[ Shelly, 12:13 PM, Sprout's Floor ] I was curled up in a ball when Cocoa came into the room. She turned on the lights and walked over to the bed I was laying on. "Hey, Shelly," She smiled at me. I turned over to face her, then felt a bit embarrassed when I saw her expression. She looked as if she was going to laugh at me, so I sat directly upright. "What's so funny?" I questioned her groggily. She shifted her weight onto her left hip. "Not much! You were just all curled up in a way I'd never seen before, and I thought it looked sorta silly." "Hey, wait- what are you here for?" "Oh, right. I should probably explain to you what happened, hehe." Cocoa sat down on the corner of the bed. "Basically, Sprout and Cosmo are going to ask Vee about the memory erasing thing, and I'm supposed to ask you about it too, while they do their stuff." "You know, I... I don't really remember anything." I spluttered. "It'd be best if you tried to go meet up with Sprout, and Cosmo..." "That's not what I really want to do, though. Please, pretty please, Shelly, just let me ask you? Pleeeaaase?" Cocoa implored. "Fine," I finally managed to grumble. "Okie dokie! Uh, first off, do you remember anything at all? Even the smallest detail matters!" I reflected back on my memories. Everything was, thankfully, less blurry now, but I still had trouble fully fleshing out anything that came up when I thought about getting hurt. One memory was apparent, though. I fell onto the concrete floor with agonizing pain in my face, and I could vaguely remember Bassie being in front of me. When I told that to Cocoa, her eyes widened. "That sounds horrible!" "Yeah," I admitted. "all injuries are." "Okay, is that all?" I nodded my head. "Gosh, that isn't all that much to go off of..." Cocoa stared at the ground beneath her. "But it's not your fault, so don't apologize!" She seemed to know what I had planned to say, so I said something else instead. "That's... all I have to offer. How about we go and meet Sprout and Cosmo? It'll save them the time from having to explain everything to us." She bore her concerned eyes into me; her mouth pulled into a slight frown. "Are you sure?" I haltered. "I, uh... it's up to you." "Oh, come along, don't hem and haw like Bassie!" Cocoa jived. "Yes or no?" I looked away from her, a bit ashamed. "Yes." "Okay then, let's go!" Cocoa hopped off of the bed. "Oh, wait- Cosmo told me it's okay to remove that bandage from your eye now!" She walked in front of me, then took off my flower crown. I carried out a small "thanks" as she unwrapped the thing. "No problem," she returned. "Have you... uh, seen it?" I took a guess she meant the wound. "Yeah. Nasty, isn't it?" "Hmm, not really! Go look in the mirror." she signaled to the mirror that was beside the bed. I looked at myself in it, a bit relieved. It had healed since the last time I saw it, somehow. "Okay, okay, enough dawdling!! Let's gooo!" I turned, and Cocoa was already waving at me from the door. I laughed to myself a bit, and followed her.
