A Wave Tossed in the Ocean enjoyed the ride with Henry to their destination except for Les. He couldn't keep those negative thoughts out of his head. Felix kept noticing that Les was very distant. This wasn't like Les. He would normally be very excited about the tour. Once they made it to the city of their first show, they decided to get makan malam before going to the hotel. They stopped at a pizza parlor. Les was grazing at it. Henry asked, "Are anda all right, Les?" Les said, "I'm fine." Henry then said, "You've hardly touched your food. Are anda sure you're all right?" Les said, "I'm just tired."...

"All right!" cried Charles happily. "Time to get out there and tampil ourselves to the world again!"
"We're back on the road!" laughed Jimmy in agreement, and they slapped their hands together in something between a handshake and a high-five.
The band and Henry were waiting outside for their car to come and take them to their first destination. Mostly Charles and Jimmy had been doing the talking, Charles enthusiastically wondering how their fan would like the new songs he'd spent their break working on, and Jimmy encouraging him.
"I've been dying for our fan to hear this one. I think it's my best...

It had been a while since A Wave Tossed in the Ocean had been on tour. The last time they went on tour, they had to end it early. Towards the final leg of the tour, Henry had a jantung attack. Thankfully, it was a mild one, and the doctor berkata that he would make a full recovery. The band decided to batal the remainder of the tour and issue refunds to their fans. They also needed time to rest and relax themselves after such an extensive tour. Some time passed, and Henry was up to travelling again, as long as he didn't lift anything heavy, which he knew his boys wouldn't mind. He berkata to them,...

Hank and Paul arranged the double tanggal with Charity and Maeve. When the boys arrived at the restaurant, Hank asked, "Are anda nervous, Paul?" Paul said, "A little." Hank said, "It'll be all right. You'll see." Once they made it inside the restaurant, they found that Charity and Maeve were already waiting for them. Before the boys could say anything, Charity berkata to Paul, "You must be Paul. I feel like I know so much about anda because of how much Hank talks about you." Paul blushed. "Hank talks about me? What does he say?" She said, "He talks about how you've helped him so many times over the...

When the thirty menit were up, Hank and Paul's father came back into the room. Paul and Hank still weren't looking at each other, but neither one was quite as angry anymore.
"That's better," their father said. "Now, let me see if I can figure this out. I know my sons, you've always been as different as anda can be, but I've seen anda be best friends and support each other since anda could both talk...."
Paul and Hank glanced at each other and quickly looked away again, both slightly ashamed.
Their father leaned against a meja with his arms folded, looking at both his sons intently. "So anda must...

Later that afternoon, when Hank and Paul got home, Paul told Hank, "I have some exciting news!" Hank said, "I do too, but I'm willing to let anda tell me first." Paul said, "I got a date!" Hank said, "Really? Me too!" Paul said, "That's so cool! What's she like?" Hank said, "Her name is Charity. She was at the cheerleader tryouts. What's your tanggal like?" Paul said, "Her name is Maeve. She is in the drama club. We got the lead for the upcoming play. She came here last year, but she was scared to try out for the school plays." Hank said, "I've heard of Maeve. Isn't she the weirdo everyone says...

Meanwhile, Hank and his buddies all met in the school gymnasium to watch the cheerleader tryouts. As they took their seats they discussed who might be selected.
"I hope we get some pretty cheerleaders this year. Last year's batch were good and all, but kinda plain, anda know?"
"Yeah. We want someone who looks like - that blonde girl down there. Know who she is, Hank?"
As his friend asked the question, Hank looked down to see. His friend was pointing at an unfamiliar girl, chatting happily away with two of last year's cheerleaders with a bright smile on her face. She had fluffy, curly hair the colour...

When Paul went to the drama club, he saw some familiar faces. His friends were there. There were also some acquaintances he had been with in school plays in the past. He saw one girl who he had not seen before. She kept her long, brown hair in a ponytail, and she wore blue jeans. She seemed laid back and fairly quiet. Was she the one for him? At the very least, they could possibly be good friends. She took notice of him too. She said, "Hello." He thought she seemed friendly enough, so he berkata "hello" back. She said, "I'm Maeve. What's your name?" He said, "I'm Paul. Are anda new here?" She said,...

Things had been going pretty well for Hank and Paul since both had passed their drivers' tests. The brothers felt like best friends again lebih than ever, now that Hank's buddies had stopped bothering Paul. And now that they were both driving, lebih extracurriculars, taking place all over their city and not just at the school, were an option for them - which was very exciting.
"How's the new theatre group, Paul?" There was a bit of a laugh in Hank's voice, from the part of him that could not understand for the life of him what there was to enjoy about theatre, but Paul could still tell he was...

Hello, everyone! Antonia here, and this is my last blog of 2023. Of course, it'll be 2024 oleh the time anda all see this, so it could also count as my first blog of 2024. Without further ado, I'll get right to the message.

What a tahun this has been! Paul and I moved into our house earlier this year. Jan moved close to us with her cousin, and we made a new friend in her new girlfriend, Ella.

