I hear a familiar voice and feel something gently poking me in the side.
"Wake up, wake up! It's time to get up."
Twinkleshine persistently wakes me up. “Just a minute, I want to sleep,” I muttered half asleep and wrapped myself in the blanket even more. But suddenly, the feeling of a blanket disappears and it interrupted my sweet dream.
I opened my eyes little by little and saw Twinkleshine holding a blanket in her aura. She put the blanket next to me and said, "Take off your pajamas and come down, breakfast is ready."
I said I would come shortly and big sis left the room, I looked around myself, remembering the events of the previous day. Pleasant sensations and emotions filled me, and after a few moments of flashback, I began to take off my pajamas.
I have experienced some problems with this since I had no experience with this, but I got it right, then got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.
After all the morning rituals, I left the bathroom and headed for the stairs to go down to the kitchen. As I walked down the stairs, my nose caught a familiar smell, but I couldn’t figure out what it was, and so I hurried to the kitchen with curiosity to find out what smelled like that.
Going into the kitchen, I closed my eyes and sniffed at the smell, gladly letting the smell of my nose and letting my flavors enjoy. ‘I can smell and taste much better than in the human body,’ I said again in my head.
“Someone seems to like it,” I heard Twinkleshine's giggling voice.
I opened my eyes and nodded approvingly. Then I climbed into my place at the table and examined the plates of food, I saw bagels familiar to me from the human world. I looked at my portion with anticipation, as I remember how delicious it was and assumed that it would be many times better now.
“Sis, what are you waiting for? You can start your meal," Twinkleshine said, walked over to her seat and sat down at the table.
They were bagels with some nut. I tried this with a light bite, it tasted like sesame and overall the bagels tasted much better than in the human world. After finishing, I thanked Twinkleshine for the delicious meal, she was still eating because she was stretching the pleasure and didn’t eat everything as quickly as I did.
I glanced at her for a second, because I ate everything too quickly, I wanted more. As soon as I turned away and jumped off my seat, I heard a voice behind me, "If you come back to the table, I'll share with you."
I did not hesitate, as if a bullet flew into its place at the table and was looking forward to my additional portion. In turn, Twinkleshine wrapped it in her magical aura and put it on my plate.
This time we finished eating at the same time, because I tried to stretch this bagel for as long as possible. Jumping down from my seat again, I went to my room, but I heard a voice with a stern note, “You haven't forgotten anything?”
I turned and looked at my older sister with a little concern. She glanced at the plate from which I was eating.
I took her hint, she clearly wanted me to clean up after me. Approaching the plate, I enveloped it in my magic and carried the plate to the sink. ‘My magic has gotten better, but it’s still difficult,’ I thought.
After cleaning up after myself, I again went to my room, but again I did not succeed.
“I want to tell you that today we need to go to Ponyville." Twinkleshine said.
I was a little confused, but quickly recovered and immediately said, “But why do we need go to Ponyville? "
“Well ... your birthday is coming up and you need to look pretty,” Twinkleshine said and winked at me.
While my brain was processing what she said, I stood with a stupid expression on my face, but as soon as all the details gathered in my head, I realized that she meant some kind of clothes.
"Wake up, sleepyhead! You seem to be asleep, ”Twinkleshine said, trying to contain her laughter.
I blushed slightly, but tried to hide it. From the older sister's side, only a smile followed when she noticed this.
“I think it's time for us to go to the station in order to buy tickets. Therefore, if you are not busy, then we leave right now. "
After a few minutes of thought, I replied, "Of course, let’s go."
We went to the exit from the house, and then went down the street. This time our destination was the train station.
On the way, as always, I kept close to my older sister, but this time a little more freely, I also noticed that the sun was already approaching early noon.
When we arrived at the station, I saw many ponies of various ages, some with bags, some without. Some ponies greet or see someone off. But we passed everyone and headed to the checkout.
We stood in line, for me the time passed very slowly and I got bored, but since there were a lot of strangers at the station, I really didn't want to leave my older sister, so I had to endure my boredom.
In the end we got to the checkout, there weren't many ponies in the queue, but for me the time passed unimaginably long.
After Twinkleshine bought the tickets, she told me that we need to wait about half an hour. We went to a place to sit down to wait for the train and along the way we bought ice cream to have a snack.
‘I wonder what the train will look like?’ I mused.
