Branch waved goodbye to his brother Floyd. He was left with just his Grandma Rosiepuff. Branch knew that Floyd would come back soon, or maybe later? Who knew. 


[2 years later]

P: Hiya Branch! Whacha doing?

B: Nothing much.. I'm just waiting for my brother, Floyd. 

{Poppy was 4 and Branch was 6}

P: Ohh okay. Wanna go play with me and the Snack Pack?

B: Not really.. sorry Poppy..

P: It's totally fine! Don't worry Branch!

B: Thanks.. do you know where the backstreets are?

P: The what?

B: Nevermind..

{A troll with purple skin and blueish greenish hair with yellow overalls came up to Poppy}

P: Hi Creek!

C: Namaste Poppy. 

{Branch grumbled}

C: What are you doing with this stick collector?

 P: Oh, I'm hanging out with, Branch!

C: Wanna hang out with me instead?

P: Lets all hang out together! 

{Creek groans, but then looks at Poppy}

C: Fine.

P: Yay!

B: Nope. No way. I.. uh gotta go help my.. uh.. Grammy! Yeah, aha..

P: Okay.. see you later Branch!

{Branch ran off}

C: Finally he's gone. 

P: What?

C: Nothing.

Branch absolutely hated Creek. His calm attitude, his way of "pretending" and his way of fooling other trolls! He'd rather have a remote for a friend than Creek. 

{Branch arrived home}

RP: Oh hello, Branch!

B: Hi..

RP: Are you okay sweetie?

B: Yes..

RP: Still missing your brothers?

B: Yeah..

RP: Aw.. come here.

{Rosiepuff held her arms out and gave Branch a hug}

B: He said he'd be back.. 

{Branch sniffled}

RP: I know.. I know..

B: D-did he lie to me..?

RP: No.. he wouldn't..

B: O-okay..

{Rosiepuff hugged Branch until he felt better}

---

B: I feel better now.. Thanks Grammy..

RP: That's good. Now, I want to see a smile on your face!

B: Yes Gram!

{Branch smiled and ran outside}

{Guy Diamond was waving to Branch from a distance}

GD: Hi Branch!

B: Hey Guy.

GD: What are you up to?

B: Not sure.

GD: Oh. Alright. Wanna try to find Smidge with me?

B: Why? 

GD: W-well, um, she's a really good hider and I just suck at this and if I find it I'll get to use her glitter gun!

B: Oh, um, okay.

{The two trolls spent the rest of the day trying to find Smidge}

B: This is taking forever! 

GD: Yeah! Sorry Branch, but you can go back to your pod now. Byeee!

{Guy Diamond walks into his pod}

GD: Hi Mom! Hi Smid- SMIDGE?! YOU WERE HERE THE WHOLE TIME?!

B: WHAT!?

{Branch walked away annoyed}

B: Time. Wasted.
