Alright now readers, here is the 9th and final part to this chapter.
Now I should say to you all, I really enjoyed making this story. I really have, even though it took me nearly 2 weeks to finally finish it. I hope on making other stories for this series after this one!
Also, for this chapter, I will make mention of the Status Quo, and actually avoid the Status Quo is God trope entirely in regards to Lori's character development in this story. I promise you all that.
Now there isn't much to this chapter; this chapter is just a means to wrap up the story and put an end to it. How will the ending go? What has Lori learned from this experience? And will she have a working phone again? Find out now!
AT THE LOUD HOUSE RESIDENCE (THE SAME DAY):
We are now focused back at the Loud House where Lincoln and Lori arrived back to after going to the Community Pool and the Mall for a bit. Lori was planning on revealing those two tickets to Lincoln pretty soon, but she decided to wait for a bit. Currently we are focused in Lincoln's room where the 11 year old boy was speaking through a walkie talkie and talking to his best friend Clyde for a bit. We then start to listen in onto the conversation they were having.
"So uh…how have things being going for you lately Lincoln?" Clyde was the one to ask that.
"Well Clyde, if I have to be honest, I've been feeling great lately, and I haven't felt this great in such a long time," Lincoln spoke. "You see, my oldest sister Lori has been much nicer to me lately."
The mention of the eldest sister's name got Clyde's full attention.
"L-L-Lori," He then started gushing about her. "Sweet, beautiful, pretty, sexy Lori…"
"Clyde, focus," Lincoln got him to stop and informed him. "My oldest sister has been becoming a much better sister to me and to the other sisters! She has stopped treating us like slaves, she hasn't called any of us a 'twerp', she had stopped hogging the bathroom, the TV, and everything else you can think of, and she also haven't gotten angry at me for entering her room or threatened to turn me into a human pretzel! In fact, recently she has allowed me to go into her room when she was in it and wouldn't get mad at it. I'm just happy that she has become a far better and nicer sister!"
"That's great news Lincoln," Clyde shouted with enthusiasm.
"I know it is buddy," Lincoln agreed. "Whenever I ask her I need a ride to anywhere I need to go, she brings me there without any hassle and she doesn't force me to do favors for her. She has done a lot for me this past week. Heck, she even saved me when these three tough guys were planning on beating me up! I really do appreciate the way she has been acting lately."
"Well I'm happy for you bro," Clyde then explained. "It's like someone once told me, you should always appreciate the help and support of those that have your back in any situation."
"Yeah I get that. I'm just thrilled that Lori has been approving her behavior, her attitude and personality."
"Yeah. Lori," It was then Clyde started gushing about her again. "The most beautiful sexy woman a guy could lay his eyes on, what with her beautiful golden lock hair, her deeply beautiful eyes, a gorgeous bum, and a sizeable bust to top it off…"
Lincoln sighed as he gushed about that, knowing how he is with Lori. Fortunately for him, his sighing actually got Clyde's attention and got him to focus once again.
"Oh, sorry about that Lincoln," He told him. "Well, I got to go now. There are some important businesses that I need to attend to at the moment. I do wish you good luck through all of this bro."
"Thanks for that bud," Lincoln smiled. "See ya later bro."
"Yeah. See ya."
Once he said that did the call through the walkie talkie end and then Lincoln put the device back onto the dresser and got back onto his bed shortly afterwards. Lincoln was thinking about everything his eldest sister had done for him in the past week and realized this was a huge change in her behavior. Perhaps going with her phone has caused her to see the light and as a result, she made the attempt to change herself and become a better sister. His mind then went back to the time where he wrote that nasty note on 'Why Lori is the Worst Sister Ever?' and that he was completely wrong about that. Lori was not the worst sister ever. She was far from it as a matter of fact. Truth be told, Lincoln didn't find any of his sisters to be the worst. True, they all have their flaws and there are days where they aren't so friendly at all, but deep down inside, he knew that all of his sisters have their redeeming moments where they truly care for each other and where they do care about Lincoln. He then started to wonder what Lori was doing at the moment and wondered if she needed him for some assistance for the moment. He then wondered if she was still missing her cell phone at all and if she still missed talking to her boyfriend, although the way she's been acting lately, it seems that she may have forgotten about her cell phone withdrawal and that she quite possibly fought off her Nomophobia issue once and for all. Still, it wouldn't hurt to check on her and see if she was doing good or not, wouldn't it?
