When I turned 3 Hugo was getting me ready for my first day of preschool. He got a lunchbox with Tulio's puppet form. I didn't know they were puppets at that time because I was a toddler.

"Ok Luna, are you ready for you're first day of preschool?" Asked Hugo.

"Yes. I'm ready." I Said.

"Alright then. Let's go." Said Hugo.

"See you later Luna." Said Tulio.

"Bye dad." I said.

Hugo and I walked over to Freddy's bike and he gave us a ride.

"So this is Luna's preschool. What a site." Said Freddy.

"Thanks for the ride Freddy." I said.

"No problem Luna. Good luck on your first day." Said Freddy as he rode away on his bike.

"Ok Luna. Let's go in." Said Hugo.

As we went in we were greeted by my teacher Mr. Bodoque A.K.A. Juan Carlos's uncle.

"Hello Luna." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Hi." I said.

"Ok Luna. I got to go to work. Have a great first day." Said Hugo.

"Bye Hugo." I said.

"This is one strange lunchbox you have here." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Uh... What?" I asked.

"I've seen this guy before." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Where?" I asked.

"Nowhere important." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Oh." I said.

"Just take a seat." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Ok?" I said confused.

Something was suspicious with Mr. Bodoque but I couldn't seem to put my finger on it. I sat in a chair next to another girl named Esmerelda.

"Hello. I'm Esmerelda." Said Esmerelda.

"I'm Luna." I said.

"What's your family like?" Asked Esmerelda.

"Crazy." I said.

"Mine too." Said Esmerelda.

Throughout the day we played and got to know each other. At lunch Mr. Bodoque was staring at my lunchbox very angrily.

"Stupid Tulio. Stupid nephew." Said Mr. Bodoque to himself.

"Uh Mr. Bodoque?" I asked.

"Oh, lunch time already?" Asked Mr. Bodoque.

"Yes." Said Esmerelda.

"Sorry. Here's you're lunchbox Luna." Said Mr. Bodoque.

"Thanks. I guess." I said.

Esmerelda and I went to the lunchroom to discuss the issue.

"What's the deal with Mr. Bodoque hating you're lunchbox? Asked Esmerelda.

"I have no idea. Maybe one day he'll learn to like it." I said.

"Wanna see the puppets after school?" Asked Esmerelda.

"What puppets?" I Asked.

"I'll take you there." Said Esmerelda.

"Ok." I said.
