A Toy Friend's History (A Poppy Playtime Story)

One Last Goodbye (43)

Reader's POV

After my fun night with Troy, I got into my car to see the toys at the factory for my mini party. It was currently 3pm in the afternoon and 23rd of December.

I walked in the factory and it was pure silent. I continued walking all around until I reached the centre of the factory.

Suddenly glitter was thrown and there was balloons with the toys jumping around the room shouting, "Surprise!" in unison.

"Thank you so much! Oh my goddess!"

"We just wanted to congratulate you on getting married!" Candy Cat said.

"Show me the ring!" Kissy said as she lifted up my hand. "It's so pretty!"

"Aww! Troy is so lucky to have you!" PJ said.

"I'm happy for you!" Poppy exclaimed.

I thanked all the toys as they all started to calm down.

"Poppy has something to tell you," Mommy stated.

"Huh?"

"I think your time here is done so it's time to confess.. I'm Elliot Lugwig's daughter," Poppy announced.

"Holy shit-"

"Yeah that was the big secret," Bron sighed.

"Do you hate me?" Poppy asked.

"What? No of course not!" I said.

Daisy shouted a "Whoo! Whoo!"

"Yeah.. honestly I'm just ashamed of it. I'm really sorry for taking so long to trust you," Poppy apologised.

"Aww.. Poppy does have emotions!" I teased.

"Oh shut up!" Poppy rolled her eyes and giggled.

Mommy oddly enough stayed quiet the whole time I was there, but I didn't care since I had all the others. They even made me cards and used paper that the children used to use for creating fan mail.

Narrator

Around 7pm, Huggy walked you out of the factory. Luckily it was December so it got very dark at like the most earliest times.

"Did you enjoy yourself?"

"Of course! Thank you for doing that," you said.

"No problem! As long as you keep your promise on visiting us. Oh- uh I need to give you something also.." Huggy trailed off.

"What is it?" you asked.

Huggy Wuggy suddenly handed you a letter. It was your mum's hand writing.

Dear Head Of Innovation,

I think we must put a stop to all this history of the factory. We must leave the toys alone. I understand they may cause harm, but it may not help by being hypocritical.

I have a lovely daughter who's 5 years old named Y/N. As a mother this may sound like nothing to you and I know I'm not as important as Evelyn's role is, but I want you to think deeply about what you're doing. This isn't right. They're children just as much as our fans.

Please just think about it empathetically.

From yours sincerely,
Rowan L/N

"Why are you showing me this now?"

"To show you why no one really wanted to hurt you," Huggy replied. "Your mum tried to save us. She sent thousands of complaints."

"Yeah I bet she did," you smiled softly.

"You can keep it. Think of it as a gift from us. We have many more letters of hers to remember you," Huggy returned the smile.

"Thanks Huggy Wugs."

I finally made it back home to Troy and Sombrio. Troy was finally putting up the Christmas decorations.

"Geez. I thought we'd never do that!"

"Yeah honestly I almost forgot! Also I've got good news!" Troy said.

"Oh do tell," I smirked and kissed his cheek.

"Tomorrow and on Christmas it's going to snow!"

"You know they say that almost every time and it's never accurate?"

"Yes, but the chances are high! C'mon have a little hope!" Troy wrapped his arms around me from behind and started wrapping Christmas lights around me.

"Troy- I'm not the Christmas tree," I chuckled as he turned off the main living room lights and turned on the Christmas lights wrapped around me.

"Wow.. you're glowing!"

"What did you expect?" I giggling and turned the lights off and turned the living rooms lights back on.

"By the way how did your day with the toys go?"

"Really good! Huggy gave me a card of my mum writing to the upper people about not torturing the toys or whatever."

"She was a nice lady. Bit of a weird gift though," Troy stated as Nanny Delaney came in with Eco and Cynthia (Eco's girlfriend).

"Oh my god hi Cynth!" I ran up to Cynthia and hugged her. Me and her were on good terms.

Eco sighed, "Sometimes it feels like you've known Cynthia longer than me."

"Aww don't be silly!" Cynthia said.

I gave Eco a big hug as I started talking to Nanny.

"You look more like your mother everyday.. aww come here!" Nanny Delaney said as she quickly pulled me into a hug.

"I missed you!"

"I missed you too! I needed to ask you something."

"What is it?" I asked.

"Well.. your dad is in contact with me a lot now and he wanted to know if you maybe wanted him to show up for Christmas."

"Dosen't he have his own family by now? Like kids.. new wife?"

Nanny shook her head, "Nope! That man completely stuck by his vows and never got with someone else!"

"Uh.. sure!"
