Chapter 12: An Unusual Conversation
The Chipmunks and Chipettes met Dave near one of the food court areas, and it was time to leave. On the way home, everyone told Dave what they had done and gotten at the mall. Dave was happy that they all spent their money wisely, and on something that they all could enjoy. When Simon and Theodore mentioned their super hero and ghost costumes, Dave smiled and said: "Well, now you can have fun with your costumes, and I won't have to worry about spending money for costumes on Halloween." Everyone laughed at Dave's compliment. Then, Simon remembered that Theodore had told him that Alvin went to the same costume store they did. He was curious what Alvin's costume looked like.
"Hey Alvin, Theodore mentioned to me that you two went to the same costume store, and made a super hero costume. What does your costume look like?" Simon mentioned to Alvin. Alvin smiled and replied: "I got my costume made from bed sheets, and the outfit is bright red, with a bright yellow 'A' on it, and a yellow cape!" Simon smiled as he and Theodore told Alvin about their super hero costumes.
"Cool, now we can all be super heroes! Did you get any other costumes?" Alvin asked. Simon and Theodore looked at each other, and then back at Alvin and replied: "Bed sheet ghosts!" Alvin gave his brothers a confused look as he stated: "What? Why would you guys pick bed sheet ghosts? I mean, it's not that I'm against you two getting bed sheet ghost costumes, but you two freaked out the last time one of you got stuck under a bed sheet!"
"True, then again, the only reason that Theodore and I get scared and think there's a ghost, is because we don't know who is under the bed sheet. Plus, when one of us gets stuck under the bed sheet, it's usually by accident. Not to mention that the chipmunk under the bed sheet can't see anything, and they struggle with trying to get out of the bed sheet or throwing the bed sheet off of themselves!" Simon explained. Theodore nodded, and then added: "Yeah and struggling to get out of a bed sheet is no fun. It's actually quite scary; one chipmunk is stuck under the bed sheet trying to get out, while the other chipmunk sees their friend under the bed sheet struggling to get out, and they think their bed sheet covered friend is a ghost!"
"Exactly," Simon said concluding the conversation about bed sheet ghosts. The rest of the drive home was quiet, and by the time the family got home, it was nine-thirty pm. The Chipmunks and Chipettes were pretty tired from having so much fun at the mall. So, they put their items from the mall away in their bedroom, got into their pajamas, said goodnight and went to sleep.
