The next day, Jodi went back to the factory; but not to work.
"This time," she said to herself, "I'm going to spend the day with Randall. He's been so depressed lately! Boy, I hope Sulley doesn't mind!" Well, Sulley didn't mind a bit. In fact, he thought it was a great idea! But when you're trying to talk Mike into something, well, it's kind of hard.
"What do you mean, Randall?That creep?! Are you feeling okay, Jodi?"
"I'm feeling fine, Mike, but today I want to spend the day with Randall, because I think he might be said that I dumped him yesterday. But don't think I meant to, because I didn't. And please, don't call him a creep, because he's not! Because if he really was a creep, do you think I'd want to be friends with a creep, Mike?"
"Weel, okay, but don't come crying to me if he doesn't want to be your friend anymore."
"You know, Mike, you really do worry too much." So Jodi didn't let Randall out of her sight for a minute that day. She helped him with his paperwork, watched him scare kids, and went out to lunch with him. While they were in a restuarant, it hit her: "Randall must be wondering why I'm bugging him; I might as well tell him the truth. I hope he doesn't think I'm a phony, or- oh, no! Maybe Mike was right! Maybe Randall will dump me! Well, even if he does dump me, maybe if I explain myself more clearly, he'll understand, and change his mind! But what if he doesn't! Well, you can't blame a girl for trying. Uh oh! What if he finds out that I'm really a girl?!" Jodi quickly put that thought out of her mind and turned back to Randall, who was staring at her.
"Monstropolis to Jodi, can you hear me? HEY!" Jodi took a deep breath but then sighed. "Randall, the reason I've been following you all day is because of yesterday."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, you remember when I went to Sulley and Mike's place?"
"How could I forget? You dumped me for him! I thought we were best friends, Jodi. But I was wrong."
"No, Randall, wait! Before you jump to conclusions, can I please just finish?"
"Fine. Go ahead."
"As I was talking with Sulley, I started thinking about you. I thought that you might be jealous that-"
"Hey! I don't get jealous! Just betrayed!"
"Randall, let me finish!"
"Sorry."
"I thought that you might be jealous because I'm friends with Sulley now." Randall just looked at Jodi as she continued. "So I got to thinking, maybe Randall needs a day with just me. I don't want to nag at you, so if I'm bugging you, you can just tell me, and I'll leave. Because I miss you, Randall! I really, truly miss you! Even though I have fun with them, I still need to have a day of fun with you, Randall. So, go ahead and dump me if you want. I'll understand. But I'm telling you the truth, Randall! I do like to be with you, but some new friends have come into my life, and I can't ignore them! So, I just hope that you'll stilll be my friend, Randall. That's all I wanted to say." And with that, Jodi got up and started to walkd toward the exit. Randall thought about what she said.
"If I dump her now, what will I have? Nothing. But if I stay friends with her, can I trust her? Is that a real question? Of course I can trust her! It's not like she told a lie, or anything. I've got to catch her!" Randall ran out of the restaurant and finally found Jodi, sitting on top of a building on the side of an alley. He climbed the ladder and found her writing a letter. Randall grinned.
"Well, I guess I could be friends with you, as long as you don't make any new friends." Jodi jumped up from her seat on al old crate, falling off the roof! Randall ran up and helped up Jodi, who was hanging from the building.
"Jodi, I was thinking wrong. You'll always be my friend. If you still want to, that is." Jodi stood there staring at Randall, beaming.
"Yes! I knew you'd come through!"
"Okay, okay. It's not a big deal."
"Uh, huh!"
"Hey, what's that?" Randall said pointing to the letter.
"Oh, that? Oh! That's nothing! Nothing at all." She said, throwing the piece of paper into the air, landing right onto Sulley's doorsteps.
"I don't mind if you're friends with Sullivan, Jodi. Just don't have him around when you're with me. If he's at least 10 feet away from me, I'll blow my top. Okay?" Jodi smiled.
"Okay, Randall, I get the point."
"I mean it's bad enough that his station's right next to mine, but still!" They hopped in his car for the movies as he kept ranting on about Sulley.
"This time," she said to herself, "I'm going to spend the day with Randall. He's been so depressed lately! Boy, I hope Sulley doesn't mind!" Well, Sulley didn't mind a bit. In fact, he thought it was a great idea! But when you're trying to talk Mike into something, well, it's kind of hard.
