I'm following a very strict recipe. It's called magic pancakes. It includes a pinch of fairy dust. Got that. My magic pancakes are the best, if I do say so myself. Just then, I get a call from my bestie, Katie.

She sounds stuffed up.

"Jenny?" She asks. "My mom delivered a message on the latest moving news. I just wanted to check in, I'm gonna miss you with the move and all." She hangs up.

Huh? I'm not moving. What is this rubbish? I go to my mom.

"Are we moving?" I ask. My pancake timer goes off. I grab the pancakes. They are perfect.

At dinner I ask again. I'm sure this is a stupid joke. But, Mom nods and dad smiles at me grimly. 

"What?" I scream. "Why wouldn't you tell me? Why?" Before they can answer, I storm out of the room. I, Jenny, am not moving! I will never leave the house! Never! Never, never! Mom comes in. 

"Sweetheart, are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I grump.

"I know this is a big change. But, it's in a human house!!"

Even worse!

It's time to move. I say bye to Katie tearfully.

"Bye."

"Bye."

"I'll miss you."

"No, you will be to busy with humans."

"I don't want to meet humans!"

"Bye."

"Bye, Katie."

The house is big with black marble floors and chandeliers everywhere. My room is cozy. It has different color wallpaper everywhere. A squished pink bed is in the corner. The bathroom is small and messy. I Fairy-mail Katie.

Fairy mail- To Katie  at 168 Creamy drive. Fairy mail- From Jenny at Grape ave. 

Dear Katie,

I miss you so much. I will send you letters and we will hang out still. You are still my best friend, right?

Sincerely,

Jenny

Dear Jenny,

I miss you too. We can hang out, if Lola can come. We're still friends.

Sincerely,

Katie

Lola. Arg. Lola is my enemy and Katie's friend. They must be best friends now that I'm not in their way. Katie said we were still friends, but I'm not sure she thinks we're best friends. This feels like when I met Lola. 

Me: Hi. Katie, who is she?

Katie: This is my friend, Lola! She's darling.

Me: Hey Lola! I'm Jenny, Katie's best friend!

Lola: Oh, hey. Katie, what are you doing with her?

Katie: Don't know. Ooh, let's go play!

Lola: Yeah!

They left me behind in the dust.

My mother comes in.

"Hello Jenny."

"Hey mom."

"You have your first day of school tomorrow! Anyway, it's getting late so go to bed."

"Okay mom." 

It's morning. I yawn and try to fall back to sleep. Then I remember I have my first day of school today! I pull on a pink ball gown. It's long with pink roses embroidered in it. It comes with a matching headband. I feel beautiful. I hear the bus honk and get on. 

The bus is crammed with kids. I take a seat next to a girl in the back row. She has long blond hair, blue eyes, and a green dress. 

"Hello." She whispers to me. "What's your name?"

"Jenny.:" I reply. "You?"

"Tania. Nice to meet you." 

Then the bus stops. We are at school. Tania walks with to the front door. 

"What class are you in?" She asks.

"Homeroom 136."

"Me too!" Se exclaims. Then she does something crazy. She links her arm in mine and leads me down the hall. I smile. I think I've already found a new best friend.

Miss Millie is our teacher.

"Hello!" She greets me. "You must be our new student, Jenny. Welcome!" 

I grin. "Hey! I'm Jenny. Pleasure to meet you!"

"What nice manners! Do sit down. There's a seat next to Nina over there."

I sit down. Nina has short black hair and coal dark eyes. I smile at her. She glares back. 

"Hello." I lean over to whisper to her.

Nina rolls her eyes. "Hey."  

Before I can respond it's math time. 

Now it's lunch. I sit next to Tania. 

"What's up with Nina?:" I ask.

"Just ignore her." Tania wrinkles her nose. "She's not very nice.

At recess, I dash over to play with Tania, but she's hanging out with some girls I don't know. I play alone. After school, I write Katie a letter.

Fairy Mail: To Katie at 168 Creamy drive. Fairy Mail: From Jenny at Grape ave.

Dear Katie, 

I miss you. School is awesome. I met a new friend named Tania. I have a great teacher as well. Tania is so nice. I also met a girl named Nina who sits next to me in class.

Sincerely,

Jenny

Fairy mail: To Jenny at Grape ave.

Fairy mail: From Katie at 168 Creamy drive.

Dear Jenny,

Sounds like you like humans. Well, me and Lola are best friends now. You shouldn't write since you love your new school so much. Sounds like Tania's such a great friend.

Not sincerely in your case,

Katie 

I read Katie's letter 30 times. She's not being fair! I just said I liked Tania and Miss Millie and I met Nina. I feel like crying. I go to bed early. I wake up and get on the bus. 

"Hey Jenny! Over here!" Tania yells from the back of the bus. We sit together.