I guess it wouldn't hurt if I decide to check up on her and see how she is doing with her cell phone withdrawal. Lincoln thought, rubbing his chin. After all, she does allow me to enter her room now with no problems or hassles about it anymore, so maybe it is best if I check up on her for a minute or so.
Shrugging his shoulders, he felt it was a good idea and that the decision was finally. Stretching out for a minute or so, Lincoln then got off his bed, approached his door and opened it, and then left his room to make the short trek all the way to Lori and Leni's bedroom…
Meanwhile, in the aforementioned room, we see Lori lying on her bed, on her stomach as she was barefoot and her legs were crossed and Lori was reading through a Sixteen Magazine to pass the time, for she was doing so much better with her Nomophobia problem she had the previous week. Throughout that week, she has also done so much better with herself and has been nicer to all of her siblings, especially Lincoln. Indeed. She was quite proud of it. Her purse was hanging on the side of her bed as she still had those two tickets that she bought at the mall last week. She really had to show those to Lincoln soon. She felt like she should do it now while she had the chance.
Maybe now should be a perfect time to show those tickets to Lincoln. She thought to herself. Before something else comes up, I at least want to show him what I did for him after hearing what he told me at the mall when I was getting my toenails painted. Its official. I'm going to tell him.
She then put the magazine to the side and got up and sat up on her bed. Before she could get up and head for the door, a knock was then heard at the door, getting her attention. She then decided to holler out.
"It's unlocked! You can come it!"
Once the door was opened, it was revealed to be none other, than Lincoln. Just the person she was looking for. Lincoln decided to step into her room, and decided to speak.
"Hey Lori, I was just checking to see how you have been doing," He questioned her as she then grew a smile on her face.
"I've been good little bro," Lori exclaimed. "You're just the person I've been looking for! There's something that I've got to show you!"
Lincoln now looked curious as to what Lori was talking about. She had already given him so many surprises already so to speak, so what else could she have in store for him? Despite this however, he simply shrugged and asked.
"What do you have for me sis?"
"It's a surprise Lincy, and trust me, you'll love it." Lori then went to her purse to pull out the special surprise for him. Lincoln was now really confused as to what she was talking about. Did she decide to give Lincoln an extra surprise for being in a good and better mood last week? From what he had to put up with through this whole scenario, she was completely full of surprises for him. Before he could question her further, she gasped and found what she was looking for.
"Ah, there is it! I found it," Lori took out the surprise and then decided to cuff her hand into a fist and then showed it to her brother. "You ready for the surprise Linc?"
He nodded as she then spoke.
"Alright. Here it is. Ta da!" With that said she opened her fist and revealed the surprise and once Lincoln got a good look at it, what he saw left him speechless as a shocked look crossed his face.
What was in the palm of Lori's hand was two movie tickets, but they weren't any ordinary tickets. No, these were tickets to go see the Ace Savvy movie that was going to be airing in theaters Tuesday (which was tomorrow) and from the looks of it, Lori had went through the trouble to get him a ticket to see said movie. Not believing what he was seeing, he then slowly asked her.
"Are…are those…?" He couldn't finish as he was too surprised to speak, but luckily, Lori nodded and answered his question.
"Yes bro," She nodded and revealed. "Those are movie tickets to go see the Ace Savvy movie that is airing tomorrow."
A few minutes have passed with silence shrouding the two of them before Lincoln finally found his voice.
