I meet Berrykin Bruce where my clinic will be built, at the empty spot next to the bridge and Blueberry's bookstore. It's the perfect place to put my clinic.
Me: Hello, Berrykin Bruce, how's it going?
Berrykin Bruce: Oh, Dominic, there you are. I got your designs in the mail and I have to say, they aren't bad.
Me: That's a relief. So can you make it happen?
Berrykin Bruce: We can. The only issue is getting the materials, since, you know, they're not easy to come by these days.
Me: If you can't get the white wood, some oak will do. I can always paint over it.
Berrykin Bruce: It'll take 2 days for the white wood to get here, and we'll need that for the walls. We can get started on the foundation now. What do you say?
Me: Oh, that's a plan, alright.
Berrykin Bruce: Then it's settled.
I get on my knees and shake his hand.
Me: If you need any assistance, I'm happy to help.
Berrykin Bruce: That's very thoughtful of you, but no need. Us Berrykins have pulled through many a challenge for years.
Me: Years? How old are you?
Berrykin Bruce: Not as old as the princess or Berrykin Bloom, but I've been around.
Me: I have a lot of questions, but you'll be busy, so I'll wait. Anyway, I'll be at the cafe, since that's kinda my temporary home.
Berrykin Bruce: It must be wonderful waking up to such delicious aromas.
Me: Berrykin Bruce, it's amazing.
But before I can leave, Bruce holds me back.
Berrykin Bruce: There's one thing I'm not sure about.
Me: What's that?
Berrykin Bruce: What are you going to call the clinic?
Me: Oh, I have the perfect name. [ahem] The Coconut Clinic.
Berrykin Bruce: Coconut?
Me: I couldn't think of any other "white" fruit to match with the doctor theme.
Berrykin Bruce: Hmm, I guess that makes sense. Alright then, we'll get started right away.
Me: Great, thank you so much.
I wave to him as I walk to the cafe. I hear Strawberry from inside. It sounds like she's concentrating on something.
Strawberry: Glitters! No, glittery! Glittery? No-no-no-no-no, glitter-ing!
It's her poem for the "Storytime Corner" thing. I enter the cafe and she doesn't even know that I've walked in.
Strawberry: Glit...ter...ing. Oh, that sounds best!
Me: Ahem!
