Free Farrah in Fairyland by B.R. Stranges

her friend.
    “Farrah – your
parents are going to kill you! I think it is best if we leave right
now. We’ll come back tomorrow – I promise.”
    Farrah was
still focused on the riddle. She was in one of her classic trances
again. Although Giuseppi continued to plead for her to go home, she
didn’t hear him; she was too focused. Aggravated, Giuseppi was
about to leave his friend behind when she shouted out.
    “I’ve got it!
The reason why it seems that a Fairy has more Pixie dust, but in
actuality, they don’t have more Pixie dust, is because they are
standing in between two mirrors, looking into both at the same
time.”
    “What?” asked
a confused Giuseppi.
    “Don’t you
see, Giuseppi, if a Fairy is standing with their back to one mirror
and looking into another, the Pixie Dust would look infinite.”
    Without
warning, the wall shot open. It had disappeared into the ground.
Without hesitation, Farrah entered the room, with Giuseppi
following quickly behind her.

Chapter 11: I See, Do you See?
    It was a tiny
room, although much brighter than the circular shaped room. Fluffy
pillows lined the floor as they entered. Excited, Giuseppi dove
onto them and proceeded to do the backstroke. Farrah’s eyes,
however, where glued to the back of the room. A very large glass
cabinet scraped the ceiling of the room. Behind the glass of the
cabinet were rows and rows of Veddo mirrors. Farrah rushed over to
get a better look. She tripped, nearly falling to the ground, as
her feet were unable to work as fast as her enthusiastic brain.
    Farrah was
thrilled at the anticipation of seeing and touching a Veddo.
However, standing in front of the cabinet she realized that
strangely, there wasn’t a door or a handle to get into the cabinet.
Figuring that there was another riddle to be solved, she swept away
a few pillows from the ground, but no words were revealed.
    Giuseppi
walked slowly over to his friend.
    “You didn’t
think that you would be able to get a hold of one of those Veddos,
did you?”
    “What do you
mean?” Farrah remarked a little snidely.
    “Well, Farrah,
don’t you know that only a Tooth Fairy is able to touch a Veddo.
That’s probably why there isn’t any way of getting into the
cabinet.”
    It felt like
school all over again. Farrah was always being told what she could
and couldn’t do and it always made her angry. She shot Giuseppi a
nasty look.
    “Hey, it’s not
like I made the rules,” responded Giuseppi, not taking kindly to
the look.
    “You should be
happy that you were even able to see a Veddo. I bet only a handful
of fairies have ever been able to solve the riddle to get into this
room.”
    Farrah was
getting that look in her eyes again. She was determined to get into
the cabinet. At that moment, she was willing to do whatever it
took. Abruptly, she left the room and strutted out the front door.
After a few seconds, she came waltzing back into the tiny room
holding a large rock.
    “Farrah, wait
– I don’t think that’s a good idea!”
    With the rock
in her hands, she charged the cabinet throwing it as hard as she
could at the glass. Giuseppi reacted by squinting his eyes tightly.
When he opened his eyes, he realized that the rock had bounced off
the window and landed on the ground next to an oval shaped pillow.
Giuseppi walked over to his friend, placed his hands on her
shoulders and shook her back and fourth frantically. He wanted her
to snap out of her daydream.
    “I can’t
believe you just did that!” I mean it’s one thing to trespass, but
adding vandalism and theft to our repertoire of crimes doesn’t
sound like a good idea, Farrah.”
    Giuseppi felt
uncomfortable having had to scold Farrah. He usually felt nervous
and often became quiet around her. The intense feelings that he had
kept from her, often painted a rosy picture of Farrah. As he moved
closer, one look into her eyes quickly returned the butterflies to
his stomach.
    Giuseppi
blushed as Farrah placed a hand on his cheek.