"You…you actually got these," He asked as his eldest sister nodded again. "W-When did you get these tickets?"
"Well you remember the day we went to mall to get my toenails painted?" She reminded him.
He nodded as she continued.
"Well you see, after I got them painted, I saw that the tickets were on sale and they were going to be airing the movie on Tuesday, and I really wanted to treat you to something nice little bro." She answered while smiling.
A part of his heart was feeling touched by this gesture when he noticed something peculiar; there were actually two movie tickets to go see the movie, which got him puzzled as a result.
"But Lori, there are two tickets," He pointed out the obvious. "Why did you get two movie tickets to see this movie?"
Lori then snorted in a playful manner and then answered.
"Duh silly, that's because I am literally going to be joining you to watch the movie tomorrow." She answered, resulting in Lincoln gasping in complete shock and was taken aback by this. His oldest sister wanted to watch the movie with him, and it shocked him because none of his sisters wanted to do the things that he enjoyed doing no matter how much he does for them and the fact that he joins them in things they love doing. This got him very surprised as he then wanted an answer from his oldest sister.
"Why Lori," He questioned. "Why did you get a ticket for yourself to see the movie with me?"
Lori was expecting this question to come up and she knew she had to be honest with him. As a result, she then knelt down to his level and brought her hand onto his head.
"Well Lincoln, do you remember when I asked you why you do stuff for us despite the fact that you don't enjoy the tasks personally and you told me how no one would join you in things you love doing?"
Lincoln started frowning at that, making him feel sad again as he nodded. Lori then revealed to him.
"Well little bro, I really felt bad for not joining you in the stuff that you enjoy doing, especially after all the stuff you do for us and how you are always there to support us in any situation whatsoever, you felt unappreciated and that none of us would join you in things you love doing. So I decided to buy tickets for the both of us because I want to spend time with you doing something you enjoy doing and I felt this movie would be something that you would love to see, and really, I just want you to know that I do love you for all the stuff you do for us. That's why I am wanting to join you to seeing this movie in theaters tomorrow, so you could feel appreciated, and even though the others haven't done so yet, I want to at least make sure I show you how much I appreciate it and join you in something you love doing. Do you understand what I'm saying, Lincy?"
Lincoln nodded slowly as he felt his heart being touched more than before. She was willing to give up her time and what she likes just for him. There was still one more question that came to his mind and it confused him like heck.
"But what about that date with Bobby you were so hyped about last Sunday? The day you dropped your phone in the toilet," He questioned. "You were hyped to go to that date with him and the date is actually tomorrow."
Lori realized he was right, but in all honesty, she was no longer too upset about it as she had learned something from this scenario. Due to that, she sighed and then told him.
"Lincoln, it's true that I do have a date with him tomorrow, but you know what? I'm going to sacrifice that date just to spend the day with you doing what you enjoy doing," Lori spoke. "I was upset about not being able to speak to him at first when my phone got croaked from falling into the toilet, but after everything I've been through, I no longer seem worried about it. What I'm trying to say little bro, is that I'm going to join you for this movie rather than spend time with my Boo-Boo Bear. I hope that makes sense."
That comment actually did it. Lincoln really felt touched by her generous act and kindness, combined with the fact that she was willing to join him in something he likes doing, as well as give up her date with Bobby (which she was looking forward to) to spend time with her little brother, and to top it all off, it seems that she had learned something from this experience after all and that she managed to fight through her cell phone withdrawals and was no longer upset about it. All this had caused Lincoln's heart to really swell up in a positive manner, seeing that Lori gift was given out of genuine love, and that she really has become a better sister to him.
Wiping away a couple of tears that were forming in his eyes and then sniffing, he then said to his eldest sister.
"Lori," He then proceeded to hug her for what she did. "Thank you so much for all of this. I am really touched by your gift."
She then returned the huge and wrapped her arms around Lincoln's body and then spoke.
