-1Still not enough Cornbelle stories for my liking. So I'm making a multi-chapter. Hope you enjoy it. To the chapter
Chapter 1: You Were Invited Where?!
"Hello, Stubbs residence," Seaweed answered the phone.
"Yes, is there someone by the name of Maybelle there?" an elderly woman's voice asked from the other side.
"Yeah, just a moment," Seaweed replied as he placed the phone on the counter to go find his mother. Maybelle emerged and picked up the phone.
"Hello, Maybelle speaking?" she answered.
"Hi Maybelle, this is Elizabeth Collins, Charlie's mother," the woman greeted.
"Charlie?"
"I suppose you might know him as Corny, honey."
"Oh! Yes, it's nice to meet you, Mrs. Collins," Maybelle acknowledged with fake excitement. I didn't know Cornbread mentioned me to his parents… that's very suspicious, she though
"It's a pleasure. I'm calling to personally invite you and your family to come visit for his birthday and Christmas. Would you and your family care to come?"
"We would be delighted to come for a visit, Mrs. Collins."
"Excellent!" Mrs. Collins exclaimed excitedly. "Charlie should show you the directions to our home. Well, we'll be seeing you and your family in December then?"
"Of course, thank you. Bye now." When Maybelle heard her hang up, she put the phone down.
"Who was that?" Lil' Inez came from the back.
"Apparently that was Corny's mother, inviting us to come and visit for Christmas…" she answered as she sat down on the couch.
"Are we going?" her daughter asked excitedly.
"Do they know we're black?" Seaweed stepped in into the conversation.
"That I don't know," she replied. "I'm going to talk to him about it first, and then we'll see if we should go."
Not much of a first chapter… But don't worry. The next chapter will be longer, m'kay? So go on ahead and tell me whatcha think.
