"Com'on! Com'on!" George was running down the sidewalk, running quickly with all his four limbs. Felipe could barely keep up, and no way was he going to run on all fours...

"Slow down, I can't keep up! Gosh." Felipe gasped for air.
George finally stopped at a crosswalk light and then held his arm out to stop Felipe.

Felipe stared at George's arm for a moment, then looked at the crosswalk light. He sighed and waited for it. "You're going to love this place. My friends Betsy and Steve, and their dog Charkie, go here all the time!" George looked at Felipe. "How nice." Felipe yawned.

The crosswalk light changed and George started running again, making Felipe jump. "Hey! Wait!" Felipe ran after him, trying to keep behind him...


The park was an interesting place, especially to Felipe. The park, he admitted, it reminded him of the fields outside of his castle. Fluffy grass, nice-smelling flowers... He didn't go outside much, but he knew that smell and view from the balcony he stood upon in the morning.

It made him feel at home, like he was at Simiana again.

George finally slowed down, grabbed Felipe's hand and began showing him around.

"Charkie, no! Sit! Siiiit- Whoa!" The brother and sister was trying to tame their dog, Charkie. But Charkie wasn't to be tamed, she was...chaotic. "Hey Betsy! Steve! Charkie!" George waved.

Betsy and Steve looked over at the sound of monkey chatters,
"Hey George! Who's your friend?" Betsy asked.
"Hey, you didn't tell me you had a twin, George!" Steve gasped.

Betsy elbowed Steve's side as a way to tell him to be quiet.

"Oh, this is Prince Felipe. He's my cousin from Simiana." George patted Felipe on the back. "Good day, friends of cousin George." Felipe tipped his crown. "I've read about this monkey. He's the Prince of Simiana from my understanding. It's a pleasure to be in your presence, your highness." Betsy dramatically bowed for the monkey prince.

Felipe smirked softly; finally, someone who treated him with respect.
Unlike George, who pulled him around like a pull-along toy train.

Felipe put his crown back on his head and crossed his arms gently.

"Royalty huh? I didn't know monkeys could be royalty, that's cool! Nice to meet you, my liege." Steve bowed as well. Felipe tipped his crown again and put it back on his head.

Charkie noticed Felipe and barked happily, "NEW FRIEND!" She gaspd and began running towards him. Felipe was startled, "What are you-" Suddenly, he was tackled by Charkie.

"No! Hey! Charkie, bad girl! Down, girl! Down!" Betsy panicked and tried to get Charkie off of Felipe. George giggled, he had been used to it by now, and thought it was funny for Felipe.

Felipe, not so much.
Charkie licked him, "HI NEW FRIEND! I'M CHARKIE!"

Felipe tried to escape, "Ick! Hello, I am Prince Felipe of Simiana, please get off of me now."

Steve whistled and held up a treat, and so Charkie got off of Felipe and charged after the treat.

"She's an excitable, loud friend, but she's fun." George looked at Felipe with a warm smile.
Felipe sighed, getting up and dusting off the dirt. "I want to go back to your home now."


By the time they had got back to the apartment, it was nighttime.
So they were to have dinner, get ready for bed and head to their rooms and sleep.

"What is...this?" Felipe poked at the food on his plate, with a fork.
"What do you mean, what is this? It's food. Eat it." George stuck his tongue out, being silly.

"No, no, like... What kind of food?" Felipe squinted his eyes.
"Food-food." George giggled, jokingly saying.

Felipe could have slammed his head right into the table then, but he restrained.
"Right."


"Can you not brush your teeth that loud? It's annoying." Felipe sighed. George, with a mouthful of toothpaste (and it kind of coming out of his mouth), looked at Felipe and mumbled something.

"What?" Felipe wasn't sure what he said.
George spit out the toothpaste, "I said: Sorry." George repeated.

Felipe continued brushing his teeth, calmly and quietly.


Ted cut off George's lamp and gave him a goodnight kiss, "Goodnight George."
He walked over to Felipe, who was reading a book and patted him on the head. "Goodnight, your monkey-ness." Ted said, then walked off, out of the bedroom and closing the door.

Felipe glanced up over his book for a moment, looking at the door, then looked back at his book. He enjoyed reading. He mostly read Simiana folklore, but since he was at George's house, he had to read what George and Ted had. All of George's books seemed to be too simple and childish for him, so he had asked Ted for some books.

So Felipe was now reading about bears.

"...Hey." George whispered right in Felipe's ear.
Felipe jumped; when did George get beside him?!

"Aah, what?!" Felipe nearly dropped the book.
"Sorry! I was just going to say, I saw a bear once, in real-life." George poked the book.

"Did you?" Felipe raised a brow, putting the book down in his lap.
"Yeah! No one believed me." George nodded.

"I was eating my sandwich when I heard something in the woods, so I checked it out and there was a bear trying to eat the honey out of the beehive in the tree. He wasn't very successful, because the bees sting. Trust me, I know. I got stung on the finger that same day by one."

George explained the story.

"Woods?" Felipe didn't think there was any woods in the city.
"Oh! I meant to say before, me and the man-in-the-yellow-hat has a countryside house!" George giggled. "Ah, you have a country house? That's interesting..." Felipe didn't expect that.

"Anyway, one day, my neighbor Bill wanted to get rid of a beehive, but he was doing it extremely dangerous, and I had learned from my farmer friends that you need to be veeeery careful with bees. You've got to wear gloves, and a helmet, and a suit!" George explained.

"We ended up seeing the bear again, and ended being locked in the house until the bear went away. But he got rid of the beehive, so that was very cool." George yawned, rushing the story.

"I'm tired. Goodnight, I hope you liked my story, Felipe." George crawled out of Felipe's bed and wandered to his own. "Goodnight... George." Felipe closed the book and set it aside.

That's when Felipe cut off his lamp and went to bed as well.
