CHAPTER 6: JUST UNWINDING

The Weekend

The Weekend had finally arrived and Charlie Brown and Frieda went to the museum. They enjoyed the exhibits and artwork. They later went for a stroll in the park. The day was very nice and for being January, the weather wasn't so bad. Sally and Michael were also doing stuff together. Michael took Sally to the movies. Thankfully the theater had spaces for wheelchairs so Sally could still sit with Michael and enjoy the movie. Lucy and Schroeder went to a classical concert to see the local orchestra perform. Both of them enjoyed the show. Linus and Eudora went to the zoo to see the animals. They just so happened to run into Dolores, but she didn't reveal who see had been seeing, at least not yet. Linus and Eudora agreed not to press her about who she was with and figured she'd tell them when she was ready.

All of them, including Peppermint Patty, Marcie, Franco, Hans, Franklin, and Melanie, met at Joe's Café later that day to catch up on all of the events. Snoopy even joined them and ordered three Joe Burgers, two large fries, and an extra-large root beer. While some of the kids looked in shock to see Snoopy gobble all of that food down, Charlie Brown and his friends were used to it. Snoopy could pack away the food without gaining a pound, except for the occasional swollen belly from eating way too much. But the kids were having fun again. All of the drama they endured the past couple of months seemed behind them. And they all enjoyed each other's company.

It's so good

That after all these years

That. we can share something

More than just tears

Someone like you

Should always be around

Though. lift up my spirits

When they're falling down

It's very nice. to have a friend

Oh. someone to talk to

Some good time to spend

Someone to lean on

When the road bends

Oh. it's very nice

To have a friend

Oh. you made my mind out

But you knew how I felt

Oh. you know me better girl

Yes you do. and I know myself

Oh. I'd never

Let you down

Over your clothes

I need you, you need me

That's the way it should be

Lady ooh, loving friend

I'll take that smile you said

People say things, that never come true

Cause'. deep in their heart

That I'm thinking of you

You may be silent

But I know. you care

Cause'. wherever I ever

I know you'll be there

It's very nice. to have a friend

Oh. someone to talk to

Some good time to spend

Someone to lean on

When the road bends

Oh. it's very nice

To have a friend

I need you, you need me

That's the way it should be

Lady ooh, loving friend

I'll take that smile you said

It's very nice. to have a friend

Oh. somebody to talk to

Some good time to spend

Someone to lean on

When the road bends

Oh. it's very nice

To have wondered friend

Oh. it's so nice

To have a friend

Oh. it's so nice

(To have a friend) To have a friend

Oh. it's so nice, Oh. it's so nice) Oh. it's so nice

(To have a friend)

Oh. it's so nice

(To have a friend)

Oh. it's so nice

(To have a friend)
