Everyone, literally everyone in Dimmsdale has heard of her, the one who is the daughter of the wealthiest family in town, and also the most popular girl in school, the one who drives all the boys (especially Timmy Turner) crazy with her looks, and makes all the girls jealous, I don't think I need to say who I'm talking about, right? Yes, that's her, Trixie Tang.
Well, that was how she was known to most people, and almost everyone loved her, the few exceptions being Tootie, a girl who has a crush on Timmy, but he only has eyes for Trixie, and Timmy's best friends, Chester and AJ, who thought of her as a snobby and shallow girl, and indeed, in public, she actually acted like one.
However, when she was alone, Trixie showed a side that not even the most Crocker... I mean, crazy, would think, that girl who was always making fun of nerds and the things they liked was actually a nerd too.
Yes, in her room, Trixie had stored hundreds (if not thousands) of comic books, action movies, video games and many other things, and deep down, she wished her life was different.
One day, Trixie was in her room, getting ready for a party her mother would take her to, when she looked outside, Timmy and his friends were playing football, and when she saw that she sighed sadly.
Trixie: Look at Timmy and his friends having fun... I so wish I didn't have to go to that party and could have fun with them...
The girl knew that her so-called "friends" were only with her because she was rich and popular, and what she wanted most was to be herself, but she couldn't, because of one person...
The other day it happened, she was playing video games, and was in the last phase of a game that she had been playing for weeks, after several days playing, there she was, facing the final boss, and about to beat the game, when mysteriously, the her video game shut off, and that's when she heard a voice, and felt a shiver run down her spine.
?: Oh no, not again!
That voice belonged to a woman, who looked a lot like Trixie, only taller and older, and she was clearly not happy with what she was seeing, and from the look on the girl's face, it was something she really shouldn't have seen.
Trixie: M..mother, when did you get here?...
Trixie's mom didn't even bother answering her daughter's question, she just looked sternly at the girl, and started talking to her.
Trixie's Mom: I think I should be the one asking questions here. How many times have I told you to put these unpopular things aside?
Trixie: But I...
Trixie's Mom: You're a girl, and besides, this video game and comic book stuff, isn't for people our class.
Trixie: Well, maybe you don't know what I like.
Upon hearing that, Trixie's mom looked at her daughter with great anger.
Trixie's Mom: What did you say?
Trixie (scared): N...nothing...
Trixie's mom (calming down a bit): Excellent, security!
When Trixie heard her mom calling security, she already knew what it was, as it wasn't the first time her mom had done this, and when the security guard appeared in her room, what she feared the most was about to happen.
Trixie's Mom: Take all that stuff to the trash.
Trixie tried to protest, but her mom's opinion didn't change, she was practically crying when the security guard took all her things, when he left, Trixie started to cry.
Trixie (bursting into tears): Mother... Why? Why do you do this to me?
Trixie's Mom: Honey, I'm doing this for your own good, trust me, one day you'll thank me for this.
She walked away, leaving her daughter crying inconsolably in her room.
Here we can see that Trixie's relationship with her mother is not the best, and certainly the girl's popularity means more to her mother than to her, but what about her father? What he thinks of that? Well, he is completely different from his wife.
That same day, right after Trixie's mom left, Trixie's dad arrived, and he saw the security guard carrying a huge garbage bag, and it looked like he knew what that meant.
Trixie's Dad (in his head): Oh no, not again...
He goes to the security guard, and tells him to give him that bag, and when he looks inside the bag, he sees exactly what he expected.
He then goes upstairs, and even without entering Trixie's room he can hear his daughter's cry, so he knocks on the door, and Trixie is excited to see her father.
Trixie: Daddy! Good to see you.
Trixie's Dad: Good to see you too honey, by the way when I got home I found something, I think THIS is yours.
It was then that the girl's tears gave way to a smile, in the bag her father was bringing were all the things her mother had thrown away, and she hugged her father with great joy.
Trixie: Thanks Daddy, you're the best!
Trixie's Dad: Anything for my little girl, but what happened anyway? Oh, don't tell me, it's your mom again, isn't it?
Trixie (sigh): Yes... Daddy, please talk to her about this, she doesn't understand that I don't want to be popular, I just want to be myself, I need your help...
Trixie's Dad: Honey, don't worry about your mom, when you get older she'll forget about all of this, it's just for a few more years, I promise. Well, I have to go now, see you later, whoops, one more thing, hide your stuff better from now on.
Trixie (giggling a little): Okay, leave it to me.
Just by looking at the way she refers to them, we can see see that Trixie's relationship with her father was very different from her relationship with her mother, although her mother did things with her like taking her shopping or to the beauty salon, which were things she liked to do sometimes, her father was the only one who understood that she also liked different things, things that most girls didn't like, like video games and comic books.
In addition, her mother also tells her how she should act with the other students at school, especially those who were "on the other side of the graph", people like Timmy and his friends, but one day, when she was going to school she got a big surprise.
Trixie: Timmy Turner?
That boy who was considered by the popular kids as the biggest loser was now completely different, he was wearing fancy clothes, sunglasses, jewelry, and all the things that the popular kids wore.
Veronica, Trixie's "best friend" couldn't believe what she was seeing, it could only be a trap.
Veronica: Trixie, it's a trap! Nobody gets so popular so quickly!
Even knowing that Veronica was a little crazy, this time, Trixie had to agree with her, just yesterday she had seen Timmy at school and he was still the same pink hatted bucktooth boy he always was, and out of nowhere, today he was wearing fancy clothes, but that alone wasn't enough to consider him popular.
Trixie: My spazmo friend does have a point, you got the popular clothes, now let's see your popular smile.
