Wednesday - 5:22 A.M. - June 9

Teardrop and Coiny had started gathering wood and are now starting to build the lab. "Ugh, why can't we just  buy one??? I don't know how to build a lab." Coiny complained. Teardrop shook her head and pulled out her phone (it was also blue). She typed in 'secret lab' on Amazon and showed him the results.

Only chairs?? (Try it.)

"Oh, I guess no one really wants to sell their secret lab." Coiny remarked.
"Or no one actually can."
"That too."

-

They were only 1/8 of the way done when they both got tired.
"It's too early to stop now! If we did the secret lab would still be visible to intruders." Teardrop wrote. "Sorry Teardrop, but I am way too tired." Coiny started to get up from position, "Besides, who'd want to sneak into the woods anyway?" "You're killing me out here." Teardrop wrote in response.
"I wish-" Coiny said before being interrupted.

"That's not a very nice thing to say." Teardrop twirled around to  see Leafy come out from the bushes. "Wha" She reacted.
"I know it looks bad, but I was just curious, ok! You guys were being so mysterious, and I wanted in!" Leafy confided, "So I kinda followed you."

"Please don't tell anyone!" Coiny pleaded. Leafy smiled, "I won't. That wouldn't be a very nice thing to do, would it?" Teardrop squinted her eyes. "You sure?"

"Yes. I promise."

Teardrop was busy writing in her journal when Leafy ran up to her. She seemed really excited.. Teardrop tilted her head sideways as she stared at Leafy. "Hey Teardrop!" She exclaimed, "When are we going continue building the-" Teardrop covered her mouth and pointed to the rest of the girls that were sleeping.

"Oh, sorry," She said, "but when are we going to continue building the secret lab? I'm so excited." Teardrop could tell. "I've been wondering," Leafy continued, "since I know about your secret lab and stuff.. Could I be, like, an assistant?"

Teardrop thought for a moment, and quickly complied. Leafy was rejoiced and, in favor of that, hugged Teardrop super tightly.

"So, when after the build? I'm up for anytime." She whisper-shouted. "Unless it's in a billion years."
Teardrop ripped something out of her notebook and gave it Leafy. "Oh!" The paper read, "In a month or two."

"I'll be there!" She said and skipped out of the room. Leafy should probably look where she's going..

BONK!

"Ouch!" Leafy was on the verge of tears. Teardrop rushed down the stairs toward her. Leafy started crying. Teardrop patted her on the head, for she couldn't really ask 'are you ok?'. Leafy knew either way, "I'm.. Ok, but thank you for checking."
Teardrop sighed and gave her an accepting nod. She got up and walked back into her room.

-

Leafy's head really hurt, but she was probably going to be fine, right? Leafy looked around for Teardrop. Darn, she went back into their room. "What now?" She murmured to herself. Leafy decided that she would just get up and face whatever was next.

Unfortunately, that was not possible.

She just sat there, her head throbbing. Teardrop noticed, though, and came back down, bringing her note book this time. Leafy didn't feel like reading, though.. Teardrop just situated herself next to Leafy, doodling in her notebook. "What are you drawing? Does it involve me?" Leafy asked. Teardrop ripped out the page and shoved it in Leafy's face.

A poorly drawn wheelchair. "A wheelchair? I don't need a wheelchair!" Leafy protested, "I need medical assistance. Teardrop ripped out another note and shoved it in Leafy's face.
Are you ok? Does your head hurt? "No, I just need for you to call the paramedics.." Leafy confided.

Teardrop shook her head and helped Leafy up, "Ouch! My head.." Teardrop pat her head and helped her to their room.

-

It was later in the morning when everyone was chatting and eating breakfast. Leafy had bandages on her head, even though she had insisted otherwise.
"Leafy, are you ok? Why do you have those bandages..?" Firey asked as everyone turned to see, "I was rushing down the stairs and I tripped. Thankfully, Teardrop was there to help." Leafy responded. Firey let out a relieved breathe, "As long as you're safe."

-

Leafy was sitting on the porch, contemplating on why no blood came out of her head when Coiny came rushing through the door and almost hit Leafy again. "Oh, sorry! I didn't see you there.." "No worries. Where ya heading off to?"
Coiny shrugged at the question, "Nowhere, really. Lollipop just asked me to run some errands for her.." Leafy smiled, "Can I help?"
"I would love some, but no sorry, I don't wanna get in trouble.. She said the tasks were specifically for me." He said briskly and walked off.

"Huh, what's his problem?"
