“Ewww!” The blueberries cried out and laughed as they walked by the Mint couple.
“Yeah, get a room, you two!” Boro called out.
“Ha ha, yeah! It's funny because they're kissing!” Bláber shouted.
The other two berries sighed. He wasn't the brightest of the boys, but he was their brother, and he was loved.
The group of blueberries continued walking in their ragtag formation, kicking up pebbles and dust clouds as they progressed.
“Where are we going?” Boro asked Borůvka, the oldest.
“I was thinking of heading to the creek and taking a dip!” he responded. “We could play pirates while we’re at it.”
The boys nodded their heads in agreement and raced towards the creek, shouting in their best pirate voices.
The Blueberries were your classic playful brothers who did everything together and lived for fun. Everyone in the Garden agreed they were a bit obnoxious and childish as can be, but many also admitted that they loved their innocence and protected it fiercely. Well, except the Peppers, who couldn't care less about childlike wonder and imagination.
The Blueberry Boys poked fun at each person in the garden, but none more than the Peppers. Their snobbiness constantly got on young boys’ nerves, which often got them into numerous petty arguments. To be fair, they argued with lots of people all the time; not only with the other fruits and vegetables, but also with each other.
Their biggest fights often included their brother Myrtille, who would always get them into heaps of trouble. You see, all of the brothers were pranksters, each committing to a prank at least once a week. Borůvka, Boro and Bláber’s pranks were always harmless, only causing minor frustrations among the garden. Myrtille, however, was a different story.
Borůvka once replaced everyone’s drinks at a gathering with salt water. Myrtille, on the other hand, once managed to turn on the hose and flood the creek, and then eventually everyone’s homes. Boro once spent the day shooting spitballs at anyone walking by. Myrtille pushed a rock three times his size down a slope that, once again, destroyed several homes. Bláber well… wasn’t the brightest, so his idea of a prank was sticking his tongue out at the Blackberries, which did however get him a swift swat from his brothers. Myrtille once provoked some rats to stampede in the direction of the houses in the garden and, as you guessed, destroyed them.
He was the most hardcore of hardcore pranksters and loved aggravating anyone he could. This is what led to the eventual conflict between the brothers one fateful evening.
The boys were playing with makeshift cards, trying to come up with new games. Amani often had friends over to hang out and play games with, which the boys observed. As they believed they finally got a rhythm down to a game that she called “Uno,” Myrtille came running up and swiped the cards away.
“Ha ha ha! Oh, wow the look on your faces- it's priceless!” He doubled over in laughter.
The boys were furious. Yes, pranks were their thing, but their brotherly bond was sacred ground, not to be trampled over with infighting. This was not the first time Myrtille had messed with them.
“YOU SUCK!!!!” Borův yelled. He quickly stood up and whacked his palm across Myrtille’s face.
Myrtille stumbled onto the ground somewhat stunned but also defiant. He stood back up as Borův put his fists up. Without hesitation, Myrtille ran into him, knocking him to the ground. The other two boys just stood back, unsure of what to do. Myrtille and Borův went back and forth for a little while, hitting and bashing.
Finally, Myrtille got on top of Borův, and began choking him.
“Myrtille!” The other two boys yelled and then pushed him off with all of their might.
Some tears strolled down Borův’s pale face as he stood up. “Go away, Myrtille! You always fight with us and get us in trouble! We don’t want you here!”
Myrtille grimaced, disgusted by his brothers. “You guys are just... you're nothing but.... " Myrtille thought of the worst curse word he could think of "... rotten squashes!” He stomped a juicy blueberry trail, as he walked away.
The boys all gasped! They had heard Amani say it before, but they never thought their own brother would curse at them this way. They sat there for a little bit, not really sure of what to do next. Truthfully, they loved their brother, but any love at this point was covered by indignation.
“I hate him,” Borůvka finally blurted out. The other two just shrugged, not wanting to fully commit to any contempt.
“He’s still our brother,” Boro said.
“I don’t care. He doesn’t act like it. He doesn’t even know the meaning of family!
You guys??? YOU are my family!!! But him? BAH!!!” Borůvka responded.
It had been a couple of weeks since then, and Myrtille had been absent in that time, just like Bżar and Zekka. Underneath that frustration grew a tinge of worry from Borův, though he wouldn’t tell that to his brothers. After another long day of playing pirates, they slumped onto the shore of the creek and lay there until they fell asleep. Not Borův, though. His mind raced and his worry grew. He couldn’t express any of it to his brothers, however, because in his mind he was supposed to be a leader. How would they see him as a leader if they saw him scared?
In an instant, a plan formed in his mind. Maybe, he could talk to the ones who knew best about brotherhood- the Blackberries. If they could just give him some advice on how to deal with conflict, he would better grow in how to be a leader.
‘Yeah,’ he thought to himself. The other two lay in a dead sleep. This was his perfect chance. Borův got up and began on his path to the Blackberry hut.

