Tommy Pickles: The Terrible Twos (Series; Pt 2)

Tommy the Interpreter Pt 4

Hello hello everyone, hoo boy it's been a couple weeks now hasn't it. I apologize, what started out as a missed weekend turned into a week of recovery from a cold and then to top it off getting hit with procrastination and writer's block defintely didn't help. But that's alright, I'm here to provide the next chapter now and I hope you all enjoy!

"But guys, we gots plenty of times to do that stuffs when we actually goes to preschool!" Tommy frowned, wondering why his friends we're acting this way

Before either Kimi or Chuckie could say anything in reply to Tommy, Phil and Lil also arrived as they made their way out to the backyard.

"Hey guys, whatcha doing?" Phil asked

"Oh, hi Phil, hi Lil. I was just asking Chuckie and Kimi if they wanted to plays with Dilly and me." Tommy replied

Both Phil and Lil stopped in their tracks, giving each other a look, before they burst out laughing.

"Oh Tommy, you're so silly!" Lil exclaimed

"Yeah, you knows we're way to olds for silly stuffs like playing roll the ball and tag." Phil chimed in, stifling a laugh

Tommy could only look in shock and confusion as he looked back over at Chuckie and Kimi who were nodding in agreement with Phil and Lil.

"That's what we were telling hims." Chuckie said

"Come on, Tommy we'll do something more big kid propriate for all of us to do." Kimi said, taking Tommy's hand as she dragged him away from Dil.

"But what about Dil? Shouldn't we asks him to comes with us?" Tommy asked, glancing over at his brother, who had seemingly gotten distracted by Tommy's ball

"What for?" Lil asked

"Yeah it's not like we can understands what he's saying anyways." Phil replied

"What don't be ridicurous, we can still understands him. Watch." Tommy said, pulling away from Kimi as he ran over to Dil

"Hey Dil, what's your favoritest thing in the whole wide world?" Tommy asked his younger brother

"Goober!" Dil replied

However, to everyone (including Tommy) Dil's response came out as baby babble much like it did when he was only still a couple months old and couldn't say much.

"Se-huh, wait Dil can you says that again?" Tommy said, surprised to hear the baby babble

Of course when Dil repeated his words just for the results to be the same, Tommy could only take a step back in shock. He really couldn't understand Dil anymore! Turning back to his friends, he saw them all give him an unsatisfied look.

"See, we told ya." Phil said, crossing his arms

"Come on Tommy, we can go do something else." Chuckie gestured for Tommy to follow

"Yeah! Maybe we can keep practising how to drives a car!" Lil exclaimed in excitement

"Well...okays." Tommy murmured before following his friends as he then stopped and waved goodbye to his brother.. "Have fun, Dilly."

Running to catch up with his friends, he entered inside the house as it shifted into some weird hybrid room that looked like something between Tommy's living room and the classroom at the Woodbury school that they had visited a few weeks before for preschool evaluations. Looking around, Tommy saw his friends going about doing various activities like reading books, or writing things down, or even watching videos on how to drive on the t.v near the back with several other kids. Chuckie and Kimi waved Tommy down to come over to the table they were sitting at as Tommy made his way over to them.

"We saveded you a seat! We're practicising how to write our abds and even our names." Kimi said as Tommy took a seat between his two friends

Of course, being the older ones of the trio, Chuckie and Kimi didn't have any trouble writing out the many letters of the alphabet on the worksheet in front of them. Tommy could only stare at the sheet, he didn't want to do this right now! He could be playing with Dil i or they could all be going on some big fun adventure together instead, However, when Tommy was trying to get up from his spot, he realized he couldn't move as he struggled to get out of the chair.

"You gots to finish your work before you can go play Tommy, that's the rulers for us big kids." Chuckie commented after taking notice of Tommy's struggling

"But guys I don't know how to writes my abds, I barely even gets them all right." Tommy huffed, trying to get up with no avail.

"Just try it out Tommy, you might knows more than you thinks you knows." Kimi assured Tommy

After a bit more struggling, Tommy let out a sigh of defeat as he grabbed the crayon and looked at the worksheet, He then began writing his alphabet out in, surprisingly, the correct order. He continued writing away in what felt like hours but yet may have been only a few minutes if it were reality. What Tommy didn't know was as he was writing out his alphabet, he physically began growing older and older. Soon Tommy was an "adult" much how he was seen in a dream once before where he and Chuckie became adults once before. Snapping out of it, Tommy took notice of the change around him as he was now seemingly in an office and the worksheet turned into a tall stack of paperwork. What he saw next shocked him the most; Chuckie and Kimi were also "adults" now as they scribbled away on their paperwork. Startled Tommy jumped up from his seat, backing away from the table.

"Oh Tommy, if you're going to takes a break, can you make sure Dil gets his lunch. You know how fussy he gets." Chuckie said, not even looking up

Tommy, still mostly freaked out, turned to see Dil sitting in the playpen at the exact same age he was currently in reality as he played with his Goober toy. This couldn't be happening! He couldn't be a boring adult that didn't get to do anything fun! There had to be a mistake! Trying to run away, Tommy ran out of the room and down a hallway before making a turn around a corner. However, turning the corner had him crash into Phil and Lil who were carrying stacks of paper.

"Oh good! We were just going to brings these to yous." Lil said

"No, I don't want to be a growed up! I don't wanna!" Tommy yelled, starting to tear up and cry

In that next instance, Tommy awoken from his nighterror as he quickly pat himself down only to let out a sigh of relief when he realized it was all a nightmare. Taking the chance, Tommy took his night trip to the bathroom before returning to bed as he laid back down and started at the dark ceiling. Surely, even if they had to do a bunch of boring stuff at school, that wouldn't make them boring grown ups. Right? That's what Tommy was hoping for as he drifted off back to sleep once again.