"You're quite welcome Lincy, and I am happy that you feel that way about me bro," Lori admitted. "That actually makes me feel heart-warmed by that. Just remember that I love you bro."
"I love you too sis," He replied.
She then went and kissed him on the forehead, which surprised him since it was something she rarely did, but didn't feel like arguing with her about it. They then separated as Lincoln felt like commenting.
"It seems that you actually have gotten something from this whole scenario Lori."
"You bet I have Linc! I've never felt so alive in my life," She admitted. "I really must thank you for this Lincoln. You have changed me for the better. I have learned from going without my phone that I have been harsh to you all and that although I love my phone and I love my Boo-Boo Bear, I learned that my family is something that I should have been focused on too, and that spending time with my family was something that I needed from my issue. Spending so much time with you was what got me feeling it was all worth wild little bro, and that's why I sincerely thank you, from the bottom of my heart for showing me that I have more of a life than just my Boo-Boo Bear and my cell phone that I was addicted to."
"I'm glad that you have gotten something from all this big sis," He smiled sincerely.
"I sure did little bro," Lori then said. "And I promise you that from this day forward, cell phone or not, I will never mistreat, bully, harm or pick on anyone of our siblings again and that means I will never be mean and cruel to you ever again Lincoln, and I literally mean that."
"Thank you so much Lori," Lincoln was heartfelt by that.
"You're welcome Lincy," She smiled sincerely as they were enjoying a very heartwarming moment between each other like what a brother-sister kind of relationship should be…
It was then the heartfelt moment came to a halt when Lisa approached the room, who looked like she had good news judging by the look on her face as she got their attention.
"Ahem, forgive me for actually intruding on this special emotional sibling bonding moment you two are having," Lisa spoke which got their attention. "But I actually have some wonderful news that I think you'll love to hear."
This got Lincoln to raise an eyebrow as he wondered what his second youngest sister wanted to tell them.
"What is it that you need to tell us Lisa," He asked her as the brainy Loud Sister cleared her throat and revealed.
"Well now, dear brother and our eldest sister, it has taken me a little over a week to complete, or rather, a week and a single day or 1.1 week to be precise, but after all the recommendations that I have achieved, I have finally finished repairing Lori's cell phone back to its former glory," She then showed them Lori's phone which was back in its former glory like Lisa said. "After making several calibrations, modifications, adjustments, accommodations, troubleshoot, overhaul and ameliorations, I think I have gotten the phone back to its previous state that it was in before the accident in which it feel into the Hydrogen Oxide that was within the toilet and its now like it never even happened. Let me show you."
Lori looked hyped that her phone was finally repaired as Lisa then turned on the phone and to their surprise, it actually worked like it did before and it was no longer damage. Everything about it was working again.
"You see. In perfect condition, and its back to the way it was previously," Lisa then decides to hand Lori her phone as Lori looked so grateful by this achievement as she then spoke.
"Oh, thank you so much for repairing my phone Lisa," She thanked her. "Even though it took a week or so to complete. I really appreciate your hard work that you put into fixing and repairing my phone back to the way it should be."
"The pleasure was all mine eldest sibling," Lisa remarked. "Just doing what I do best and doing one of my siblings a favor."
Lori was checking out her repaired phone and was happy to see it was working just like it use to. Lincoln smiled at this as he then spoke to Lisa.
"She is really happy to have her phone back," He told her. "I'm proud that you decided to do that for our oldest sister."
"Don't mention it dear brother. If you were dealing with a situation that required my assistance, I would have gladly assisted you with the issue too." Lisa admitted.
"That's great to hear." Lincoln remarked.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I need a break from this," Lisa stated. "Working on repairing that phone for a week really worn me out, so I think it's best if I take a bit of a break from working and try to unwind myself from the scenario. By the way, it seems she really fought through her Nomophobia didn't she?"
"Yes she did. She seemed so much livelier than she was before her phone fell into the toilet," Lincoln said. "I just hope things don't revert back to the way it was before the phone got damaged."
