14. How I captured a fairy

        I learned some interesting things about fairies today.  The fairy was asking me all kinds of stuff about my personal life, her curiosity knows no bounds, so I decided it was only fair she answer a few questions in return.  Not that I haven’t asked before - things like whether or not there are other fairies to be found in the woods behind Madison’s house, where fairies come from, what she was doing there that night I found her, are there boy fairies, etc., etc., etc.  The fairy always puts me off whenever I want to talk about her, and again she adamantly refused to discuss anything with regards to fairies.  She loves any opportunity to talk, but only about me, and the things she sees in my room or on TV or out the window.  Questions about her or other fairies get nowhere.  She conveniently acts dumb, or withdrawn, and sometimes even turns and walks away.  She’s even laid herself down and pretended to fall instantly sleep.  I never wanted to push her and didn’t feel any great need to know those things anyway.  I’m just happy to have her with me and don’t want to make her feel uncomfortable.  I figured she’d tell me when she was ready, and apparently today she was.
