Chapter 5 It's Possible
Bonnie smiles slightly, but not fully believing. "But still I wish, I wish I could go to the ball."
Caroline steps towards Bonnie about to say something, then suddenly!
"FOL–DE–ROL AND FIDDLEDY DEE, FIDDLEDY FADDLEDY FODDLE. ALL THE WISHES IN THE WORLD ARE POPPYCOCK AND TWADDLE!"
The both look out the kitchen window to see a women dressed in a shiny brown dress her hair is curly beyond compare. Bonnie speaks first, "Who are you?" The woman smiles, "I'm your Fairy Godmother, honey." Bonnie looks at her with disbelief. "You?" The woman smile fades, "You have a problem with that? 'Cause if you'd rather have some old lady in a tu-tu sprinkling fairy dust I can just-" Bonnie stands up, "No, no I just never drea-"
"FOL-DE-ROL AND FIDDLEDY DEE, FIDDLEDY FADDLEDY FOODLE. ALL THE DREAMERS IN THE WORLD ARE DIZZY IN THE NOODLE." The Fairy Godmother says.
"That's terrible." Caroline says. Fairy Godmother turns to her. "You try coming up with a rhyme on the spot like that." Bonnie chimes in. "No, she meant what you said about dreamers, I mean why shouldn't I dream?" Fairy Godmother smiles, "I can see this is going to take a while. Well, aren't you going to invite me in?" Bonnie goes to the door, "Forgive me of course I am." She opens the door but the Fairy Godmother has disappeared. "Bonnie, I'm in here." Bonnie goes back into the house she sees Caroline's facial expression she to is baffled by how she got in.
"Is it just me or is it freezing in here?" Fairy Godmother says, then lifts her hand and what appears to be magic she lights a fire in the fireplace and closes the door. "How did you do that?" Caroline asks. Fairy Godmother smiles with a shrug. "Practice." Bonnie nods, "So what's your name? If you don't mind me asking." Fairy Godmother smiles, "It's Sheila." Caroline nods then looks at Bonnie. "I always hoped that someone would come take me from here." Sheila crosses her arms. "Bonnie if you want get out of here your going to have to do it yourself. The music's in you deep down in your soul. When you find it nothing will hold you back from walking out that door."
"You don't know her Stepmother, Katherine." Bonnie and Sheila look at her. "Sorry, I'm Caroline. Bonnie's friend I came to try and cheer her up." Sheila looks at the torn dress that Bonnie had yet to change out off. "You both want to know what her problem is?" Bonnie and Caroline nod. "She can't handle how fabulous Bonnie is." Bonnie shakes her head. "Fabulous? Me?" Sheila places her hands on her hips, "Do you see any other person in this room?" Bonnie looks at Caroline. "No, I told you a few moments ago how your step family was jealous of you." Bonnie sighs.
"But, their all I have. Before my father died I promised him we'd all stay together as a family." Sheila places a hand on Bonnie's cheek. "Bonnie this can't be what your daddy had in mind." Bonnie walks back to her chair. "I've dreamt about leaving a dozen times." Sheila looks at Caroline then to Bonnie, "See that's the problem with most dreamers. They dream about what they want instead of really doing it." Bonnie sits in her chair. "I wish that.. I guess wishing is no good either." Caroline walks over and places a hand on her shoulder.
"Everything starts with a wish." Both girls look at her. "You wanted to know what Bonnie was wishing for before you came?" Caroline asks. "That one of those pumpkins in the yard would turn into a big golden carriage and take you to the ball?" Bonnie smiles sadly, "I know what your going to say. Fol-De-Rol and Fiddledy Dee." Sheila smiles hands crossed and finishes, "Fiddledy Faddledy Foddle." Bonnie nods, "Your right it's impossible."
(Godmother)
Impossible, for a plain yellow pumpkin to become a golden carriage.
Impossible, for a plain country bumpkin and a prince to join in
Marriage,
And four white mice will never be four white horses!
Such fol-der-ol and fid-dle-dy dee of course, is- Impossible!
But the world is full of zanies and fools
Who don't believe in sensible rules
And won't believe what sensible people say.
And because these daft and dewey-eyed dopes keep building up impossible
Hopes,
Impossible things are happening every day.
Sheila gets rid of the fire Bonnie stands walking over to her while Caroline watches.
Bonnie: Impossible!
Sheila: Impossible!
Bonnie: Impossible!
Sheila: Impossible!
Bonnie gloomly: Impossible.
Sheila indifferent: Impossible.
Together: Imposs-ible!
Then Sheila goes out the door Bonnie and Caroline follow her out. "Wait, if impossible things are happening everyday then why shouldn't I have impossible hopes and dreams? Even something as impossible as going to the ball." Sheila faces her. "Then go to the ball, Bonnie. Go no one is stopping you, but you." Caroline chimes in. "But she doesn't have any way to get there." Sheila nods. "Godmother I've been wishing as hard as I can." Sheila smiles. "I know you have Bonnie. Stand over there go ahead, you to Caroline." They stand behind Sheila to her left.
Sheila uses her magic to lift a pumpkin it goes up then quickly falls. Sheila shrugs then mutters, "What's the matter with me? Especially after 600 years." She tries again using some more magic. She pushes the pumpkin to the entrance and soon it turns into a golden carriage. "Oh my goodness." Bonnie says. Sheila smiles. "We need some horses. Let me see." She turns slightly waving her hand inside the house. Then she brings the mice's cage outside the cage disappears and the mice transform into four beautiful white horses. "So beautiful." Caroline says Sheila nods. "Don't you run away from me." She waves her hand three more mice and they transform into, two footmen and a Coachmen.
"Just like in my dream." Bonnie says not believing they are real. They go to their places, "We have footmen, a Coachmen, horses and a carriage is their anything else that I have forgotten?" Bonnie looks down at her attire, while Caroline smiles. "Spin around, don't make me do all the work." Bonnie does and soon her dress is transformed into a beautiful strapless sea green ball gown with matching gloves. Her hair that was in a bun has been pulled to the side the back of her head braided while the rest is in curls. Bonnie lifts her dress to see that she's wearing glass slippers. Bonnie gasps Caroline hugs her. "You look amazing!" Bonnie smiles then hugs Sheila.
"Thank you, Godmother." Bonnie starts to enter the carriage. "There's one tiny detail before I forget. You must leave the ball before the clock strikes twelve. It's very important." Bonnie looks at her, "Before twelve?" Sheila crosses her arms. "Look I don't make the rules. That magic only lasts till midnight. Come on Bonnie it's time to go." She smiles then gets in the carriage. Bonnie blows a kiss to Caroline and her Godmother before sitting back the carriage starts to move.