"Lincoln dear brother, I can assure you that this time she won't go back to bullying us, bossing us around, and all that foolishness she was known for doing back then," Lisa told him.
"I certainly hope so," He then decided to say. "Well enjoy your relaxation time Lisa, we'll see you later."
"Yeah, I'll see you in a bit Lincoln, and same with you Lori," Lisa said.
"Oh right. See ya Lisa," Lori spoke to her.
With one last farewell, Lisa left the room and departed back to her room to unwind…
Once Lisa was gone, Lori then got a call from her phone as the ringtone started going off which caught Lincoln's attention. The person calling was from Bobby as Lori had a hyped look on her face and then accepted the call and spoke into it.
"Bobby Boo-Boo Bear? Is that literally you?" She asked over the phone.
It was then we heard Bobby speaking on the other line.
"Babe, what happened!? Where have you been?!" By his tone, he actually sounded concerned rather than angry at her. "I was really worried about you, and that you never called me back! I honestly thought something happened to you!"
"Oh Bobby. I'm so sorry that I didn't call you over the week," Lori apologized. "Something happened to my phone and it fell into the toilet and it took me a week for Lisa to fully repair it to its regular state. I've been spending time with my family because of it."
"That's great to hear," Her boyfriend said. "I'm just relieved and glad that your alright and not harmed."
By the look on Lincoln's face, one could tell it was saying 'I told you so', which was referring to the fact that Bobby really didn't seem upset or angry about how Lori wasn't calling her.
"Oh Boo-Boo Bear, thank you for that," She spoke with a mushy tone.
"You're welcome babe."
As they continued talking for a few minutes, Lincoln slowly started to frown, fearing that this was it for the nicer and more improved Lori since she got her phone back. He was afraid things would revert back to before, regardless of what Lisa told him.
Well, I guess since she has her phone back, she'll be going back to her old self. Lincoln thought to himself. Man, why must the Status Quo make things happen and make sure things remain unchanged. I really hope that the Status Quo doesn't succeed in making Lori back to being a bully like she was at the start of the story. Because not only will she be mean to us again, it also would show that the lesson she learned from all this would be a waste and mean nothing to her…
Lincoln sighed as he looked downward to the ground, seemingly upset that Lori will not be the nicer sister she became through this scenario.
A few minutes later, Bobby then asked Lori an important question.
"So babe, you remember that our date is tomorrow right?"
"Yes I do Bobby Wobby,"
"Are you looking forward for our date night tomorrow?" Her boyfriend asked.
Lori was about to say yes, but before she could, she turned around and looked at her brother, who was frowning that Lori would go back to being a bully like she was before. As a result, it looked like he feared that she would ditch him and his movie just to be with Bobby, and make it seem the lesson she learned was a waste to nothing. Feeling really bad for him and realizing that she did make the obligation to spend time with him, she then sighed and then spoke through the phone.
"I'm sorry Bobby," She apologized before revealing. "But I'm afraid I'm going to have to skip our date night tomorrow this time."
Lincoln heard that and looked shocked, hoping that what he was hearing was true. Bobby also sounded shocked by the sound of his voice, seeing that Lori would never skip a date with him.
"What," He asked with shock. "Why do you want to cancel that date? You were looking forward to it!"
"I was sweetie but," She took a deep breath and then continued. "Tomorrow I think I feel like it would be a better idea to spend some time with my little brother. After what I've been through last week, I have learned something about how I was acting before, and I want to spend time with Lincoln doing something he wants to do and there's a movie airing tomorrow that he is going to and I'm wanting to go there with him, so I'm afraid the date is off. I'm very sorry Boo-Boo Bear."
Lincoln felt touched by that again, and he then figured out that the Status Quo wasn't able to revert things to normal and that Lori really did learn something from all of this and it wasn't a waste to nothing after all. Lori really was sticking to her promise she made and no god called Status Quo was going to stand in her way. Bobby sounded saddened at first, but then was understanding of the situation since she wanted to spend time with Lincoln.
