Leprechauns: The Truth

“Yes, I'm coming Bryan! Is there a dunny anywhere around here? I haven’t gone for almost 3 hours!” A girl!? Bobble listened in further but was overwhelmed by a rush of emotions. Curiosity, jealousy, annoyance and frustration. She wasn’t sure why she felt t his way but decided to put her emotions aside and start making her tent. She marched over to her camping gear on the grass and began to unpack and build up the tent. Finally, she stepped back and admired her work. Bobblina had built up her tent by herself, pride washed over her as she went back to her van to get her suitcase. As she walked over to the carpark, she saw Bryan and the unfamiliar girl leave to go to the main campsite office on the other side of the area, probably looking for the dunny. Suddenly, a sneaky thought drifted through her head and she smiled cunningly at their cramped little tent. Surely, they wouldn’t notice! Bobble consciously walked over to their tent and pulled down the zipper hesitantly. Only a little look. She peeked inside for any evidence or information about this girl who was accompanying Bryan. All of a sudden, nasty thoughts went through her head and she began to feel uncomfortable about sneaking through their stuff. She pulled away in an instant. “Oww!” she shrieked, then slapped her mouth with her hand, being conscious that she was not in a position she would like to be found in. As she fumbled with the zipper and the piece of hair tangled around it, it came out with some struggle. Just as Bobblina was about to sigh in relief at this easy escape, she heard the raspy voice of Bryan. “ Okay, okay, I know it’s hot Patricia! The water here might be a bit dirty. I’ ll just go get the water bottle from the tent; I ’ ll be back in a minute. ” Patricia?! Bobblina thought. Getting her priorities straight, she whizzed around, her heart thumping in her chest. As she was about to pull away, she accidentally knocked out the peg holding up the tent on the right side. In a panic, she got to her feet and stumbled across the campsite. She ran as fast as she could to the other side of the cave and hid, waiting until she would be exposed for her appalling and child-like behaviour. Chapter 4: A Block of Gold Bryan was suspicious. Not knowing that Bobblina was the one who picked out a pin from the tent by accident. He stopped caring about the tent coming down, he just wanted to put it back up. He stayed calm while Patricia kept sweating. “Don’t worry sweetie, we’ll fix the tent now, but I need your help again. Quick!” Immediately grabbing the pins and poles.

“But Bry, It’s so hot, I can’t!” Patricia replied. She knew she would get the tent done if she would help Bryan pitch it up as soon as possible.
