"Why I Love Eid al-Fitr More Than Summer in 2017?"

-Chapter 1: Hello, Eid! Goodbye, Ramadan!-

(8:00 AM. Wednesday, 21 June 2017):

One warm morning at the Arbuckles' residence, Garfield was sitting at the dining room, drinking a cup of coffee. Suddenly, Jon appeared and told him that today was the 'first day of Summer'!

"Hey, Garfield! Today was the first day of Summer! It's time to hit the ol' wading pool!" said Jon.

Jon leaves the dining room for a while. Then, Jon returns with some 'embarrassing' swimsuits!

"Tah-dah!" continued Jon, showing his 'Wade' lifebuoy with snorkels, shorts and shoulder-buoys!

"Hello, Summer! Goodbye, Dignity!" said Garfield.

After that, Garfield remembered one 'embarrassment', which occurred 4 months ago, on Winter!

(26 February 2017):

Garfield was imagining that he was having a vacation at the hot beach. He looks at the waves, the sands and the sun which him gives the warm air. Then, he saw a chair and a glass of iced juice. After that, he sat on the chair, took the juice and relaxed comfortablly. Suddenly, a human voice announced something unfair.

"And now here's Chuck with the forecast..." said the voice.

"Looks like another eight to ten inches of snow tonight, Stu!" continued the voice.

Garfield woke up from his imagination upon hearing the unfair announcement, thus returns him to the real world where the front lawn was ambushed by thick snow at the outside for tonight!

(Meanwhile, in the dining room):

Jon and Liz was having some hot coffee when they suddenly heard a weeping voice of Garfield!

"What's that?" asks Jon.

"It sounds like a cat weeping" replied Liz.

Once Garfield finished recalling Winter's embarrassment, he confessed his relief about Summer!

"Winter embarrassed me back then! Now, today is the first day of Summer!" continued Garfield.

(8:00 PM):

"Why did you install some colorful festive lights? It's 6 months past Christmas!" asks Garfield.

"Tonight is the 27th night of Ramadan! So, that's why I'm installing it for tonight!" replied Jon.

(2:00 PM. Thursday, 22 June 2017):

One hot evening at the Arbuckles' backyard, Garfield and the snowman are talking for Summer.

"You know, I'm bored living on Winter! Why? I often have colds! So, that's why I escape from my usual season and arrived today, on the 2nd day of Summer! Well, I want to feel the warm air for the first time and I love summer!" said the snowman, who was then transformed to the puddle.

But it doesn't love you!" replied Garfield.

"How could you say that to me? I won't appear again, next Winter... Waa!" continued the puddle.

Garfield, who felt scared if the snowman won't meet him again on the next Winter, immediately apologized to the snowman, who turns into a puddle and said something motivational for him!

"I'm sorry for saying that word just now! Anyways, Eid al-Fitr still loves you!" apologized Garfield.

Then, the puddle reverts to a snowman, who felt excited again upon hearing Garfield's words of 'motivation'! After that, he thanks Garfield for making him strong again and asks for new clothes!

"Thanks for motivating me again! Anyways, where's my new clothes for Eid?" asks the snowman.

"You're welcome, and my owner with his girlfriend are creating 'em for us now!" replied Garfield.

(8:00 AM. Friday, 23 June 2017):

One hot morning at the Arbuckles' residence, Garfield was having naps. Suddenly, Jon came and announced a 'bad-turned-good' news.

"We're not taking a vacation this year. Instead, we'll just stay home and celebrate Eid al-Fitr with Liz, Mrs. Betty, Mr. Robert, Heather, Mom, Dad, Drusilla, Minerva, Aunt Ivy, Lyman and Doc Boy!" said Jon.

"Really? I thought we're on one!" replied Garfield.

Then, Jon's smartphone rings and once he answered the call, he founds out that the caller is Liz!

"Hello, Jon! What's your plans for Eid this year? I can't wait to meet you on this Sunday!" said Liz.

"How about a surprise wedding? We're dating but still remained single for 11 years!" replied Jon.

"How 'sweety-sweet' your plans are! I'll be bringing my family together on this Eid!" continued Liz.

"How 'cooly-cool' my plans are! I'll also bring my family together on this Eid, too!" continued Jon.

"Have a romantic Eid al-Fitr, Jon/Liz! *kiss* Bye! I'll meet you on this Eid!" continued Jon and Liz.

"It looks like that I'll be having a new family member soon! How lucky, am I?" continued Garfield.