"What are you thinking about?" Twinkleshine asked me
At this time we were already sitting on the bench and waiting for the train, ‘I’m thinking a little,’ I thought.
“Well ... Nothing, I just sit and think about nothing,” I replied.
Twinkleshine seemed to accept my answer, but it seemed to me that she was unhappy with my answer and that made me a little uncomfortable too.
The rest of the time we sat in silence, but when the sound of an approaching train was heard, it also appeared in the field of view. Twinkleshine perked up a little, asked me to get ready. We got up and walked to the platform, and many other ponies also approached us, who were also preparing for landing.
The train itself is a pink locomotive with bogies of different colors: brown, pink and purple.
We entered the pink carriage and headed for the empty seats. There were plenty of places inside, some of the seats had beautiful and unusual green partitions, and the windows had curtains drawn on the floor.
We found a comfortable place for us, after which we sat down comfortably and waited for the train to start moving.
"How long are we going to go?" I asked Twinkleshine.
“I think for about 20 minutes,” my older sister told me.
When the train started, I looked out the window and was carried away by the scenery outside the window. We descended the mountain and the further we drove away from the city, the more it fascinated me. Now, from afar, this place on the mountain really looked like a capital, large and majestic. Now I really realized how big this city was.
Gradually we moved away and the train descended more and more from the mountain, and now many trees surround me and it seems that all these trees were filled with apples. Various houses and buildings rushed past me, and in the end we reached the station.
When we went outside, my impressions were confirmed. Ponyville looked like a big village or a small town.
Twinkleshine went somewhere, asking me to follow her. After a while, we passed a large bizarre tree, from which windows protruded everywhere and there were a couple of balconies and at the very base there was a red door.
"What is that?" I asked my older sister, pointing to the bizarre tree.
“This is the Golden Oak Library,” Twinkleshine told me.
Then we passed a small fountain. I also noticed that there are very few ponies here that walk in clothes, and if they do, then this is different from what I saw in Canterlot.
Then we passed by a very beautiful three-storey house, decorated with many bushes and flowers. As we passed this, Twinkleshine said, “This is, if I’m not mistaken, the town hall,” and pointed her hoof in the direction of this building.
Then there was an amazing house, which seemed to say that this place was like a heaven for sweets. The building was like a cookie, and the roof was like a cake.
“This is Sugarcube Corner,” my older sister pointed and told me.
After that, we passed some places, one of which was a toy store, and I seem to stop, gazing at the window, with various toys, but I felt Twinkleshine pushing me to keep up. Therefore, with a little sadness, I stopped looking at the storefront and went further after Twinkleshine.
Then there were several other houses, similar to residential ones, after which a very beautiful and large building appeared before my eyes.
Blue walls, with various white patterns and a purple stripe at the base. Beautiful, striped columns, a roof of different shades of pink, with yellow accents and various other patterns, and on top of the roof, there were several pony figures, like a carousel.
“And this is where we were going. Carousel Boutique. My friend Lyra recommended me, said that there are good dresses at good prices,” said Twinkleshine with a big smile full of happiness.
We went closer to the boutique, and opening the door, went inside, after which there was the sound of a bell, signaling that we had entered.
“Welcome to my first class boutique! I'm Rarity, how may I be able to assist? "
After greeting Rarity, Twinkleshine replied, pointing at me, "The young lady has a birthday soon."
My older sister's words embarrassed me, and I blushed again, and Twinkleshine just giggled at that moment, but then continued.
“I was told that your dresses are of very good quality, will you help us?”
"It will be my pleasure." Rarity replied.
At that moment, I was already hiding behind Twinkleshine's leg, as soon as Rarity got a closer look at me she said, “Come along darling, lets get your measurements taken, to make a dress just for you.”
At the request of Twinkleshine, I nevertheless went out and went to the place indicated by Rarity, after which the measuring tape flew non-stop around me, measuring everything possible and even tickling me sometimes, which sometimes caused me to tremble slightly and giggled.
After finishing the measurements, I was finally free and went down to the floor, after which I was told that my sister and Rarity had something to discuss and so I could wander around the boutique for a while.
I went to the hall where there were many different dresses, I looked through one after another, until I was interrupted by an unexpected, seemingly childish voice, “Hi! I’m Sweetie Belle. What's your name? ”
I was surprised, such an unexpected appearance of the pony, she seemed even smaller than me, but not much, she looked like Rarity, they had similar features, such as their snow-white coat and also unusual hairstyles.
