Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust

Pixie Comes Home

Fairy Dust paced back and forth in the new unfamiliar kitchen. ‘Where is she, oh where is she.’ She was more than afraid that something had happened to Pixie as she wasn’t home yet and it was beginning to get late.

She looked at the clock to confirm that it was in fact getting late, and looked over at the new purple maned doll that sat on the table. Fairy Dust had spent most of the day cleaning and rearranging the new home of the mother-daughter pair, but earlier in the day she had went to the local shop which sold the collectable dolls known as ‘Equestrian Girls’, her daughters favorite. She was afraid they didn’t sell them in the new town but to her surprise a collectibles shop had a larger array of the dolls than in Cloudsdale. She picked up a Purple maned doll that she knew Pixie had her eye on, and hoped that however difficult her first day was that the new doll would at least cheer her up.

But now it was getting later, any rational explanation she was able to conceive as to why her daughter still wasn’t home just didn’t add up. She’d always come straight home after a long day at school, and although she’d usually be upset after another rough day, she began to worry that something worse had happened.

Fairy Dust made her way over to the closet and grabbed her coat, she decided to go looking for her daughter, and only hoped nothing bad had happened to her.

However before she was able to get her coat on, the front door opened and her daughter burst thought with as much energy as a certain pink pastry chef.

“Mom, mom you won’t believe what happened today!” She announced.

“Pixie Dust are okay, what happened dear?” Her mother responded, still worried something was wrong.

Pixie Dust took a deep breath before starting. “ImadeNewFriendsAndIBecameAnOfficialCutieMarkCursaderAndWeHadSoMuchFunAndIDidntGetMyCutieMarkButWeCameSoCloseAndI…”

“Woah, slow down sweetie you’re talking like the crazy pink pastry chef I met today.” Her mother admitted.

“I met these three fillies, they don’t have their Cutie Marks either.” Pixie Dust said.

“Oh really and they nice to you?” Her mother asked.

“They were super nice, they spent the whole day showing me around their secret clubhouse and trying to get their Cutie Marks with me. And at the end of the day they made me an official member of their club.” Pixie Dust told her mother.

“Wo…really?! You made new friends. I’m so happy for you, so your first day went well?”

“It was amazing mom, thank you so much for moving us here, all the ponies here are so nice and friendly, and you were right, nopony cares that I can’t fly.”
Pixie Dust moved her attention to the new doll that sat on the table.
“Is that the Moondancer doll I’ve been looking for?”

Fairy Dust barely remembered the doll she was so excited to give her daughter. “Oh, right. Yea I found a shop in town that sells your favorite ‘Equestria Girl’ dolls and I knew how much you wanted Moondancer.”

“Oh mom thank you so much, I’ve wanted her for so long!” Pixie Dust admitted.

“Oh Sweetie I’m just so happy you had a great day, and if you’d like we can go to the shop tomorrow and you can pick out a few more.” Fairy Dust told her daughter.

“Wow really mom, thank you, thank you, you are the best mom in world, and this has been the best day ever!” Pixie Dust said.

“I um, sure sweetie, now I see how excited you are, why don’t you run upstairs and play with Moondancer, and we’ll talk about your friends a little later.” Fairy Dust said.

“Ok mom, thank you so much.” Pixie said before cheerfully running up the stairs to play with her newest doll.

Fairy Dust sat at the table and stared out the window completely speechless. Her daughter’s words still bouncing around in her head. ‘This has been the best day ever’ She kept thinking about the words her daughter had just said. She looked over at the Picture of them hanging on the wall, that she’d just hung up, as tears began to roll down the side of her cheek.
