After 読書 the advertisement, on the bulletin board, Melody took the pen and wrote down her name, along with her homeroom number (RM 13) and ホーム phone number. As she was finishing 書く down her phone number, a small boy about her age came up 次 to her.
"Is there still time for me to sign up?" he asked Melody. She turned to the boy. He had mousy black hair, with チョコレート eyes, tanned skin, and dressed up in jeans and a white t-shirt.
"Yeah, it is not too late," Melody smiled. She stepped aside to let him write down his name.
"O..m..a.r...S..a..d..i..q," Melody read. "That is a pretty name,"
"Thanks," Omar blushed. "What is your name?"
"I'm Melody. Melody Sylvia Barnes,"
Just then another girl appeared, panting. She had been running. The girl had brown slightly curly hair in a half-ponytail. She was also wearing a blue スカート with a yellow t-shirt.
"It's… not..too… late… is..it?" she panted.
"No Rose, あなた can still sign up," Omar answered. After giving Rose the pen, she scribbled her name down.
"Rose, this is my new friend, Melody," 発言しました Omar, remembering the black-haired girl. "Melody, this is Rose,"
"Hi, Melody," smiled Rose.
"Hi, Rose," 発言しました Melody.
As the three kids walked down together to Recess, Melody felt a warm glow inside her heart.
Meanwhile, Ariel was at the grocery store, shopping with Flounder. While picking out apples, she couldn't help but feel a little bit guilty from last night.
Ugh! Why did I chicken out? I was going to ask Eric to come to Melody's show. I don't know why I panicked! Oh well. Maybe when he comes home, I'll try again.
"Ariel?"
Ariel snapped out of her thoughts. ヒラメ just came back with some whole grain パン and put them in the cart.
"Thanks, Flounder," 発言しました Ariel.
"Ariel, now that あなた are babysitting Melody, does that mean あなた don't want to be a teacher anymore?" ヒラメ inquired.
"No, Flounder," 発言しました Ariel. "I'll still apply. I only took the nanny job for to get better at caring for kids."
"Oh, that is good then! So how are あなた doing in the 'nanny business' anyway?"
"Well, so far, so good. Melody is a fun kid to be with. When we got home, she showed me her サッカー trophies," Ariel explained.
"She likes playing soccer? I remember her telling me about her サッカー games."
"Yes, Melody told me she loves playing サッカー so much that she can do サッカー tricks while sleeping!" Ariel and ヒラメ giggled.
"Flounder, what happened yesterday?" Ariel asked. ヒラメ was caught off-guard. Uh oh! She probably noticed his odd behavior from yesterday.
"What do あなた mean?" he said.
"You seemed tense, what is wrong?" Ariel asked.
"Nothing!" 発言しました Flounder. "I-I just-when あなた left…" he trailed off.
"Are あなた upset that I left?" Ariel asked, wondering if that is what was troubling him. ヒラメ nodded sheepishly.
"I know it has been a day, but I really miss you," ヒラメ confessed.
"Hey," 発言しました Ariel, as she hugged Flounder. "I miss あなた too, I know it is hard because of my busy schedule, I have a 日 off-every Sunday, so maybe we could do something together,"
"I guess," 発言しました Flounder. He'll be happy to spend time with Ariel, even for only a day.
"Somewhere 次 week on Friday または Saturday, I'll take Melody to the park, maybe we could hang out then,"
"Yeah, that sounds better!" 発言しました Flounder. "As long as it just the kid and not Mr. Barnes,"
"What makes あなた say that?" Ariel said.
" I don't know, the way he stared at あなた made it seem like he's crushing on you,"
"Flounder, don't be ridiculous," Ariel blushed. "He can't have a crush on me,"
"Well, do あなた have a crush on him?" ヒラメ asked.
"What! No!" Ariel denied, her face turning redder.
"You're lying," ヒラメ replied. "You can tell me."
Ariel try to deny it again, but couldn't. Normally, she is good liar and can fool her father and sisters just to save ヒラメ または herself from trouble but with Flounder, it's different.
"Oh, okay," Ariel sighed. "I..find Eric to be very handsome-but あなた can't tell anyone! Especially Father, do あなた promise?"
"I won't tell anyone," 発言しました Flounder. Ariel smiled, knowing that she can trust ヒラメ to keep her secret.
In the past, Melody never liked recess. Why would anyone want to play with a motherless kid? Whenever she saw a group of kids playing, and asked if she could join, one phrase, 'no motherless kids allowed,' broke her heart. Today is different, however.
"Do あなた guys want to play 'TV tag'"? Rose suggested.
"Sure!" 発言しました Omar.
"What's "tv tag"? Melody wondered.
"It is like tag, only except あなた have to squat down and say any name of a tv 表示する before the person who is 'it' タグ you," Rose explained.
"Yeah, and あなた can only say each タイトル once. あなた can't say "Futurama," twice otherwise, you'll get tagged," Omar added. Melody nodded in understanding. The three フレンズ began playing the game, starting with Omar being 'it'. ("Why am I always 'it'?" he grumbled). Rose and Melody laughed, having fun tricking Omar into not tagging them.
"You gotta catch me, faster!" Melody teased in a sing-song voice.
"Aw, man!" Omar whined. "I can't run fast!"
"Omar, あなた got to tag one of us, it's the rules of the game," 発言しました Rose in a matter-of-fact voice.
"How about I be 'it'?" Melody asked. "Would that make あなた feel better?"
"Okay," Omar beamed. Just then, a mean voice disrupted their fun.
