Chereads / Jerm Jenson: Rise of a Quibly / Chapter 23 - Chapter 20

Chapter 23 - Chapter 20

Sheila was more than happy to greet me with wet doggie kisses.

I was very careful to keep my cloaking hand free from her excited rampage.

She was bigger than me and Sam combined.

The dog smelled wet and moldy, I loved her already.

Sam pulled Sheila off of me and we proceeded to his room.

The room looked like a boom bang went off in there, Earth's grenade.

Two things really stood out right away.

A painting, colorful and beautiful and a signed soccer ball on a pedestal above his bed.

Sam noticed me staring, "Ahh, you like the painting and the ball?"

I nodded with excitement.

He smiled, "That painting is an original Aliyah T. and the ball is a game used autographed Jason A."

I had no idea what Sam was talking about but they seemed to be his prized possessions.

My Mom and Dad won them on eBay. Believe it or not, Aliyah T. and Jason A. are brother and sister, the same family. Must have had some pretty great parents."

Farmer Dan could be heard yelling in the back, "A tomato!"

It was a blue ball, Sheila's toy.

Sam chuckled, so I did too.

When he stopped laughing, "Where are your parents? Where's your home?"

I reached for my card again but decided to go with something more believable, "My Mom and Dad went on a trip and they never came back. I've been on my own ever since."

His face turned sad, "Wow, well…I can ask my parents if you can be my brother."

I nodded in agreement.

This plan seemed like it would work, I just had to brief the Chancellor using my briefing module.

Momma had told me he didn't like when Quiblys strayed from his plans.
