I was getting a bad feeling as Aunt Chloe glared at Sarah. "this is not what it looks like Chloe. I was gonna turn it into the office" Sarah said. "uh-huh" Aunt Chloe said sarcastically. "sure" Aunt Zoey said sarcastically too.
Molly and Alma walked over to us. "chill out Chloe. Sarah did not take your bracelet" Alma said. "yeah. just because it was in her pocket it doesn't mean she stole it" Molly said. "Molly is right Aunt Chloe. you can't be jumping to conclusions so quickly" I said.
I saw Uncle Shep who smiled at me after I said that. "Don't tell me what I can and can't do Lana! did you have something to do with this too?!" Aunt Chloe shouted. "No Aunt Chloe I had nothing to do with this" I said. "what's going on here?" A voice said.
I turned around to see my brother Mufasa, my nephew Simba, and my best friend Nala who walked up to us. "hey guys" I said greeting them.
"is everything okay Lana? we heard yelling so we came to check on you" Mufasa said. "oh well, Aunt Chloe thinks that Sarah took her bracelet because,
it fell out of her pocket. she then is blaming me that I took her bracelet but I didn't" I said. "Don't worry Lana we believe you" Nala said.
"Chloe, why do you think my sister took your bracelet?" Mufasa said. "because she is friends with Sarah" Aunt Chloe said. "UGH!" I yelled angrily.
Nala put a paw on my shoulder to comfort me. "look Chloe, just because Lana is friends with Sarah doesn't mean she took your bracelet" Nala said.
"right" I said. "and just because the bracelet fell out of Sarah's pocket doesn't mean she took it" Molly said again. Sarah and I were very angry now. "right.
you both need to apologize to me and Lana RIGHT NOW!" Sarah yelled. "gosh Sarah you're being overdramatic about this" Aunt Chloe said.
"yeah and besides if we all want to look good in the parade we all have to get along" Bailey said. I sighed. Bailey was right. If we all want to look good,
we all have to get along and put this behind us. "alright, let's get back to practicing" Sarah said. we all nodded and got back to practicing.
It's the next day and I am in the stable with Molly and Alma getting ready for practice. when we got our horses all saddled up we walked over to Calypso's stall,
where Molly was still getting ready. "ready Molly?" Alma asked. "yeah, just a second" Molly said. "oh no!" we heard Molly cry.
"what's wrong Molly?" I said. "the class watch broke again. it is my favorite watch. do you wanna see?" Molly said. I and Alma nodded. she then opened her watch reveling a picture of my Mama Calypso when she was young. "Calypso was only three months old,
in this picture" Molly said. "aww" Alma and I said. "Mama, that was you when you were young?" I said. "yeah Lana, that's what I looked like when I was young" Calypso said. "you were cute when you were young" I said.
"thanks" Calypso said. "alright, we should head to practice now" Alma said. "okay" I said. "I will have to take this back to the repair shop later" Molly said. as we were gonna walk to practice Alma realized she forgot something. "oh I forgot something.
hold Button for me" Alma said. she then went to Button's stall. "whats Alma getting mother?" I said. "I'm not sure" Button said. a few seconds later,
Alma returned crying. "my necklace. it's gone!" Alma said. "oh no" I said. we then walked to practice and told the others what has happened.
"my necklace. It was given to my grandfather before him and then me. it was supposed to help us in the parade" Alma said between sobs. "oh no, I'm so sorry Alma.
I haven't seen your necklace" Sarah said. I looked at my family and saw my husband Scar glaring at me. "Scar did you take Alma's necklace?!" I shouted.
"no Lana. how dare you blame me for this?!" Scar yelled. he then shocked me and I yelled in pain. "LANA!" Molly cried worried for me.
I gasped for air. "are you okay?" Molly said. "yeah I am fine" I said. "leave her alone Scar" Nala said in a firm voice. "Im sorry you lost your necklace.
but it is not gonna help us now" Aunt Chloe said. "that's strange. I left my keys in the tack room but they weren't there" Bailey said.
"oh I hope they will turn up" Sarah said. "yeah I hope so" Bailey said. after practice, Sarah and I headed to lunch together. when we sat down,
Sarah spoke up. "hey sorry we are late" Sarah said. all of our friends were giving us dirty looks. I was getting nervous.
"what? Is there dirt on our faces?" I said as I and Sarah felt our face. "Yeah about that... Sarah, Lana, do you happen to have anything missing. like any of your belongings?" Bailey asked us. "umm no?" Sarah said. "its really weird.
first Alma's necklace was gone. then it was Molly's watch and now my keys" Bailey said. "what?!" I shouted as I stood up. "you think we took your stuff?! you think we stole from our very best friends?!" Sarah shouted as she also stood up from her chair.
"wait no Sarah its not like that!" Molly cried. Sarah and I threw our lunches away. we lost our appetite and we did not want to eat. "tell us when you guys do find your stuff. in the meantime find another friend" Sarah said with tears streaming down her face.
"wait guys we never...' Alma started. "don't worry. I wouldn't want you guys to ride in the parade with us when you guys think we are thieves" I said.
I also had tears streaming down my face too. when we left we heard our friends shouting for us to come back. "come on Sarah,
let's go to my room for a bit and watch a movie or something" I said. Sarah nodded to sad to talk. as we were walking to my room I ran into my mom Uru,
and my dad Ahadi. they noticed our tears and looked concerned. "what's wrong sweetie, what happened?" Uru said. "its nothing mom I am, fine" I said.
I wiped the tears from my eyes. "your not fine Lana something must have happened" Ahadi said. I sighed. my dad was right, I was not fine.
I took a deep breath and spoke up, "our friends are blaming us for something we didn't do. they think we took there stuff,
but we did not" I said. "what makes them think that?" Ahadi said. "this all started when Chloe's bracelet accidently fell out of my pocket.
they then thought it was Lana too because she is my friend" Sarah said. "oh we're sorry that happened. we hope you guys figure this out" Uru said.
"yeah I hope so" I said. "you wanna ride in the other paddock with me Lana" Sarah said. "yeah sure, lets go" I said.
we then left to go saddle up our horses.