"Aw, that's okay. I understand," He spoke with understanding. "It's great that you want to spend time with your little bro. I'm perfectly okay with that."
"Thank you so much for understanding Sweetie Boo," She told him.
"Anytime babe," Her boyfriend then spoke. "But maybe, do you think we could move the date night for Wednesday instead? I am available on that day too."
Lori thought about it for a minute and figured she didn't have plans on Wednesday. Bearing a smile on her face, she then responded.
"Sure," She admitted. "Wednesday sounds like a good idea."
"Great, I'll be sure it's ready that day Pumpkin!"
"Oh, I still love you Bobby Boo-Boo Bear."
"I still love you too babe," He then said. "I got to go now! I'll talk to you later okay love?"
"You got it Honey," She told him. "Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
With that said, the call ended as Lori put the phone away and faced Lincoln, who still had a shocked look on his face. Confused by this, she decided to ask.
"What?"
Without a second to spare, Lincoln went and hugged her once again, a sign that he was touched by how she sacrificed her date night just to spend time with her only brother and do something he likes to do. Lori had just shown even more genuine love towards him and he was unable to hold it in any longer.
"Thank you so much for not ditching me to go on that date Lori," He thanked her.
"Hey, it was nothing buddy, and I promised you I would accompany you," Lori returned the hug. "And there was literally no way I was letting the Status Quo cause things to revert back to normal and to have me become a bully again. Not after everything I've been through this past week. I made the obligation that I would change and be a better sister to you and the others, and I meant it. I really will stick to that promise."
"I'm also thrilled that the lesson you learned wasn't a waste to nothing as well."
"Hey, why would I want to waste a lesson that helped change me and become a nicer sister," She asked rhetorically before speaking. "All this wouldn't have been possible without your support and your help to get me through this. I have you to thank for that happening little bro."
"I'm glad you do," Lincoln smiled as they continued the hug. "I'm so excited to see the movie tomorrow, and with my big eldest sister no less."
"Well I'm happy to be joining you for the movie too, and that I'll be spending time with my only brother watching something that he'd be interested into." She said as a result. "Besides, I literally owe you one for all the nice things you've done for me in the past even when we were never that friendly in terms of what you like."
"I agree with that statement sis," He gave his finally response as Lori nodded and they continued hugging. The rest of the day passed by like nothing and the two of them were looking forward to seeing that movie tomorrow as brother and sister…
THE NEXT DAY:
It was now Tuesday in Royal Woods, and at the mall, Lincoln and Lori were there getting ready to see the Ace Savvy movie together, having shown the ticket booth their tickets and getting some popcorn, soda and some other small snacks to eat while watching the movie. It looked like the two of them were going to have a fun time together. They sat down in a seat together and the movie lasted for a good 90 minutes, and needless to say Lori wasn't complaining about it since she was spending time with her bro.
Once the movie was finally over, the two of them left the movie theater in amazement from watching the whole thing and they were satisfied with it, especially Lincoln.
"That was the best movie I ever seen," He gushed about it. "It was awesome!'
Lori couldn't help but smirk at this as she replied.
"I thought it was pretty cool too."
"I mean every minute of it was epic and spectacular," Lincoln remarked. "It was worth actually going to the movie theaters today!"
"Uh huh. I agree buddy," Lori then decided to say. "Honestly Linc, I have no idea why I said that Ace Savvy was lame and dorky in the past, and that it wasn't something I'd be into. Boy was I wrong. Heck, I still remember the time where you and Clyde made that comic entry featuring the characters that were based off of me and the other sisters. I especially remember the character that is based off of me."
"You mean The High Card?" Lincoln asked.
"Yeah that's the one. I remember her," Lori remarked. "I still can't believe that you used us as an inspiration to that."
