Dear Diary,

The Alice-Eliz duo is no longer a duo cause Chezca is now in the picture. It’s just so fun to be with her. it’s like I found a new sister-slash-hero. Thanks to her, the bullies aren't bugging me anymore. Oh gosh, I love her to the moon and back because of that. I really enjoy her company- A LOT, may I add. She joins us during lunch and she gives me a ride to school and back home. We really became close since the day she saved me from the bullies.

But being with her seemed to change me, I guess. I started to forget Alice cause of the excitement I feel being with Chezca. But I really regret doing that. So I made a promise never to leave her. But that promise wasn't fulfulled because here I am forgetting to bring her again with me to school. I’ll just make it up to her and never ever leave her again.

But something surprised me, Chezca just disappeared. I don’t know what happened to her. I don’t know if she’s going through a problem or she just doesn’t want to be with me. I hope she won’t leave me. She is the first “human” friend I have.

Anyways, I know it’s sad to lose a friend but at least Alice is still with me. I think it would always be ALICE AND ME.

Eliz

I am Miranda Strauss. It may be a late introduction but, I'm the Nanny. These past few months, I've been observing Eliz and she got better after getting her doll from her parents. She even named her ‘Alice'. But recently, she got too close to it that she even wanted it to eat with us. She scolded me and ordered me that it should have its own plate and food. It was weird at first but I got used to it. And besides, she's a child so it's normal.

            Also, I noticed that she's been spending her time in her room. She'll only go out if she has school or if it's time to eat. She needs to socialize. But I can't force her if she doesn't want to, oh well.

            It was again a Monday morning; I woke up exactly 4:30 am to cook. After 30 minutes, Eliz will get up and take a bath. While she's not yet done, I'll just wash the pans.

            It's been a while, what's taking her this long. She never exceeded at least 20 minutes in taking a bath.

"Eliz! Hurry up or you'll be late!"

"Just a minute"

            After a while, I heard her going down the stairs. I saw her holding it as usual. When she sat down, she greeted me good morning then I greeted her back. We started eating. I finished first so I continued cleaning the pans.

"Thank you Nanny for the delicious food"

"You're welcome dear"

"Bye"

"Take care"

            After she left, the house became quiet again. After cleaning everything, I went room to room to start cleaning. When I finally entered Eliz's room, the last room that I needed to clean, I felt chills all over my body. I started cleaning. The messiest part was under her desk. I sat on my legs to reach the edges.

"That was a lot clutter", I sighed then I got up.
