Why couldn't I understand,I thought since it was my tail, I would know the answer to that problem?Sometimes I wandered if any of my friends had tails.However I had to stop worrying about other stuff.Right now I needed to think about how to get my tail to disappear,for the moment.I tried using a towel, that didn't work either!All I could think of doing is to panic."Think of something,come on,come on...."
Then I had a few solutions like,"wish for it to come off with the stone," that didn't work."Wait it out to dry," that didn't work either.Soon I was running out of ideas,but neither of them worked.Eventually I looked at the sink and thought of water."Aha!"I had an idea, a great one.Sprinkle water all over my tail,probably a very dumb idea.Instead of still thinking,I still tried it just in case.
Finally, the tail vanished, it was gone."Are you kidding me,just a little bit of water!"Now I was frustrated, I didn't expect water to work."Why me?" I must of had bad luck today.It was nearly dinner time,but I haven't even gotten my homework done yet.My homework had to be done before dinner always, I had to hurry.
Cassie, my sister knocked on the door also because of privacy.I said hang on because I was feeling lightheaded after all that work."Give me 5 more minutes!"
"Mom already has the table set up and ready for dinner," Cassie said."Fine,I'm coming out just one second." I put on my pajamas before I got out of the room.Cassie and mom were already at the dinner table waiting for me to sit down and say grace.After grace, we started to eat our dinner.Dinner was done after 20 minutes, we each had a chore.I put the leftover food in containers so we could have leftovers tomorrow.
"Wash your hands,Caterina," mom said.I ran to my room and washed my hands.Mom was putting away the dishes.Before my tail appeared, I ran for the bed.I didn't make it to the bed,so there was a loud boom!"Honey,what is going on in there,are you ok?" Mom said."I'm fine mom."My tail flopped onto the ground.This time the tail was purple!What is going on with me?My mind wandered.Soon I saw that the shell was glowing blue again.My head swallowed some information.
Why didn't I know earlier?My tail has been changing colors because of the shell when wishing too much.Now the shell was glowing purple.