At that moment, the two girls heard Timmy whisper something to the medalions he was wearing, and shortly after, Timmy showed the girls the brightest teeth they had ever seen, and Trixie was impressed, more than that, she was curious, something was different with Timmy, and she wanted to know what it was, so she decided to spend time with him.
Trixie: May I grace you with my presence?
Timmy: It will be your honor.
Trixie: Wow, you're good!
It's true that many times, strange things happened when Timmy was around, but today was the apex, he was acting in a very different way than everyone was used to, which also annoyed his old friends Chester and AJ, but no one knew for sure how he had become so popular, so during lunch, while they were sitting at the popular table with Tad, Chad and Veronica, Trixie decided to ask him.
Trixie: Timmy, how did you get these clothes?
Timmy: Um... Internet?... Inheritance? Yeah, I... I inherited the internet.
Tad and Chad: Cool!
Tad and Chad may have fallen for Timmy's talk, but Trixie was smarter than them, she knew something was up, and she wanted to find out what it was.
Later, when class was over, the popular kids were thinking about what they would do that night.
Chad: My parents said we can get together at the Country Club.
Trixie: Well my mom says we can take the limo and go to that fancy pizzeria that opened and buy it.
They start to laugh, but when they realize that Timmy isn't laughing, everyone looks at him.
Timmy: Well, my parents are out of town, and they said I could have an party tonight after school at my... Mansion?!
Chad: Wow, that kicks the crud out of my plan.
Now was the chance she wanted, it wasn't news to Trixie or anyone else that Timmy was had a crush on her, he certainly wouldn't keep any secrets from her, so she had an idea, during the party she would act normally, but after all the others left, she would try to talk to Timmy privately for answers.
Still unsure about the answer Timmy had given when asked about his new stuff, Trixie decided to research about that.
Trixie: "Inherit the internet." Is this even possible?
She was researching the story Timmy told about inheriting the internet, and the answer came on a blog from someone who used to be Timmy's friend, AJ.
AJ (on a blog): No, it's not possible, the internet belongs to everyone and no one can own it, I know because I've tried.
That was all the proof she needed, Timmy was hiding something, and she was going to find out what it was, or her name wasn't Trixie Tang.
Trixie: Yeah Mr. Timmy Turner, you have to explain me some things.
Later, she was getting ready to go to the party at Timmy's mansion when her mother entered the room, Trixie was scared to see her mother there because she had arrived without making any noise.
Trixie: Mother, can you at least let me know when you enter my room?
Trixie's mother really had no reason to be in her daughter's room, she just went there to make sure that Trixie didn't keep those "unpopular things" in her room anymore, but, without being able to say that directly to her daughter, she lied.
Trixie's Mom: Sorry honey, I didn't know you were here... What are you doing?
Trixie: A friend of mine from school is having a party tonight at his mansion and he invited me, he's new to school but he's really rich.
Trixie's Mom: Oh, okay then, in that case, go on, sorry for interrupting.
A few minutes later, Trixie was ready to leave, she refused to take the limo as this was something she wanted to do alone, and after walking for a few minutes, she found the rest of the class, Tad, Chad, Veronica, and even Chester and AJ were there, they were a bit confused as no one knew where Timmy's mansion was, luckily Chester and AJ knew the way.
Chester and AJ also wanted something with their former best friend (yes, former best friend, because if Timmy wanted to be someone he wasn't and hang out with fake people, they didn't want to be with him either) But their reason was different, they needed to get a good story by tomorrow morning or they'd be kicked out of the school paper, and they believed that Timmy got rid of his parents and used their insurance money to make himself more popular, and they planned to question him tonight.
However, just before everyone arrived at Timmy's "mansion", everyone was shocked to see the boy in front of them, but he wasn't wearing his fancy clothes anymore, oh no, instead he was wearing the clothes he always wore, except for his signature pink hat, what could have happened? Trixie was the first to break the silence.
Trixie: What happened?
Veronica: Trixie, it's a trap, see? I knew it, I told you... See?
Besides not wearing his fancy clothes or his pink hat, Timmy also looked very sad, as if he had lost someone very important to him, and that was when he confessed the truth in front of the whole class.
Timmy: Guys, I don't have a mansion or a party or any of these stuff, I was just pretending so all of you would like me...
Trixie: But it worked.
Timmy: Yeah, but I want friends who like me for who I am, not what I have (now he was talking specifically to Chester and AJ) sorry I didn't realize this sooner.
It was then that Trixie realized what Timmy had done, he was somehow pretending to be popular to impress her, but in doing so, he was becoming someone he didn't want to be, and that also caused him to lose his true friends, but now he decided to let go of all that, and admit the truth to everyone, so that he could be with his true friends, the people who really like him, thinking about that, Trixie felt proud of Timmy, and ashamed of herself for never having the courage to do the same thing.
And for a while, it seemed like even the other rich kids understood what Timmy meant.
Tad: Wow, I never thought of it that way.
Timmy: Really?
Chad: Yeah, but who cares? We're rich, everybody but Timmy, Chester, AJ and Boil Boy. Party on my yacht!
Trixie: NO!
Timmy: Yes folks, after so long this story will be remade, and believe me, it will be even bigger and better than the first one.
Trixie: And as we saw, the new stuff started right in the first chapter.
Writer: Exactly, this chapter was mainly to show Trixie's relationship with her parents, and also her perspective on when Timmy became popular, and in the next chapter she will discover his secret.
Timmy: Cool, what do you think will happen?
Wanda: Read and find out.
Cosmo: CONTINUES IN THE NEXT CHAPTER.