With that being said, this tahun wasn't without heartache. We lost our sweet Saturn over the summer. We still miss him very much. He was gone too soon, but he left behind beautiful memories, and we will always...

At Hank's football game, though, Paul got quite the surprise.
Hank was doing really well on the field, and even though Paul didn't really like atau understand football, he was sitting in the front row cheering for his brother. He could see Hank and his friends on the benches whenever they weren't on the field, excitedly talking about all the places they could drive now, and he was just happy Hank was happy.
At halftime, while Hank was cooling off with some water and Paul was considering going to get something to eat, three of Hank's friends whispered together for a few moments, staring right at...

Hello, everyone! Antonia here, and I cannot believe it's that time of tahun again where I post the annual holiday message. Without further ado, I'll get right to it.

For the first time ever, Paul and I are hosting Christmas. Things went so well when we hosted Thanksgiving, we decided to host natal this year. We're going to have a wonderful meal. We'll be having lamb, daging babi asap, bacon wrapped green beans (we use turkey bacon), twice baked potatoes, and for dessert, we're having natal cookies. I'm looking meneruskan, ke depan to this meal.

We're having a nice gathering. Our dear friend, John, has come to stay through...

After fifteen days passed, Hank was finally able to retake his driver's test. Before Hank began his test, he took a few deep breaths and berkata to himself, "Don't overthink it. Just do it, just like Paul said." This time, it was clear that Hank was very focused. After finishing the test, the instructor said, "Well done, Hank. That was so much better." Hank smiled. He then returned to Paul and his mother. Hank said, "I did it. I passed the test." Paul hugged Hank and said, "Congratulations! I knew anda could do it!" Hank said, "It's all thanks to you." Paul smiled. "I'm always happy to help. What...

Even though Paul was happy he'd diberikan Hank the tools he needed to pass his driver's test when he was allowed to retake it, he would have diberikan anything to protect Hank from the looks on his friends' faces when he had to face them the following hari and tell them he hadn't passed.
"What? anda failed??"
"How does a tough guy like anda fail anyway? You're the bintang of our football team!"
"I thought only bayi failed their driver's tests."
If Paul had been the same type of guy that these friends were, he would have punched them. Instead he put his arm around Hank's shoulders and led him away from them...

The selanjutnya afternoon, Paul was waiting for Hank just like he said. It didn't take long for Paul to notice that Hank looked pale. Paul asked, "Are anda all right?" Hank said, "I'm fine." Paul said, "I know you're not." Hank said, "I feel like there's a knot in my stomach." Paul said, "I see. There's a way to get rid of it." Hank asked, "What's that?" Paul said, "Just slowly take some deep breaths in and out." Hank asked, "Does that really work?" Paul said, "Yes, just try it." Hank slowly took some deep breaths in and out. He said, "I feel better now. Thanks, Paul." Paul smiled, "Always happy to...

At first, Paul got no answer. He heard some funny gasping, choking noises coming from inside Hank's bedroom. "Hank? It's me, Paul. I know you're in there."
More gulps for air, and then, "Okay. Come in."
Paul opened the door and stepped into his brother's room, which was full of model cars, posters of athletes and action movies, and lots of football gear. Hank sat on his bed, head downcast, looking lebih forlorn than Paul had seen him in a long time. He was gasping for breath and blinking hard, and Paul realized his brother was trying very hard not to cry.
"You know, if anda need to let it out,"...

The selanjutnya morning, Hank and Paul were going to take their test. The instructor told them, "I can only test one of anda at a time. Who wants to go first?" Once again, Hank requested to let Paul go first. Paul looked back at Hank. Hank tried to hide how stressed he was and said, "Good luck, Paul." Paul said, "Thanks, Hank." Pretty soon, Paul began his test. He took a deep breath and thought, Don't overthink this. Just remember what Dad taught you. Once he completed the test, the instructor said, "Nicely done, Paul. anda have passed with flying colors." Paul returned to Hank and his mother. Paul...

"Hey, future drivers!" Paul and Hank's father approached them after makan malam that night, jingling the car keys in his hands. "Who wants to come along and do a little practising?"
Paul, who had been membaca a musik magazine on the couch, and Hank, who had been watching a movie with a lot of explosions on the TV nearby, both sat up. "I do!"
Soon, the three of them sat in the car in a mostly empty parking lot. "Who's going first?" their dad asked.
"Let Paul go first." This answer surprised Paul. Normally his brother was lebih than eager to be first at everything.
"You feeling okay, buddy?" Their father...

Two years had passed since Paul's victory at the talent show. He and Hank were still close with each other. They were now sixteen, and today was the hari they were going to take their driver's tests. Hank was chatting with two of his friends as they were getting ready to leave the school. One of them asked him, "What kind of car are anda hoping to drive?" He said, "I'm thinking either a sports car atau maybe one of those muscle cars like my grandpa used to collect." The detik one of his friends said, "That's cool. You'll look so tough in it." Hank smiled. The first friend then asked, "What'll...
