Chapter 11: Heading to the Getty’s!

  Harper couldn’t believe his luck thanks to Jo’s girlfriend Hailey, they knew where Jester was. Harper headed out and got into the shotgun seat of Jo’s car. As Jo began to drive off, anticipation was killing Harper. He finally would get to see his lovable frog once again!

  “Oh, I can’t wait to see Jester!” laughed Harper.

  “You think Erik’s son is going to let him go?” asked Jo.

  “I hope so, maybe inspiring him to become something more” said Harper.

  As Jo finally arrived at the Getty residence, Harper immediately got out ready to meet up with Jester. Jo soon led the way towards the main door. As Jo rang the doorbell, Erik answered.

  “Ah yes, the man dating my sister with his friend” said Erik.

  “Is Jester there?” asked Harper, “Is he okay?”

  “Uh, is your friend feeling okay?” asked Erik.

  “He has had a traumatic experience” said Jo.

  Erik soon the two men inside, Erik wasn’t pleased that his son Jeff had lied to him the entire time. Jeff knew he was in trouble. He was still in his room with the three frogs when Harper knocked politely on the door.

  If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

  “Hello, can I come in and see Jester?” asked Harper.

  “GO AWAY, FOUND THE FROGS FAIR AND SQUARE!” cried Jeff.

  Harper was taken back by this, he knew it would be harder to win over Jester” said Harper.

  “Please, I saw Jester first, I named him and watched over him” said Harper.

  “He’s also a naturalist” added Erik.

  Jeff didn’t know what that was, but the moment he heard how Harper saw Jester first he slowly opened the door.

  “You’re not going to take him away from me are you, I found him in the pond I didn’t know you saw him first” said Jeff.

  Harper could see sadness on the young teen’s face, he knew that he would miss keeping Jester.

  “Well, Jester is a wild animal he needs to go to let’s say a zoo” said Harper, “I know, since I’m a naturalist I have a pass to the zoo. I can show you the right thing to do with Jester. What do you say? You can visit him any time.”

  “Really?” asked Jeff.

  Harper nodded and even Erik had to agree with the sentiment from his son.

  “Okay, I will give you back Jester, but promise to take him to the zoo so that we can visit him” said Jeff.

  “Will do” said Harper.

  Jeff headed over towards the container and soon grabbed a towel to pick up Jester. Jester could see he was now moving now heading into the hands of Harper. Harper held Jester like a baby, it was quite a sentimental moment for Harper.

  “Let’s put him in another container” said Erik, “then you can head back to the zoo with him.”

  Harper nodded, Erik headed towards the kitchen and grabbed a container for the frog. Jester now was being transported once again but this time to a familiar environment in the zoo. Jester soon found himself riding in Jo’s car, Jo was heading towards the zoo.

  “Jester, you are going to be more with your own kind instead of fighting for your life in the wild” said Harper.

  Jester didn’t know what to say, he wanted to say thank you to the human naturalist if he could speak. Jo continued to drive towards the zoo. They were hopeful the caretaker of the zoo would allow Jester to stay.
