A Boat ride & A Flashback

🍫Willy's P.O.V🍫

We walked to the riverbank and watched as our boat pulled up. The oompa loompas laughed as they stopped the boat.

"What's so funny?" Asked Violet.

"It must be from all the cocoa beans" said Wendy.

"Hey by the way did you guys know that chocolate contains a property that triggers the realize if endorphins, gives one the feeling of being in love" I said.

"You don't say" Ms. Beauregarde said smiling at me.

I swallowed hard. "All aboard!" I said everyone got on Charlie sat beside his grandfather and Wendy sat beside Charlie and I sat with Wendy.

We left the river bank and I grabbed the pink ladle off the side of the boat and dipped it into the river.

I handed it to Charlie. "Here" I said "try some of this it'll do you good, you look starved to death."

"It's great!" Exclaimed Charlie.

"That's because it's mixed by the waterfall" said Wendy "the waterfall is very important it mixes the chocolate-"

"You already said that" Veruca interrupted rudely.

Wendy frowned at her.

I hated it when people disrespected my little girl. I had to stick up for her.

"You're all very short, aren't you?" I asked them.

"Well yeah, we're children" sneered Violet.

"Well that's no excuse I was never as short as you" I said.

"You were once" insisted Mike.

"Was not!" Said Wendy "know why? Because he put that hat on his head."

"Yeah" I said "and look at your short little arms, you could never reach."

"Do you even remember what it was like to be a kid?" Asked Charlie.

"Oh boy, do I... do I?"

Wendy held my hand. "Remember my childhood instead, Daddy!" She said "that way you'll be happier!"

            🍫Willy's flashback 🍫

I thought back to the night my sweet little Wendy came into my life. It was just a few years after I found the oompa loompas. I was in the inventing room working on my new lollipops that change color when you suck on them, when an oompa loompa came up to me.

"Yes?" I asked.

He made some signs with his hands that meant "we found something on the door steps."

"That's impossible" I said "What did you find?"

He led me to the main corridor where half of the oompa loompas were huddled around a basket, staring into it.

"What's going on?" I asked them as I walked up to the basket.

I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw two big brown eyes staring at me from inside the basket.

IT WAS A BABY!

She stared at me and held out her little arms to me. "GA!" She sqeauled.

I backed away in fear but The oompa loompas pushed me forward. I looked down into the box at the baby. It seemed more like a little monster than a child back then.

I stared in shock at it for the longest time. One of the oompa loompas brought it a bottle of milk and held it to her mouth.

"No, no, no!" I said "don't feed it! It'll come back."

The oompa loompas all gave me a look.

I sighed, sat in a chair and looked at them playing with her, making funny faces and getting her to laugh.

One of them picked her up, brought her over to me and held her up to me.

"Nope, no way, I am not picking that thing up."

Despite my refusal, they placed the baby in my arms. Showing me how to hold her, properly.

She cooed contently in my arms. I stared down at it, suddenly something happened, I felt a warm fuzzy feeling in my chest.

She smiled up at me. "Da!" She said placing a little stubby hand on my cheek. That only made the feeling in my chest grow.

I turned to the oompa loompas."Did you guys hear that?" I asked them excited "she called me dada!"

They smiled.

She yawned a cute little yawn.

"Aw! I think I'll keep you!" I said "What do I call you though?"

She had already fell asleep though.

"I'll call you... hmm... Wendy! Yeah! Little Wendy Wonka."

           🍫End of flashback🍫

"Mr. Wonka! We're headed for a tunnel!" Charlie called.

I snapped out of it "Oh yeah! Full speed ahead."

It became dark as we went into the tunnel.

"How can they see were their going?" Asked Violet.

"They can't" said Wendy.

"There's no knowing where their going!" I said "switch on the lights!"

The lights came on and we went faster down the tunnel. Wendy gripped my arm and buried her face in my shoulder, she never liked the boat went it went fast. I patted her shoulder reassuringly.

"People!" I said "keep an eye out were passing some very important rooms here."

We came to the cream rooms and Wendy let go for a bit. We stared at the labels of the rooms: clotted cream, coffee cream, hair cream.

"What do you use hair cream for?" Asked Ms. Beauregarde.

"To lock in moisture" Wendy and I showed off our identical hairstyles.

"Whipped cream" said Charlie noticing our whipped cream room.

"Precisely" I said.

"That doesn't make any sense" snapped Veruca.

Wendy gave her a look. "For your information, whipped cream isn't whipped cream at all unless it's whipped by whips!" She told her.

"Everybody knows that!" I said.

"Well, I guess not everybody..." Wendy whispered to me.

I laughed softly.

We went a little farther down the river and we came to the inventing room.

"Stop the boat!" I hollered "I wanna show you guys something!"

AN: you know the drill, comments and☆'s please!
