Holly was back at Lilygear Lake, to check in with her new friend, Porkpatch. Ever since the incident, the two had become odd, yet fire forged friends. Holly smiled when she saw Porkpatch waving her boat down from his lily pad, so she anchored her boat, clambered onto the lily pads, and rushed over to him.

“It's been a while, Holly!” He said, smiling. “How’s Rosie doing since I last saw her?”

“Good, very good.” Holly stated. “Got out of the hospital today and the first thing she decides to do is go get ice cream with Bubba!”

This caused Porkpatch to burst out with laughter. “Now THAT’S how I know she’s feeling better!” He joked, knowing that was a true statement.

Rosie would only go out and about into town if she was feeling okay, something everyone and their mother knew to be true.

Holly chuckled. “Do you think we should go get something to eat, too?” She asked.

“Only if you want.” He replied, knowing Holly had a tendency to suggest to do something she doesn't want to do, because she thinks the other person wants to.

“Yeah, yeah I do.” She replied. “Where should we go?”

“I dunno. Maybe that new buffet place that opened up?” He suggested.

“Sure!” Holly said, liking the idea. “Let's go there! I've heard nothing but good things about that place!’

Porkpatch smiled a little at Holly’s enthusiasm, a far cry from her shy and reserved self. “Come on, let's go already!” He said.
