Chapter 7, Epilogue
"Well guys, that's our story." Said Howie.
Just then, Uncle Ted walks into the room.
"Well hey there Bobb-o." Said Uncle Ted.
"Uncle Ted? What are you doing here? You weren't in the story. And, you've never started or ended our shows or any of our other stories with us in the past." Said Bobby.
"Oh, Bobby, I forgot to tell you, Uncle Ted is here to show me his new chili recipe." Said Howie.
"Oh, ok." Said Bobby.
"Here you go bro, take a taste of this." Said Uncle Ted, as he put some of his chili on to a tortilla chip, and handed it to Howie.
Howie took a bite, and his face turned red instantly from it being too spicy.
"Uh, water please?" Howie managed to squeak out, before running off camera to go get a drink.
"So Bobb-o, what have you been up to lately?" Uncle Ted asked.
"Well, my friend Tommy broke his leg so I kept him company by helping him make a storybook that we gave to Captain Squash when we met him at the mall, and next week, Tommy and I are going to see Captain Squash on Ice!" Said Bobby excitedly.
"I know. I'm taking you kids to the ice show." Said Uncle Ted.
"You are?" Bobby asked in surprise.
"Yep." Said Uncle Ted, as he put some more chilli and tortilla chips in his mouth.
"Oh wow cool! But, why are you here to close out the story? You weren't in the rest of the story." Said Bobby.
Just then, Howie reentered the room.
"Bobby? You know how you and Tommy did a new exciting activity, making a picturebook? Well, I thought it was time for us to do something new to close out our stories. Having someone else join us from time to time, and since your Uncle Ted was coming to visit anyway, I thought I'd let him close out the story with us." Said Howie.
"Oh wow, that's a great idea Howie! You read my mind. No, wait, you had, um, you had, what's that word again?" Bobby asked, forgetting what he had learned in the last chapter.
"Empathy Bobby, I had empathy. And yes, I was putting myself in your place when I decided to invite Ted to end the story with us. And speaking of endings, it's time to say goodbye Bobby." Said Howie.
"Goodbye Bobby." Said Bobby.
"No Bobby, not, goodbye to you. Goodbye to the readers." Said Howie.
"Oh, ok. Goodbye readers." Said Bobby.
"Until next time, I'm Howie, and that's Bobby, and Uncle Ted, stuffing his face, and, well, goodbye everyone." Said Howie.
And this, ends the story, of The Broken Bone Experience.
