It was a bright sunny day in Ponyville, Lyra was smiling non-stop as she trotted out of her house, "yay, I'm going to help Bon Bon today," she said internally with a big smile on her face as she walked to Bon Bon's candy shop, she have always liked her candy because it tasted better than any candy she have ever tasted before, she can't control her excitement and without knowing, she just hopped along the way without even caring what other ponies think. She finally reached Bon Bon's candy shop which was named 'Sweet Tooth', Lyra entered the shop and she saw that Bon Bon was busy resupplying the candies. "Bon Bon, I'm here," said Lyra, Bon Bon was surprised to see that Lyra came really early, "Lyra, I didn't expect you to come this early," she replied as she climbed down her ladder, "of course, you're my best friend and I am happy that you called me here," she said to Bon Bon, Lyra went inside and closed the door, she placed her saddlebag next to the counter, "so Bon Bon, what do you want me to do today? Play some music or help you with the sales?" she asked, Bon Bon was so happy to see that her best friend was excited for her, "I'm glad that you're excited about this, I just want you to play some of your beautiful music to attract some ponies to my shop, you did bring your lyre, right?" she asked, "of course, I'll bring my lyre everywhere for you," she answered and she took out her lyre from her saddlebag with her magic, Bon Bon was finished with resupplying the shop and was ready for it to be opened, she flipped the sign on the entrance to open from closed and ran as quickly as she could to the counter, "go on Lyra, play that sweet tune," she said to Lyra, Lyra obeyed what Bon Bon said and played her lyre, the sound of the music was beautiful and Bon Bon was happy just to hear it, Not long after that, a little colt came to the shop, "hey there little guy, what can auntie Bon Bon get you today?" Bon Bon asked him with a soft voice, "can I get two bags of your most delicious candy?" he asked, "sure thing, let me get that for you," she climbed up a ladder to reach the candy that the colt wanted and she brought it down, she scooped up the candy to fill two bags and gave it to him, "Here you go little ones, please enjoy it," she said with a smile, The colt paid Bon Bon and left with the candy, "you did a wonderful job on that colt, Bon Bon," praised Lyra, she had always known that Bon Bon was a very kind mare who would always help anypony in need, she was glad to have her as a best friend, "I know, that colt really was happy, I guess your music helped too," she praised her back, "Aww, I'm sure that you did most of the work," she blushed after that compliment, A couple of minutes later, a mailpony came, "letter for Miss Bon Bon," he said as he entered the room, Bon Bon went away from the counter to take the letter, she took the letter from the mailpony's hoof and he left, "hmm, I wonder who sent me this letter?" she asked herself, She opened it and saw the sender's name, she was shocked to have read it which caused Lyra to stopped playing the music and went to ask her what's wrong, "Bon Bon, are you okay?" she asked but bon Bon didn't reply, instead she galloped towards the storage room and locked herself in there, "Why? Why must she do this to me? I don't want it yet," she asked herself, Lyra was worried that something bad might happen to her so she knocked the door and asked her what's wrong again, "Bon Bon, tell me what's wrong? Maybe I could help?" asked Lyra, Bon Bon didn't reply, she was too worried that Lyra couldn't accept it, she might be heart-broken, "Please Bon Bon, come out, let me help you," she said through the door, Bon Bon finally came out but she was calm, but the wet fur underneath her eyes proved that she was crying, "Bon Bon, what's wrong?" Lyra asked again, Bon Bon was too persistent on not telling her and went back to the counter, Lyra was getting concerned about Bon bon, first she locked herself in the storage room and next, she went out of it with a calm face like nothing happened, she asked her again but it annoyed Bpn Bon, "Lyra! Stop asking me these questions, you can't help me in this one!" she shouted and Lyra was flinched, "But…" she was interrupted, "But nothing, you can't help me and I think you better go, now!" she shouted, Lyra was tearing up, she had never expected those words to come out of her best friend's mouth, so she put back her lyre and quickly galloped out of the shop crying, "what have I done, this is not what I intend to do, I don't want anypony, especially her to get hurt," she can't help but regretting what she said to Lyra, she read the letter and cried again, "why must mother do this to me?" she asked herself, Bon Bon can't carry on with her business at her current state so she decided to close it for now. She trotted back home with regret and disappointment, Lyra was not feeling better too, after she reached her home she jumped at her bed and cried, "Bon Bon, why must you be angry at me/ I'm sorry if I ever offend you," she shouted, She grabbed a picture of the two of them together and started to cry even harder, she remembered of the times when they were together, all the times they played together at the park, where Bon Bon would never get mad at her, Bon Bon was worried about her friend too, she know that she must leave Ponyville for good and doing that will cause Lyra to be all alone, but she had to do it, she grabbed a piece of paper and a quill and wrote to Lyra.