"Why are あなた two playing with that loser?" Omar and the girls turned to see Anna, Joey, and Harry. The same kids that Melody met on her first day! Melody felt very small all the sudden.
"Back off, guys!" Rose barked. Omar didn't know who Anna, Joey, and Harry are but from their snickering looks, he could tell that they were mean. Besides, nobody calls his friend, a 'loser!'
"What do あなた guys got against her for?" He demanded. Anna, Joey, and Harry turned to Omar.
"None of your beeswax, brownie!" Joey sneered. Anna and Harry laughed. Omar, felt crushed, knowing that they were referring to his tone of skin. Hearing that remark, he was as mad as ever! Just before he could give them a 'knuckle-sandwhich,' Rose stepped in.
"Look guys! Stop picking on Omar and Melody! Go ホーム if all y'all going to do is laugh like a bunch of hyenas! Go ホーム and eat your undies! GO HOME!" The ベル rang, before Anna and the boys could throw another insult.
As they walked away, they shouted, "Fine, but don't blame us if あなた got tired of hanging out with a motherless twit!"
School ended and all the kids went ホーム except for one sad little girl and two concerned little kids. Melody tried not to blink but tears still swell up in her eyes. She curled up into a fetal position on the steps and cried.
"Melody, don't let those dorks get to you," 発言しました Rose. She was sitting 次 to Melody and tried to comfort her によって patting her shoulder.
"What was that about?" Omar asked, referring to the bullies' interference. He, too, was sitting 次 to Melody.
"...Kids make fun of her because she doesn't have a mommy," Rose sighed. No mother! Omar felt sorry for Melody. Nobody deserves to be treated like that!
Just then, he heard an angelic voice calling Melody.
"Then, who is that red-haired lady coming toward us?" Omar raised an eyebrow. The girls turned to see who Omar was looking at. It was Ariel! She didn't know why Melody looked so gloomy but she ran very quickly to her.
"What happened?" she asked. Melody tried to answer but her sobs fumbled up her words.
"Anna, Joey, and Harry mocked her for not having a mommy," Rose answered for Melody.
"If Melody doesn't have a mommy, then who are you?" Omar asked Ariel.
"Oh, I'm sorry! I'm Ariel, Melody's nanny," Ariel responded.
"Ah, I see," 発言しました Omar. Ariel, meanwhile, felt sad and mad. Sad, that Melody is hurt. Oh! How she hated to see her cry! Mad, that someone would have the nerve to treat Melody like this!
"We should talk to the principal about this!," 発言しました Ariel, firmly, as she took Melody and went inside the school building. Rose and Omar followed her.
"Good idea!" 発言しました Omar.
Why didn't I think of that? Rose pouted.
"But Ariel! What if he doesn't listen?" Melody worried. None of her school principals listened to her about her bully problems so why should this one care?
"Don't worry if he doesn't listen, we'll still fix it," Ariel answered.
Meanwhile, Eric, was eating lunch during lunch break with アラジン and Adam.
"Hey Eric," 発言しました Aladdin. "That cute blonde is checking あなた out!" Eric turned to see a pretty woman throwing him a flirty wink. He just 発言しました ignored her and turned back.
"Not interested." He replied. He knew that once he goes on a 日付 with the blonde woman, she'd be proposing marriage, and he'd freak out.
"Man, あなた need to get out," アラジン sighed. "You've been working too hard!"
"I don't need to get out," Eric retorted.
"Why not?" Adam asked, who just finished swallowing his food.
"I don't have time; I got a kid to feed!"
"Yes, but あなた need a break! あなた can't just sit in your office 24 hours a day, letting your life pass あなた by! あなた need someone someone special!" 発言しました Aladdin, waving his arms wildly. Eric just simply ignored him and took a sip from his water. Like he cared what アラジン said.
"You need a wife," Adam added.
Eric spit water out all over the table. ("Eww," 発言しました Aladdin.)
"A WIFE! Oh no! Nooo way! Not going to happen!" He shook his head and waved his arms, wildly.
"But Eric-"
"No guys, あなた don't understand. Women are nothing but trouble! They trick あなた into thinking they are princesses when in reality, they are witches-scratch that! Witches with a 'b'"!
"You think all women are like that?" Adam confronted.
"C'mon, Eric, name one woman that is anything NOT like Vanessa,"
Before Eric could say 'forget about it,' he remembered Ariel. He remembered the way she smiled, the way she comforted Melody from the almost-car crash, the way she 発言しました hello.
"...Ariel," he said.
"Oo la la! Who's Ariel?" アラジン smiled, wiggling his eyebrows.
"She's my nanny!" Eric said, feeling annoyed.
"So why are あなた blushing?" Adam smirked.
"I'm not blushing!" Eric claimed.
"Riiiight," 発言しました Aladdin. Eric, stood up and began to gather his half-eaten sandwich.
"Let's go, lunch is over!"
As he walked out, Adam turned to Aladdin.
"Looks like he probably found someone!" アラジン agreed.

The Redesigns
Okay, so a lot of people have been doing these, and I wanted to write a new 記事 before I finished my countdown of the smartest ディズニー Princesses, so I'm going to be doing this. Anyways, keep in mind this is just my opinion. Enjoy the article! :)
11. Mulan
She may be my お気に入り ディズニー Princess, but I am definitely not a ファン of her design. In my opinion, her face is completely changed, it's made sort of chubby, with もっと見る rosy cheeks. Her hair looks different, and I do like the outfit, but I don't think it SUITS/スーツ her, I don't think her appearance is unappealing to look at または anything,...
