Chapter 2 Guess 'N Wonder:

A few months past and it was now December.

Of course Virgil and Magenta were only still good friends.

Because of that, Richie said to Virgil, "you don't believe that Magenta may also like you back. So, since it's the month of Christmas…You know what that holiday has in it, don't you bro?"

"Well since you're talking about me and Magenta, I'm gonna guess the Mistletoe."

"Bingo! I betcha that if you stand underneath one, she'll be the one to meet you under it and give you that kiss that will prove to you that she has the same feelings for you as you do for her."

"I sure hope you're right."

"I have this strong feeling telling me that I am."


It was a Friday afternoon and Magenta was in her room thinking.

Her mind raced with questions.

Does Virgil like me more than just a friend?

Does he hug all his friends that are girls?

Is it just me or is it whenever he looks at me his eyes seem to sparkle?

Am I just making myself believe that he could like me because I like him?

Should I tell him?

If I did, would he freak and run away?

What should I do?

She was so confused. She couldn't tell what kind of signals Virgil was sending her.

She even wondered if one day she'll ever find out.
