Chapter 32 - Chapter 30: Wings To Fly

Selene: Hi, mom... I grabbed dinner out, going straight to bed.

Nivi: I got a call from Jake. You were a no-show for dog walking.

Selene: I got so busy this afternoon. I couldn't fit in.

Nivi: Are you feeling ok?

Selene: I'm just tired...sorry, I can't keep my eyes open.

Selene yawns.... "I'd better turn in". Her wings pops up when her mom gets occupied with washing vessels.

Selene: Good night mom! (moves faster to hide herself).

Nivi: Good night my dear!

Selene enters her bedroom...

Selene: Lara...what are you doing here?

Fairy Lara: I came to see how you are going with the wings?

Selene: My mom almost saw them. How much longer will they last?

Fairy Lara: Umm..the spell's good for a few hours, so I better get you in the air, before it airs off.

Selene: I don't think so...!

Fairy Lara: You expect me to think that you don't want to try flying?

Selene: Out there? For real?

Fairy Lara: There are just a few rules to know first before I let you lose out there. We don't want any accidents happening... The most important thing to remember is to watch where you are going. Keep an eye out for talk trees, power poles, balloons, kites and of course birds. Got all that, I think! And keep a good steady beat with your wings, because you don't wanna go too fast. It will be vulgar if you flap them at super speed. Nobody would like a show-off.

Selene: I never realised there is so much to flying. I thought you just pooped your wings and took off like an aeroplane.

Fairy Lara: Ah...well good flying is like good dancing. It must look effortless. And also don't fly with your mouth open.

Selene: Got it.

Fairy Lara: If you do so, you might swallow a bug. The night will be full of them. Okay, so are you ready?

Selene: Ah..how do I make myself fly?

Fairy Lara: Imagine it!

Selene: Really...

The next day....

Selene: You can't drag me from the basketball game like that ?

Fairy Lara: But our magical classes are important too!

Selene: Right now, nothing is important than making my team win.

Professor hands over the exam papers to class..

Selene: I failed .. but why?

Professor: Lack of attendance

Fairy Lara: It's not Selene's fault, she right now into a lot of pressure.

Selene: I have a really important basket ball match tomorrow! I don't have time to study.

Elf Abbe: What's so important to throw a ball into a hoop using magic?

Selene: It's not that easy Abbe!

Professor Peter: So all you're not ready for the test tomorrow?

Selene: Yes, Professor. Can I take it once I finish my match?

Peter: Yes, you have loads of responsibilities in human world right now. So, I prepared to give you some leeway. Get back soon for the test!

Selene: Thank you Professor!

The next day Selene plays basketball with her team and wins the match. She gets surprised to meet Kane at the playground. He comes to Selene and hugs her tightly, while Elena runs towards them. They all smile together with a trophy on their hands.
