After school that day, Charlie and Patty, (Along with Peppermint Patty) went to deliver the cards. "I made my own card, Chuck." The tomboy exclaimed happily, as they made it to the first house: Heather's
Charlie Brown slid the Red Haired Girl's 'Get Well Soon' card into her mail slot, Patty Swanson rang the doorbell and Peppermint Patty looked around in sheer concern.
Mrs. Wold let the three kids in as they tiptoed into Heather's room.
Once they went in, they were amazed at all the childish scribbles of Charlie Brown hanging up on her turquoise walls along with some dancing trophies on top of her bookshelf and letters from her pen pal project with the lovable looser himself. Charlie Brown soon noticed Heather, sleeping soundly in bed with a stuffed unicorn in her left hand and a thermometer in her mouth.
"Hi Heather." Charlie Brown shyly said once the redhead's eyes slowly opened. "Charlie Brown? What are you doing here?" She then asked as she took the thermometer out of her mouth and put it on her nightstand. Patty looked at Heather and told her, "We're here to say hello and we brought you something." Heather sat up, curious to see what they brought. Mrs. Wold came into Heather's room and gave her a 'Get Well Soon' card. It read: 'To my favorite red-haired ballerina, get well soon. Yours truly, Charlie Brown. XOX' Heather smiled as she blew a kiss in Charlie's direction, causing him to blush.
Peppermint Patty looked at Heather and said, "You kind of like Chuck, huh?" Heather yawned and nodded her head in agreement with the freckle-faced girl. Charlie then signaled to the tomboy to let Heather sleep.
"Besides, we still have more cards to deliver." He added as the three kids tiptoed out of the Little Red Haired Girl's room and headed to the next house on the list: Violet's.