Interesting again
How I love people who are always allegory but not when they cause troubles and worst when one is even proud over it.
Now it is clear that in each of these families, there is a Judas like I pointed out in that last post. Maybe myrtille, Bzar and Zekka would meet somewhere and be friends, who knows, hehe and of course they should fit in together and what a fight they would always fight, hehe.
I salute the master mind behind this game
You guys are wonderful game setters and I hope to play well. We meuuuuve
#dreemerforlife
hahahahhaa I'm so glad you're enjoying th storyline!!! it was a collaboration of three people but my son-in-love really had fun with it! hehehe
and yes...I agree...the fights between those three would be outrageous hahahaha
thanks @bhattg!!!❤️🤗
You are welcome mam, have a great day and week ahead ❤️
Hmmm, I was right. There seems to be a black sheep in each of the families. I feel a little bad for Boruv, it's not easy being a leader.
#dreemerforlife
I feel the same!!! Being at the head is not an easy task!!
What could be the reason behind these youngsters' rebelliousness? From the story, we see that they are loved wholeheartedly by their families but sometimes even love isn’t enough.
The absence of a family member hits differently. I pray these rebels find their way home soon as there’s no place like home😃
Always a #dreemerforlife
truly... sometimes its just deep in the heart!
i have a extra treat for you when the next post drops... hehehe you'll see in 3 hours :)
Stubbornness. Haha.
I see my junior brothers behavior here.
#dreemerforlife
hehehehe my mom read this story and she loved Myrtille the best! LOLOL
she saw his card too - and said oh look at his face!!! he's so bold!!! LOLOLOL
I think she found her favorite character! hahahaha
Lol.. who doesn't love Myrtile? Hehe.
Boruv is really going through a lot as the leader. Infact, we just need someone to open the eyes of these rebels and let them see the effects of their actions towards the others.
#dreemerforlife
and sometimes.... rebels just can't be reached!
I wonder how the plot will unfold - will some eyes be opened?!?!? let's see...
we meet new characters in 3 hours :)
I'm curious to see how Borův's visit to the Blackberries will unfold and if he'll find the guidance he seeks.
Great job on crafting such a compelling narrative Dreemie 🤗
#dreemerforlife
oh - it is not me who is crafting...
its three of us -
my son-in-love, my daughter, and me! hehehe
so i share your enjoyment with them!!! :)
and get ready - we will have another story dropping in just 3 hours hehehe
No family is perfect, there's always one who wouldn't agree with the family's values. And here too we have plants showing it, hehehe.
#dreemerforlife

Another interesting story for a new week, we muveee this week to create our story
#dreemerforlife
hehehe come back in 3 hours to meet MORE characters!! :)
I hope Myrtille is handy with a tool belt! After wrecking people's homes that many times I would be holding him accountable for his damages... and if he does not want to cooperate, I hear Zekka is looking for a roommate 😆 #dreemerforlife
HAHAHAHAH
if Zekka doesn't spank him first! LOLOLOL
get ready for meeting new characters in just 3 hours... and i was a little impatient - so i gave you all a surprise!
hehehe and there will PROBABLY be another clue dropping in PYPT! :)
see you there!!!
A leader has to go through a lot and has to sacrifice a lot too, this is a good storyline too.
#dreemerforlife
yes - for such a little boy - he has a great spirit of leadership! lets see how he gets on when he makes his way to the Blackberries!
Indeed, Leadership is a great sacrifice!
People in the class of Myrtylle are often found mostly in every family, though they might be seen as black sheep through their stubbornness, but I think they help refine a true leader as leadership is all about testing.
What a wonderful write-up!
#Dreemerforlife
you're very correct in that.... a leader who hasn't been tested isn't a TRUE leader yet
must be refined in the fire! heheheh
let's see what happens - and in 3 hours - another story drops :) come and enjoy :)

Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Thank you
Each family has a misfit. But would it not be a little too easy to just have them come together as one family? After all, family is more than just genes.
However, will a group of headstrongs make a great team, I doubt. Every ecosystem needs a balance. Like ying yang, laws of attraction, or whatever theory out there suggests, balance is everything in life.
If we could merge one fiery character out of them, then they'd be a fit for another kind of merge. Am I talking too much? Maybe.
But dear Dreemie you've got my attention now.
So this is how my elder brother feels anytime I’m stubborn?
Poor Boruv🥹
#dreemerforlife
This was another lovely read and I love the movement of things at this point.
Myrtille is a special kind though stubborn like the other girls of the pepper and mint family. Well, now I'm a bit curious of the blackberry family, is there going to be a special one too? I wonder 🤓.
I love the playfulness of the blueberries as a family. It is unfortunate that Myrtille was insensitive and didn't have respect for boundaries (and this can lead to unending fights even in a loving family).
I am looking forward to meeting the blackberries, though, as well as all the other characters.
I am following this story with keen interest, dear Dreemie.
#dreemerforlife
It's quite a journey. The truth is that families are all different, they have characters that change over time, each one has a special role but we love them all very much.
Hello... I'm going to reveal the key here for everyone. You have to merge the rotten pumpkins with each other.
And I think if you merge the mints together it will be good too.
The word "UNO" (ONE), has a meaning here.
hahahaha...good luck!
#dreemerforlife
Lol. I'm not even sure whether to believe you or laugh this away.😂
Did you read this?
Don't try to mix this up!
😁
This got me emotional I must confess. It hurts to have a once upon a time loving family go apart like that. I mean look at how they were, all happy and having fun then suddenly... Boruv is a great leader, others would have cared less about what is what's happening but he made a bold move to seek out solution for his family, unlike other families.
