: Surprise visit, silly friend, had a ball, walk down mystic-y trail, and a single candy bar, Oh my! Then she went back outside to her backyard, laid on her trampoline in jeans and a sweatshirt, and stared up at the clear night sky. She finally opened the candy bar to see that there was no candy, but a bracelet. A bracelet with little charms. And there were only 5 charms on the bracelet. They portrayed: a moon, one with the words hahaha, one that said Estrielle, one with a music note, and one with a heart.


A folded up piece of paper was also in where the candy bar should've been. It read: the moon for your dreams, because you are a dreamer, 'hahaha' for your silly-ness and your silly friends [*cough* *cough* *Avariella* *cough* *cough* *the rest of Estree's friendsJ*], 'Estrielle' so that you never lose the bracelet, and that if you ever do, they can return it to you, a music note for your love of music, a heart for me and you, and so that you always stay true to yourself!:) –Read


    Estrielle just smiled. Then listened to her MP3 player and fell asleep. Then the next thing she knew, she was in her bed, listening to Blizzard of '89, and there was extreme snow outside. Today was definitely a snow day. It was so Colorado of the weather. Even though it was only the beginning of the last month in Fall. So Avariella, Estrielle, …Ellipsis, and Read went ice skating, got hot chocolate, had a snowball fight, made the ultimate snow forts, and snow angels. Then went to King Soopers and performed their cover of Those Songs [wink wink]. Exhausted, they went and saw a movie. No, they went and saw the ultimate best movie that they could've ever imagined, with Narwhals, guy tripping to Alaska ;) , playing hide-and-seek in a library. Funnier thing, they ran into Marcos and his girlfriend. Then they all left and had yet another snowball fight. Then they jumped into a pool, fully dressed in boots, snow coat, gloves, hats, and scarves. But the most amazing part, was when a narwhal swam with them. Then they all dried off with those portable-mini fans that you take on road trips in the summer. Then they went to target. Yeah. Target, man. And then they all went bowling because they were all still 'slightly' wet from jumping into a pool and stuff. It was a great day. And it was barely December yet. In fact, I think it was…around November. Well, I guess that's Colorado for you. But honestly? Winter would be a wonderland in the Midwest.


FYI: Yeah, I think I skipped Fall and half of Summer. But maybe the story should just begin in a new scenery. Comment if you think I should write what happened in the Fall and rest of Summer. Unless it makes sense that it was always during the Winter that this whole thing happened. Well, either way, pretend its winter.

When I said, "The end doesn't exist. [The end]." What I am really trying to explain is that the transition just sort of happens between Summer, Fall, and Winter. Except we are mostly still in Fall when this part of the story happens. But we talk about winter because Fall didn't really happen, there's no extreme seasonal thing for Fall except for the leaves, so all you have to say is that it feels like winter/seasonal spirit already! I hope this clears this all up!

Or, to avoid writing about what happened in the beginning of Fall and Summer, I could just say, Nothing truly happened. They were all too busy with school. [Do good in school!]