"Hey what can I say? I really appreciate the fact that you girls have my back in the direst of situations," Lincoln admitted. "And I felt it was the perfect opportunity to make some allies based on all ten of you, since I was very genuine about that."
"I know you were little bro," She rubbed his head as they exited the mall. "And I appreciate that too."
They then got back to the van once they left the mall. Once they were riding back to the house, Lincoln then had something come up into his mind as he then spoke to Lori.
"Hey Lori?"
"Hmm?" She looked curious while she continued driving.
"Do you remember the time I wrote that note on why you were the 'Worst Sister Ever'?"
She then started to frown at that since he decided to bring that up. He noticed this and then revealed.
"Well I was wrong about that. You're not the worst sister ever. Your far from it in fact," He admitted, which got Lori to smile again as he continued. "To be perfectly honest, none of you are the worst sister ever. I love all of you the same and even though we don't always agree on the same page, we are still there for each other."
"That's right Lincoln, cause families support each other," She spoke. "And while we don't always get onto the same page at times and that there are days where we are not friendly at all, you can guarantee that by the end of the day, we still look out for each other, and we still love you Lincoln."
"I know," He nodded. "And I honestly couldn't ask for better sisters than you and the others."
"That's great to hear little bro," She then drove the van back home and in a matter of minutes, they made it back to the house…
Once they entered the house, they saw that Leni was waiting for them on the couch and she figured out that they had gone to the theaters doing something Lincoln loves.
"Hey guys! Did you like, have fun at the movie theater?" She asked them.
"Yes Leni! Lori and I had a blast at the movies and we got to see the Ace Savvy Movie!" Lincoln exclaimed excitedly as Lori smirked.
"Yeah. We had fun Leni," Lori admitted as Leni ran up to them in an excited manner.
"Eeeeee! It is like, totes wonderful that our only brother and my roommate actually had so much fun together watching something that Linky would like to see! I am totes thrilled that you two enjoyed the movie!"
"I'm happy that we did too Leni," The only brother remarked.
"I'm proud that you spent time doing something with our brother that Linky enjoys doing Lori." Leni stated.
"I'm satisfied with it too," The eldest sister agreed. "It was worth spending time with our only brother."
"Uh huh." Leni nodded as the day went onward as they decided to enjoy themselves after seeing that movie…
Sometime later in the day, in the bedroom of Lori and Leni, we see Lori on her bed, giving her phone a break as she then decided to speak to the readers.
"Hey readers, I literally must admit that I am actually glad that my phone fell into the toilet," Lori spoke to the readers. "Because if it didn't, I never would have learned the lesson I was shown throughout this scenario. The fact that there was much more to my life than just being addicted to my phone and talking to Bobby, and that my family also holds a place in my heart and they are all important to me as well. After apologizing to Lincoln, and making it up to him and being nicer to my sisters, I think it's safe to say that I am really going to enjoy being a nicer and better sister to them all, and I feel like my relationship with my little bro has grown stronger than it did in the past. Simply put, I'm glad I was shown the error of my ways and that I could change into a better person. I shall never be a big jerk to my siblings ever again, and it's all thanks to Lincoln for making this possible! I literally couldn't have done this without his support, and I am thankful for that too!"
It was then Lincoln stepped into her room and then got her attention.
"Hey Lori?"
"Hey Lincoln, what can I do for you?" She asked.
"Well I am just so thankful that you took me to the movies today that I feel like returning the favor to you once again," He then suggested. "How would you like it if I help you get prepped up for your date tomorrow night?"
A smile then flashed onto the first born Loud sibling as she liked the suggestion Lincoln was giving her. As a result, she said.
"Lincoln, I would literally appreciate your help and support for my date tomorrow night," She told him. "Of course you can help me prep up for that event."
"That's what I do sis," He admitted. "I'm just that kind of brother."
"You sure are Lincoln," She laughed before revealing. "Oh, by the way Lincy, after the date tomorrow, I think it's best if I take a break from my phone for a while."
