Today is the day, we’re going to explore and we’re going to find one. I just know it. Before you say anything about them not being real, I am seven, so I know that’s what you are supposed to say. You’re a grown-up. Nick and I know better.
We’re going for a walk, in the woods behind his house, and we’re going to go to the place where the fairy circle is.
“Ready?”
“Always!”
We sit quietly and wait. And wait some more. It’s cold and we’re huddled close. Leaves rustle, a twig snaps, and then it’s there.
The unicorn!
