Life Would be a Dream ~ A Story About Pickles

Chapter 8: WHAT WE ALL NEEDED TO KNOW

       Parsley and Randy arrive back to the apartment and they find Parsley's dad wearing a gas mask.

        "What??? Dad when did you get that?" Parsley asks.

       "I've had it for a while now. Whatever. Did you get the vinegar?" Parsley's dad asks. 

      "Yes, yes I did." Parsley hands his dad the vinegar and Parsley's dad sighs. 

     "Disgusting." he comments.

     Randy had the urge to punch him and his stupid mustache but Parsley shook his head, like he knew what Randy was thinking. 

     "Ok trash rat-" 

     "DAD HIS NAME IS RANDY."

    "Whatever. Ok Randy, just put the cucumbers into some vinegar and let it sit for a few days. Then you have pickles." Parsley's dad said.

     "What? That's it?" Randy was shocked, after 4 chapters of trying to get pickles you just had to let cucumbers sit in some vinegar for a few days?? That's ridiculous.

     "Yes, now shoo." Parsley's dad that little hand flick motion.

     "Can I at least have the pickles?" Randy asks.

    "Yes," Parsley's dad gives him the the cucumber jar, "NOW GET OUT OF HERE."

    "Wait- Randy is there a chance I can have my phone back?" Parsley asks.

     "mmmmno."

    "Oh ok. Bye." Parsley waves and Randy leaves and goes back to his abandoned house. What nice people?? Sorta?????
