Disclaimer: Does anyone ever read this? Anyway, just so my mother does not
get a lawsuit and ban me from the net forever, I would just like to say
that the only thing belonging to me is Mary Jo and the plot. Just so no one
is hurt.
A/N: I would just like to thank all those who have reviewed. Please keep reading. Thanks once again. Sarah spent most of the next day locked in her room. She did not come out except for the occasional snack. It was easy, since she had a bathroom connected to her room and she was not much of a mood to be talking to Mary Jo. Though she desperately tried, Mary Jo could not coax Sarah out of the room. She had even resorted to offering Sarah a full days pampering at the most expensive day spa in the city. Normally, that would have appealed to her, but Sarah just could not bring herself to leave her room unless her hunger became unbearable.
"Please, Sarah," begged Mary Jo. "You can't stay in there forever. Are you ill? Is your head aching? Are you regurgitating?"
"No, no, and again no," sighed Sarah. She was getting somewhat perturbed by all the questions that Mary Jo was asking her. "I- just need some time alone, that's all."
"But- but, I just don't like the thought of you practically starving yourself to death. If it is time alone that you need, then why don't I just leave for a few hours and let you have the entire house to yourself. I could go to the mall. I wanted to go to that new store. You could eat while you are thinking."
"N-no, that's okay," replied Sarah. She did not want her friend to think that she needed to leave. She would have felt even more horrible than she already did because guilt would have been added on top of her confusion. "Just, do whatever you want." She was feeling so horrible.
"Well, okay, dear. But if you need anything, then you just tell me, alright?" Sarah did not answer. Feeling very distraught, Mary Jo went downstairs, hating the feeling of defeat.
Sarah was relieved once Mary Jo left. It was not the fact that she disliked being with her or talking to her about her problems. It was just that this was one problem that she wished to face alone. At least, from here on out.
But, she knew that she could not face it alone. She did not want to upset Mary Jo any more with her woes. But whom else could she turn to? Then, her eyes lit up with the sudden realization of a person that she had not thought of before. Well, that is to say, he was not a person, but a dwarf.
"I need you, Hoggle," she gasped as she ran to her vanity mirror. "I really need you." For a few seconds, there was nothing but the sound of her very own breathing. Then, she felt a soft tap on her lower back. She whirled around to find that it was not Hoggle that she was looking at, but a certain Goblin King with a smile on his face.
"Hello, darling," he said.
