June 1
Eddy had another one of his famous ideas today. Here we go again! Though something's changed with Eddy. I mentioned in previous entries that I had been quite sick and in the hospital. Since then everyone has been a little different near me. Eddy and Ed get quite upset when I make the smallest sound. A sigh or cough will do it. That's what happened today you see...
Mother had gone to work early with a promise to be home for dinner and so I began preparing the kitchen and was in the act of washing the breakfast dishes when I heard a knock on my door and upon opening it I found Ed and Eddy on the other side. I greeted them as usual only to be briefed on today's plan. "Boy do I have a job for you Double D, We're gonna get ourselves some jawbreakers guaranteed!" I rolled my eyes. "The only thing that's ever guaranteed in your ideas Eddy is that some how some way it will go horribly wrong." I replied I realize it was a little rude but sometimes you have to be very honest with Eddy. "gee thanks Sock Head, way to be a friend." Sarcasm the second language of the Eds. Yes even I use it quite a bit with Eddy.
He shook it of and proceeded to tell me about the "candy factory" he wanted to build. Eddy's idea for our Jaw Breakers? Rocks. "Then I suppose you would charge a quarter for dental services?" I joked. I should have known better. "Yeah Double D That's genius!" Eddy said excitedly. I shook my head. I suddenly coughed. Nothing terrible you know when you just cough sometimes, one of those things. Eddy stopped and his eyes widened as he turned away from Ed so as not to show him his expression which was very near panic. Ed seemed a little concerned but nothing more than the question of "are you okay Double D" came from him.
I assured Them both I was fine, in truth I was and still am. Eddy was not easily convinced. Instead he said that the plan could wait a while and did I need any help with anything. The rest of the day was spent with Eddy watching me like a hawk. Yes I understand why and I can't honestly say if it had happened to Ed or Eddy I wouldn't feel the same. Almost losing your best friend does a lot to you.
What bothers me about it is that I fear it will never be the same. I admit to an extent I enjoyed the changes but now all I want is to have things back to normal...minus the fighting and such of course.
One day I hope Eddy can realize that I am fine. When I first returned home Ed was cautious too but soon went back to being himself around me for the most part.
What I need now that I have come back is for things to go back to normal. Well mostly normal.
When will they learn?
