Hi guys,

It’s just me Max today. I told Ella that she could go home early as she had a few errands to do. I also wanted to use this opportunity to talk to you guys. Besides, Ella rarely reads old blogs so I’m pretty sure she doesn’t know that I’ve been talking to you guys on my own…

So… yesterday after homework, I asked Ella if she wanted to go for a walk and fortunately she said “Yes”! I had on a cool new shirt and I had put some gel in my hair so I was looking pretty good. We got to the ice cream palour. I said to Ella, “Hey, I’ll buy us both ice-creams” (I wanted it to sound casual). She thought that was “So sweet!”. That’s a good thing, right?

Then I took a deep breath and said, “Hey, Ella wanna go to the movies later? My shout!”

And she said, “What’s got into YOU, Max? Movies? Don’t you usually like to play computer games or football with your buddies?”

I was just about to open my mouth and say something cool when guess who came into the ice-cream palour?

CARL CARUSO!!!

Well, I might as well have not have existed because Ella made a bee-line for him and had eyes only for the “gorgeous Carl!” Well, thankfully he didn’t stay long but the damage was done. For the rest of the afternoon, all Ella would talk about was Carl-this and Carl-that: “Oooh Carl is going to beat Basepef” and “Carl is very handsome and so smart” Blah Blah Blah!

So anyway, that was my first attempt to try to do something nice for Ella…. It didn’t work out as well as I hoped.

Oh well, I hope Momo had more luck winning back Eva Toms than I did with Ella.

Keep it real, pandas!
