Chapter 33: Hoppy Hopscotch Vs KickinChicken: Broken Hearts

Bobby was in her locker room after the duel, waiting for PickyPiggy to arrive.

“I hope she got the message…” She said as she then heard a knock, “Oh! Come in!”

PickyPiggy opened the door and closed it to meet with Bobby.

“Ya want me, Bobby?” She asked her, “How can I help ya?”

“Y-Yes… Here, sit down, because…” Bobby replied as she sat on the bench, blushing, “...it’s… embarrassing…”

“Embarrassing?”

PickyPiggy chuckled as she sat next to her.

“Why do ya think what you're about to say is–” She said as she was interrupted,

“--I LOVE YOU!” Bobby shouted as she gasped and covered her mouth after realizing what she has said,

PickyPiggy blushed as she looked around.

“...Uhh… Could ya repeat what ya just said?” She asked,

Bobby let out a big sigh.

“...I'm sorry, I just got a little carried away.” She replied, “But what I said was serious. …I have feelings for you, Picky, literally.”

“Really?” PickyPiggy said,

“Really. I mean… As time goes by, and when we get older, you start to get all… protective and… tough.”

“Ain't that DogDay and Hoppy?”

“Well, yeah, but you're different from them. They're always alive and full of energy. You're very… calm. …I actually do like someone very calm.”

PickyPiggy chuckled a bit.

“Come on, Bobby…” She said, “This is getting too lovey-dovey around here.”

“Sorry… sorry…” Bobby said,

“It's fine, ha ha… However, if what you're saying is true, then just know that I always look forward to trying new things throughout my life…”

“Huh? What are you talking–”

PickyPiggy then kissed Bobby on her face. She blushed ever so hard.

“Does that make ya better?” She asked Bobby,

Bobby then got up.

“I-I'm sorry, but I need a moment!” She shouted as she left the locker room,

PickyPiggy then laughed.

“I finally solved whatever problem she has!” She said, “...However that goes… Oh well, I got a girlfriend now and I'm happy!”

Hoppy meanwhile was chatting with DogDay.

“So this is it.” DogDay said, “You'll be dueling… Kickin…”

“We were childhood buddies to a couple…” Hoppy said, “Using ourselves as a way of stirring up trouble during our time together…”

“Yeah, that was very unhealthy and toxic for your mental and emotional health. Coming from someone that was a victim of that sorta abuse.”

Hoppy sighed.

“Well we abuse ourselves and each other without realizing.” She said, “And now I'm not gonna let that happen again, because I need to do something about it when our duel comes.”