“Hi, I… I’m Midnight Twinkle.” I answered the greeting.
It seems we were both bored, and after I answered her, she smiled. Sweetie Belle wanted to tell me something, but my sister Twinkleshine's voice interrupted her.
“Twinky! It's time for us to leave."
“I have go now, my big sister is calling,” I said.
"I also have an older sister too, this is Rarity! " Sweetie Belle told me.
“And my big sister name is Twinkleshine,” I said.
“They really look alike,” I thought, and after that I waved my hoof goodbye and ran after Twinkleshine.
Leaving the boutique, Twinkleshine stopped, then turned her head to me and said that we would go in for a dress tomorrow, and now we can go to her friend Lyra to spend the night.
Fortunately, we did not have to go far and we quickly found a place where we could spend the night, after which we headed to a restaurant where we could eat, as the time was already approaching evening.
Going to the restaurant, Twinkleshine made an order for herself, after which I told the waiter what I wanted, and when I said that I was finished, Twinkleshine added a dish to the waiter's order.
I tried to find it in the menu, and after I found it, I read the composition of this. It was some kind of salad with different ingredients, some were not familiar to me, but also some vegetables were attached to this dish. But my attention was drawn to broccoli, and even as soon as I saw it, I remembered how tasteless it was.
The waiter who finished the order took the menu and left, and I looked at Twinkleshine and immediately objected.
“But I don't want broccoli! I do not like them! I do not want to eat this.” I said in a slightly offended tone.
"Then you won't eat at all and when we return to the room where we will sleep, you will get a timeout." Twinkleshine told me in a stern voice
"But…"
“No buts,” Twinkleshine said in a stern voice again.
“In addition to sweets, you need to eat right, and this food includes vegetables, including these broccoli, so you first eat all the good things and only then start sweets,” added Twinkleshine.
"But…"
At that moment, Twinkleshine gave me a look that showed that no objection was accepted. Therefore, I had to agree with her and I hung my head, sat and waited for my order, feeling a slight resentment for the fact that I was forced to eat broccoli.
After a while, food was brought to us. As my sister told me, I first proceeded to the salad and vegetables, after removing the broccoli. When I finished, I pulled up the milkshake I ordered, but didn't get it because Twinkleshine intercepted it and pointed to the half-eaten vegetables.
“Eat your broccoli first,” Twinkleshine told me in a stern voice, adding her own look.
Lowering my ears, I pulled up the bowl of vegetables and continued to eat, since there was no use in resisting.
After each broccoli, I felt a little unwell for a second, but I swallowed quickly to get rid of this feeling faster.
"Was it as bad as you thought?" Twinkleshine asked me when I was done with all the vegetables, but I just mumbled back in a disgruntled way, "I don't like broccoli."
While I was sitting with an offended look, the same milkshake that was taken from me appeared in my face. “Here you go,” Twinkleshine told me.
While I was drinking my drink Twinkleshine said, “I’m sorry, I’m trying to take care of you, as our parents did.” Her ears dropped and a tear escaped her, “And love you like they did.”
What Twinkleshine just told me touched me so much that I couldn’t squeeze out a single word, but I couldn’t just leave it as it was, so I got out of my seat, sat down next to my big sister and hugged her as hard as I could.
She seemed to be a little surprised, because she probably did not notice how I approached, but she quickly accepted my hug, and it seems she felt a little better.
I didn’t move away from Twinkleshine, so I sat closer to her and snuggled up to her, then pulled my drink and continued my meal.
After finishing the meal, my mood improved and my sister and I went to a place where we can spend the night.
"What ... what about the dress we went for today?" I asked with great awkwardness in my voice.
"We'll pick it up tomorrow when it's ready, don't worry." Twinkleshine answered me.
We walked the rest of the way in silence, fortunately not for long. We came to the house of a friend of my big sister. It was a unicorn pony, with a light green coat and a mint-colored mane and Twinkleshine said, this pony's name was Lyra.
She offered us dinner, but we politely refused because we had already eaten, so I went to get ready for bed, while Twinkleshine stayed to chat with her friend.
As Twinkleshine came up she said, “Sorry I was hard on you today, but remember it's necessary,”
“I understand,” I replied with a bowed head.
After that, I felt like my older sister hugged me and I hugged her back.
After a few moments, the already joyful voice of Twinkleshine exclaimed, "Now it's time to sleep, otherwise the tickling monster will take you!"
