Tears of The Rose-Chp37

(next morning)

Sylvia: (was still asleep in her sleeping bag till she awoke to a smell that smelled good) (yawn)...

Peepers: [was at the fire cooking breakfast, glad tht the sun is up n its no longer cold]

Sylvia: (pokes her head out) Morning, Pipsqueak.

Peepers: Mornin', zbornak. Had a good sleep last night?

Sylvia: Yeah, good sleep... (comes over to him) What's for breakie?

Peepers: The classic bacon n eggs with orange juice, tho u hv to help me get the juice bottles frm my gear. U want ur eggs sunny side up or scrambled?

Sylvia: Sunny side. :)

Peepers: Huh, so do I. Guess we hv something in common [plated the bacon n moved on to cooking the eggs]

Sylvia: Yeah. ^^

Peepers: U manage to find the juice bottles?

Sylvia: (brings up the bottles) Got them.

Peepers: Thanks [finished cooking the eggs, then gave Sylvia's share] Here ya go

Sylvia: Thanks. (takes her food)

Peepers: [took his share] Hope its tastes OK for u. I'm no gourmet chef, bt I manage

Sylvia: (takes a few bites) Different from Wander's but it's still good. Have you considered being a cook before?

Peepers: Me? Nah, can't picture myself in the kitchen all day. I prefer to be out in the field or at my desk working, like wat I'm doing right now

Sylvia: Suit yourself. (eats more)

Peepers: Wat? U think I should be a cook?

Sylvia: It's just a thought (shrugs)

Peepers: Wat abt u? Did u hv any dreams, any ambitions u wanted to do before u ended up journeying with Wander?

Sylvia: No, not really. Just felt like traveling around and stuff, I guess.

Peepers: I see... [sipped his drink] I'm curious tho, if u don't mind me asking, did u managed to use the mini-drive to see ur girl again?

Sylvia: (pauses) I've...checked on her, yes..

Peepers: Good, just wondering. [takes another sip] So any plans to someday meet her in person?

Sylvia: We...we can do that?

Peepers: Why not? Its ur right to do so. I thought u would've wanted to by now

Sylvia: I know, but... suppose she doesn't remember me? Suppose her new parents forbid me to even talk to her?

Peepers: Then we'll just hv to weather it thru, n if u want... [cleared his throat] Ahem... Well, if u want, I can accompany u if anything happens

Sylvia:...Alright then. (nod)

Peepers: [finishes his breakfast] Alright, if ur ready, lets pack up n keep exploring to see wat this planet has to offer besides this gob-forsaken weather

Sylvia: Yeah, see what else there is.
