"One question" said Muffins. "Do you still have that ring I got you last year?"

"Yes I do" said Strawberry. "It's upstairs in my room. I just don't wear it anymore"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjblkI9nUBZ
Muffins smiled a half smile. "Oh, cool" he said. "I guess"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0lFHvKWoK
"Are you okay?" Strawberry asked.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FphkGBN1V
"Yeah, I'm fine" said Muffins. "I've just really been missing you"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD0YQWVn2a
"I'm sorry" said Strawberry. "Look, we're still friends"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ15EVN3xo
"That's good and all" said Muffins. "But just answer me this- Do you miss me?"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrrA0xQeof
"Yes, Muffins" said Strawberry. "I do miss you"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnD2fo21st
"Alright" said Muffins. "As long as I know you miss me too" he hugged her. "I guess you & Frosty can go back to what you were doing" he said. "Bye, Strawberry. We've gotta hang out soon"
He walked back upstairs, and drove back home.

"Oh em gee!" Banana came running down the stairs. Frosty followed her.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrqLGHkyou
"What?" asked Strawberry.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5epxqL5X42
"I just got this letter in the mail" Banana held up an envelope. "The return address says Thailand"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfOiVIg0CP
"Ib sent you something?" Strawberry asked.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexKnX6AacX
Banana opened the envelope, and read the letter. "Banana- How are you? I miss you. I wish I could come to America again, but money is tight. I'm sorry for not telling you about Neola & Briagra. I should've told you sooner. So do you have a new boyfriend? I was dating a girl named Micadia for about a month, but we broke up, because we were just 2 totally different people. And I didn't like her as much as I loved you. I know I'll probably never see you again, but just know that I love you. – Ib"

"Wow" said Strawberry.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSqPXxPEcR
"I know" said Banana. "This is crazy. I haven't talked to him in almost a year, and now he writes me. Random"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Noq41Ip0s
"Who is this guy?" asked Frosty.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05Pc8znGLN
"Ex boyfriend" said Banana. "Foreign exchange student last year"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxYUIJeEqf
"Do you still like him?" Frosty asked.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwYMkWeIfb
"Not a chance" said Banana. "I'm over him"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYODnYalLeq
"Well, he's obviously not over you" said Frosty.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqq9zLHXwC
"I don't care" said Banana.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAIyHUrNtc
"Are you gonna write back?" Strawberry asked.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3a18jZdRX
"Of course not" said Banana, and she walked back upstairs.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWZj3HwK0h
"Weird" said Strawberry.

Meanwhile, Stitch was laying down on Pixie's couch.
"You can't make me go back" he whined.
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcgvA4hYTB
"Baby, you have to keep going or they'll put you in rehab" Pixie said, carrying London over and sitting down next to him.
"You don't wanna leave me & Londy, do you?"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrct8jTh3L
"Leave me alone, Pixie" said Stitch. "You just don't understand"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XnTi6IPu5
"Stitch" said Pixie. "Why did you hide this from everyone? You have so many people who love you"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfLF2waLcN
"Pixie, I was drinking a lot last year because I was trying to forget the fact that you were pregnant with my baby and screwing some other guy. I had a problem back in junior high, too. I was drunk when I pushed you out of my fucking car. My parents and my brother are the only ones who knew why I had a heart attack. I just missed you so much, Pix. And then by the time London was born and we were back together, I just couldn't stop. And I needed more and more. I tried not to drink around you a lot. I'd let you see me with a beer here and there but that's all. I thought I could handle it. I didn't want you to leave me again, or not let me see my daughter"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE7HP0wPV0
Pixie was trying to fight back tears. "I just wish I would have known" she said quietly. "How could I not have known? I wasn't there to help you, and now I feel like shit. I just NEED you to get better. You almost died. If you died, I'd be all alone with London. What if Strudel wanted to raise her if you died?"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChW9k8hnkP
"Fine" Stitch said. "I'll keep going to the meetings"
201Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hxaBwKOr3
"Thanks, Baby" said Pixie. "I love you so much"