"What?" This took the only Loud boy by surprise. "Why?"
"It's because of the lesson I learned, and that I realized how much you and the others mean to me and that I couldn't give up any of you, regardless of how I feel about Bobby and my phone. I couldn't let that come between us. So after that date, I am literally giving my phone a break for a while to spend time with you and the rest of our sisters."
"Wow. That is an improvement."
"You got that right," She then came up with an idea as she then grabbed her phone for a minute. While she was doing that, Lincoln turned to face the readers.
"Well readers, this is just about the conclusion to this story! I seriously hope you enjoyed all of it and are satisfied with the kind of sister Lori has become!"
It was then Lori activated something on her phone as she then said to Lincoln.
"Okay Lincoln, come over here," She told him.
"Wait what?" He was confused.
"Come on little bro," Lori said. "I'm going to be taking a selfie, and this time, I want you to be a part of it!"
"Me?! You want to take a selfie with me?!" He asked with surprise.
"Duh, of course I mean you silly," She retorted in a rather friendly manner before asking. "Who do you think I was talking about? Lisa? Lana? Luan?"
Lincoln wasn't sure about this as he never had a selfie taken before.
"I don't know… Are you sure this is a good idea?"
She saw him struggling and as such, she rolled her eyes in a playful manner before saying.
"Just get over here so we can take a selfie together Linc."
Lincoln started to walk over but there was still one flaw remaining.
"But Lori, I'm too short," He pointed out. "I'm not tall enough to have a selfie taken with you by your side!"
Realizing he was right, she sighed and decided to take an alternative approach to it.
"Okay Lincy, climb up onto my back and you can look over me while I keep you balanced." She stated.
"You sure about that? You're not going to be upset that I get onto your back as if you were giving me a piggy back ride that I was given when I was younger?" He questioned.
"Yeah buddy. I won't mind," She insisted. "I'll crouch down so you can climb up onto me."
"Well…if you say so sis."
Lincoln decided not to argue, so he approached her while she crouch down to his height so he can climb up onto her and in a matter of seconds, Lori stood back up with Lincoln on her back, leaning on her shoulders as he had his arms wrapped around her as she got her phone out again and activated the camera setting to it.
"You alright with this bro?" She asked him.
"Yeah. I should be fine with it."
"Okay, I won't drop you. I promise."
"I hope not too," He kept his arms wrapped around her as a result.
"You ready to do this Lincy?" She asked him.
"Ready when you are big sis," He remarked.
"That's what I like to hear little bro," She smirked before saying. "Okay lets smile for this one Lincoln."
"Got it Lor," He then smiled as she held the phone out a good distance in front of them as they both got ready to be given a selfie together.
"Okay Linc. Here's to the best brother ever," Lori spoke before activating the camera app on her phone.
"Sounds great," Lincoln and Lori smiled as moments later, they had a selfie taken together as they were both smiling in the picture. Leni saw this and was heartfelt by the sight. Wanting to cherish the moment, Leni got out her own phone and decided to take a picture of them.
"Aww. This is like, so cute," She got her phone ready. "I'm totes going to share this moment on Facebook."
It was then Leni took that photo and did just that as Lori and Lincoln didn't object to it this time, since it was a true family moment between the two. Yes, Lori really has changed into a better sister for the best of everyone in the family and Lincoln was thrilled about it too. It looks like things will be much better with Lori who has become a nicer sister to them all. Never again shall she bully, torment, and mistreat her sisters like slaves for her personal enjoyment, nor will she call them twerps and other such names, and was going to stop being addicted to her phone all the time as she is going to be doing other stuff with herself like spend time with her family. Needless to say, everyone was happy about that.
It was then that one photo/selfie that Leni just took was then shown on the screen, depicting Lori and Lincoln smiling together like a brother and sister should, and underneath it was a subtitle that said '#BestBrotherEver'. It was then the screen slowly faded out in black, which was a sign that this is the end of the story now everyone…
