Inside, Poppy Sat Along A Soft Lounge Chair, Holding Her Hands Together.

Poppy Sighed.
"And I Just Feel Like....If I Pick My Mom, Branch Will Be Disappointed Again And If I Pick Branch, My Mom Will Be Disappointed...It Sucks When Having To Pick Between Loved Ones!"

Cybil Was Taking Notes. 🗒
"Uh Huh, Uh Huh, Uh Huh. Very Interestinggggg"

"Wait- Cybil? You're The Trollstopia Therapist?"

"Of Course I Am! You Know How My Wisdom Is"
Cybil Said.

"Yeahhh But, Don't You Do The Futuristic Crystal Ball Sightings Thing?"
Poppy Raised Her Eyebrow.

Cybil Shrugs.
"Eh, It's Good To Switch Up Things Like When That Old Sonic Model Got Switched"

Poppy Blinked.
".......Ya Know, You Sound Just Like Barb- But Anyways"

"So I See The Problem, You Don't Wanna Make Any Of Your Two Loved Ones Upset On Hug Day That Will Commence In A Issue That Will Go On For Days With Angst"
Cybil Stated.

Poppy Slowly Nodded.
"Yeahhhhh, You Got The Basic Point"

Poppy Frowned With Her Ears Down.
"I Just Don't Know What To Do....I Love Them Both Sooo Much And Want To Hug Them Both For Their First Time Of Hug Day"

Cybil Listened And Nodded.
"Hm, Say That Last Part Again Poppy"

"The Uhhh Want To Hug Them Both For Their First Time Of Hug Day?"
Poppy Repeated.

"Mhm, Now Think About That Statement For A Moment And Let It Flow Through Your Mind"
Cybil Instructed.

Poppy Snickers.
"Okaaaay But I Don't Get Why I Gotta-"

"- G A A A S S S P P P 😱 "

Back At The Lake, Wani And Tresillo Were Sitting On A Log, Drying Them Selves Off.

Wani Tried Squeezing The Water Out Her Hair.

"Okaaay My Turn"
Tresillo Pulled His Arm Back.

"HEY! Ughhh!"
Wani Groaned.

Tresillo Squeezed The Water Out Of Each Of His Dreads.

"Might Take Awhile, You Know How Much Dreads I Have"
Tresillo Winked.

"Wellll Taking TOOOOO Long!"
Wani Pulled Her Hand Back.

"AYE!"
Tresillo Yelped.

"Stop That!"
Tresillo Pulled His Hand.

"OW! Watch It!"
Wani Pulled Her Hand Back Again.

Both Pulled Each Other's Hand Back n Forth From One Another.

"UGHHHHHH!!!!"
Both Groaned And Turned The Opposite Way.

Tresillo Sighed, Shaking His Head.
"We Can't Go The Whole Hug Day With This"

"Ya Think Mustache Face?"
Wani Rolled Her Eyes.

"Soooo, I Say We Just Talk Things Out Instead Of Just Going Back And Forth"
Tresillo Said.

Wani Scoffs.
"Pfff- Yeah Right. Like If You'd Ever Go Through With That"

"Maybe I Will!"
Tresillo Said.

"NO YOU WON'T TRACY!"
Wani Shook Her Head Rapidly.

When Wani Shook Her Head, Her Secret Diary Fell Out Her Hair And On The Log.

Tresillo Spotted The Diary And Picked It Up Curiously.

Tresillo Opened The Book With His One Hand And Looked Through It.

Entries Of Wani's Days Thinking Of Tresillo Were All Shown And Reveled To Him.

The More Tresillo Flipped Through The Pages, The More Tresillo Put Together Wani's Secret Feelings For Him.

Tresillo Grinned And Chuckled A Bit.
"Wow"

"What's Wow?"
Wani Turned Around.

Wani Gasped As She Noticed Tresillo Had Her Diary.

"GIVE ME THAT!"
Wani Snatched Back The Diary.

"HOW DARE YOU INAVDE MY GIRLY PRIVACY! THIS IS MY STUFF! MINE! Hmph"
Wani Turned Around The Opposite Way, Hugging Her Diary With One Hand.

"So When Were You Gonna Tell Me"
Tresillo Said.

"Pffft, T-Tell You Whaaaat...?"
Wani Hid Her Blush With Her Hair.

"Wans, Cmon. I Just Saw All Of That"
Tresillo Gestures.

"DOESN'T MATTER! IT'S MY PERSONAL FEELINGS THAT ONLY I CAN UNDERSTAND!"
Wani Yelled In Tresillo's Face.

"O_______O"
Tresillo's Eyes Widen.

Wani Rolled Her Eyes.
"Besides, It's Not Like You'd Feel The Same-"

"-Way?"
Tresillo Finished.

Wani Blushed More Nervously.
"Y-Yeah.."

Tresillo Shrugs.
"Who Said That?"

Wani Turned To Him.
"Well I'd Just Assume From Our Constant Bickering That You'd Never-"

Tresillo Put His Finger On Her Lips.
"Imma Stop You Right There Senorita-"

Wani Stopped Talking And Listened.

"Okay Sure We Argue And Fight Alot, But That Just Gives Us More Chemistry"
Tresillo Said.

"I Guess But.."
Wani Moved Her Foot Around The Grass, Looking Down.

Tresillo Held Up Her Chin.
"I Might Seem Like A Solo Bachelor, But When You're Around Me.."

"...Being Solo Is A Thing Of The Past"
Tresillo Smirked At Her.

Wani Smiled Back At Him With Her Ears Up.
"So...What Are You Saying?"

Tresillo Replied.
"I'm Saying, If You Ever Wanted A-"

Wani Gasped And Hugged Tresillo Immediately.
"YES! YES YES YES YES!!!"

Tresillo Chuckles And A Playful Grin.
"Okay Okaaaaay 😏"

Wani Kissed Tresillo All On His Face.
"MWAH! MWAH MWAH! AWWW MY TRESSYYYY WESSSYYY"

Tresillo Smiled At Wani, Blushing Flustered.

"Ugh, Yeah Thanks. But You Can't Just Train Me Only To Find Out You Already Told-"

Delta Suddenly Kissed Hickory On His Cheek Mid-Conversation.

Hickory Froze, And Blushed Darkly With Hearts In His Eyes.

Trollex Smirked, Crossed His Arms.
"You Were Saying?"

Hickory Got Speechless.
"I-I-I-I-I Gaga Boogiee 😍.."

"Shall We?"
Delta Held Out Her Hand.

"Ya Darn Skippy~"
Hickory Winked.

Hickory And Delta Held Hands, Walking Out To Trollstopia To Spend Hug Day Together.
