"Good Morning world", Lana came jumping down the stairs all excited to begin her new journey. Luna and Laney were just as excited but didn't let it show as much. Mystic said, " now girls, you know this is going to be tricky? Right?" In unisen, they all replied "yes, Mystic, we know". "I just want you to be prepared while your there." They all shooke their heads, with a little giggle. "Ok now, go finish your breakfast and I'll take you off." With all the excitement, they ran off.
On their walk to school, Mystic reminded them of the rules and the password, " you are not to go with anyone or let anyone tell you one or the other is hurt and you must go with them, unless... " we know Mystic, unless they say doodle", " ok then". As they continued to walk, Luna asked " Mystic, what if no one likes us? Or no one talks to us"? Mystic replied " now why on earth wouldn't anyone like you? Or talk to you?" " maybe they'll think we're weird or ugly or who knows what people will think." " honey if they do, just don't mind them, most times when someone is mean to an other it's usually because of something going on in their own life, but you girls know that. What you girls need to remember, just be kind and understanding, if someone dosen't like you, it's not you. Try to be patient, but do NOT let anyone push you around". "Tell the teacher!"
"Ok look we are here". Mystic leaned over kissed each of them and told them she would see them after school and above all else have a great day. Mystic worried all they way home. She also knew this needed to happen and it would all work out, after all ther was a reason they needed to attend school now. The didn't know there was a child in trouble and they were there to help. Mystic didn't share that with them on their very first day, she felt they were already nervous enough. She wasn't sure herself which child was in danger or how it would even be brought to the girls attention. Now it was time to practice what she preached, patience. The day seemed to drag on. Mystic found herself with not much to do once she had already done all of her chores.
Finally, it was time for her to leave. She was so excited to about the girls day at school. How much homework would they have? Did they meet any new friends? What about boys? What subject did they like the best? Wow so many questions she thought to herself. Before she knew it she was at the school, waiting for the bell to ring.
The bell rings, the doors swing open and all these kids come running out, screaming and laughing. The crowd thins and here come her three, smiling and laughing talking like they couldn't get it all out fast enough. A shy of relief came over me. They pick their heads up and glance the grounds, their eyes meet mine, my arms open and they come running into them. Laughing and hugging me all talking at once. "I say girls, one at a time, you can each have a turn as we walk home"'. "Me first" says Luna. "Ok, let's go!"
As they walk home each girl has a story to tell. They are so happy they got to go to real school. Before we knew it, we we home. They all drop their bags, head for the kitchen for a snack. As I open the fridge, I begin to peel oranges and cut up some apples, the girls are sitting around the island watching and talking. "Luna, did you see that boy I think his name is Arthur?" Said Laney. "Yes, I did", said Luna. " " I think he lives in our neighborhood ." Lara just stood and listened. She was a little quieter than the other two, but she was always thinking and watching, she dosent miss a trick. Lara is the reader of the bunch, she has an imagination like no other.
