Awkward silences can ruin any long journey and no one knew this better than Princess Pea. She had broken millions of them sa pamamagitan ng thinking quick on her feet and endulging those around her in conversation. As she followed Conrad, Naveen, and Tiana, she decided it was time for her to break the ice.
"So," she sinabi slowly, "You two seem like a happy couple. But tell me Tiana, is Naveen well equipped or is that big kastilyo of his supposed to be compensating for something?"
"Beg your pardon?" asked Tiana.
"You know, the family jewels, are they the kind you'd want on an engagement ring or the kind you mistake for a sequin from the Dollar Store?"
Tiana still looked unsure.
"Does he have a big penis?" gisantes rolled her eyes. "God, some of these goody-goodies just don't understand my metaphors. Anyway, what kingdom are you from?"
"Oh, I'm only royal sa pamamagitan ng marriage," Tiana laughed. "I was a waitress before I met Naveen."
Pea's jaw dropped. "A waitress? That's one step up from being the bird lady Mary Poppins sings about. Geez, Naveen, I can't believe you settled for a commoner."
"What can I say?" chuckled Naveen, his voice sexy as usual. "I fell in love."
"It's just as easy to fall in pag-ibig with a rich person as it is to fall for a poor person. That's what my mother always told me," answered Pea. "I wouldn't be caught dead marrying a peasant. Gross...no offence, Tiana."
"None taken," she replied, through clenched teeth.
Pea's words stung Conrad on the puso a little bit because he had started to grow quite fond of her, although he didn't have a lot to offer. Just then, the four arrived at Mama Odie's hut in the bayou. The little old lady came swinging down a vine, laughing psychotically. She had sunglasses on her face and a snake on her shoulder.
"Are you sure she doesn't belong in the loonie bin?" gisantes asked Tiana. "She looks like a total whack-job."
"Well, well, well," sinabi Mama Odie. "Tiana and Naveen, nice seein' ya again. The last time I saw y'alls you two were a couple of frogs turning human."
"You two were frogs?" inquired Conrad.
"Long story," answered Naveen.
"Listen, Mama Odie, I just need you to use your magic wand or whatever it is you do and turn back time...bring me back to the time before I was exiled, when I was truly happy."
"Were you happy though, Pea?"
"Ugh! Yes!" gisantes was annoyed. "Why does no one believe me when I say I loved my old life, it's all I want!"
"Child, sometimes it ain't about what you want," replied the strange woman. "It's about what you need...Someday you'll figure that out. But until then, I can't help ya!" With that, she returned to her hut.
"We traveled all this way for that?" yelled Pea. "I could've gotten madami useful payo from Dr. Phil! God, this is hopeless!"
"Thanks for all your help guys," sinabi Conrad politely. "I'm sure we'll be fine. See you around."
Tiana and Naveen waved goodbye and headed back to New Orleans.
"Pea," sinabi Conrad. "I know that things are gonna work out in the end...I promise you. No matter what happens, I'll be sa pamamagitan ng your side."
"Well, what are we gonna do?" asked Pea, fighting back tears. "Hmm...wait a second...I think I just thought of our susunod method of transportation..."
gisantes and Conrad spent the susunod two and a half hours building a balsa out of wood, branches, and vines.
Mama Odie watched proudly through her window from above.
"You know what?" she sinabi to her snake. "I truly think she's gonna be okay. That princess is smarter than anyone gives her credit for."
