"G'mornin', Agarwaen," Whitney said, walking into the office building of Johntown327's Unlimited Giveaway. It was exactly 8:56 AM, and she had just dropped the kids off at school. Agarwaen, a brown horse of 12 years, nodded as she shuffled her papers. "Today's going to be a busy day. Chris says that we're going to open the stand a little... earlier today because of some massive requests." Chris was always addressed by Johntown327, and was the owner of the giveaway. He was a strict man, always at the point when it came to business, and was funny and caring. "Will and I better be at JUG early," Whitney said. "If we want to send out enough offers, we'll have to get there quick!" The horse grinned and said, "Well, good luck at getting to the clerk's desk." With a wink, she disappeared into the small, brightly-lit office behind her. Whitney just shook her head, smiled, and walked off down the hall towards the elevators, ready to arrive at her destination on the fourth floor: the Human Resources Department Floor.
There was nothing new today. When Whitney arrived, Will was busy checking email from his silly little sister, Babyoshi was poring over a thick science textbook, and Poppet, the director of the department, was busy writing a letter to a client. Carmen and Peewee, the other two recruiters, were not here yet. And Ankha had reported in sick with a stomach flu.
By the time the mouse and gorilla had arrived, which was a few minutes later, Will was sending out more offers, Babyoshi was now reading a computer manual, and Poppet had just finished sealing her envelope closed. Then, the black cat briefed them in on a few updates on new hires, and they all set out for the giveaway together, which was a good few blocks away. By 3 o'clock, Whitney had remembered my meeting with Goldie and the other girls, and then finished clearing up a bit of work, then left the giveaway quarters after saying a farewell to Johntown327 and VenusKamal, the manager. Quickly, she ran towards the train station at the head of the Sunshine City, boarded the train after buying a ticket, and then caught up with Liz and Maddie.
A few minutes later, the girls had reached DinoTown, where they found Amoon and Tahani with Tabby. The orange cat had told Whitney's two cousins about the business they were about to run, and they agreed that they would like to join. By the time Liz's watch read 4:49, the girls had reached Goldie's house. Tutu was already there, and so was Midge. Goldie was in the kitchen, setting out cookies and making hot chocolate. Everyone sat down on the couch, two rocking chairs, and floor, and then Goldie started.
"Well," the dog began slowly. "I called you all today because I had a great idea."
"...It has something to do with babysitting," Tabby said, not quite remembering what Liz had told her over the phone.
"That's right," Goldie replied. "I was hoping, well, that we could form a babysitters club." Everyone was facinated by the idea, and quickly agreed. Goldie had already set out most of the rules. "We'll meet at someone's house every Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. They have to have a phone, though."
"You guys could use my house," Liz said with a grin, showing off her teeth. "I even have snacks: chips, marshamllows, gummy bears, you name it!" Goldie smiled gratefully back at everyone, who nodded eagerly.
"Anyway, we'll need a secretary to keep records of our clients and their children," Whitney's best friend went on. "We'll also need a treasurer to keep track of all our money we've earned, and then use it to pay phone bills and such." Everyone nodded rather reluctantly when they realized they were going to have to hand over a bit of the money they had earned. "Not to mention a president to run the club, and a vice-president."
"I'll be the secretary!" Whitney called out. She was extra neat, and loved to write. "I'd like to be the treasurer," Tutu said with a smile. Tabby then said, "We should have Goldie be president; she's the one that invented this!" Everyone agreed, and then Tahani spoke up, "Liz should be the vice-president because she's letting us use her phone, plus supply a life-long storage of snacks." Everyone laughed when they saw she was joking, and then Goldie got back on topic. "Plus, I've invented something new," she said. " They're called Kid-Kits: small kits that're filled with our old toys, books, and things that the kids will like playing with. Plus, we can include, bubbles, crayons, and other things."
"That's a great idea!" Midge said. "Plus, I have some cardboard that I was gonna dump out at the junkyard, so why don't we use that?" Everyone agreed that it was better to use recycled material than going to Nook's store and buying construction paper for 200 Bells. Tutu also said that her little sister, Lulu, had some paint and crayons for them to decorate.
Whitney didn't know how this was going to turn out, but she knew one thing... This would start out fun!
Alright, now I've got Chapter 1 out of the way, so I can start thinking up more ideas... if you have any suggestions, please include it in a review! Thank you guys! Love y'all who read this story!
