I was very, very dizzy after that huge "growth spurt". (Plus, I had never worn high heels before; it's hard to get heels when you're four inches tall. But, they looked SO cute!) I put my now enormous hand to my head and took a step back. Unfortunately, that was my first step in high heels, and it didn't turn out to well. I fell back and landed on my back, hard.
          "Ow," I groaned and rubbed my head. Then, I saw a tiny figure climb up my left shoe.
          "Hey there, sexy. Damn you look great in this outfit," Krissy said while looking me up and down. I blushed and said, "I better not look too good. I don't want to attract any humans. It's forbidden for me to fall in love with a human." She just laughed and said, "Pick me up and get off your bum. It's time to make your dream come true!" I rolled my eyes and reached toward Krissy who had climbed onto my ankle.
          "You don't mind, do you? Me picking you up, I mean."
          "Yeah, it's cool. Now get up." I placed my open palm next to Krissy and she climbed on. Next, I stood up slowly and carefully, trying very hard not to fall. Once I had completed this rather wobbly task, I stood up straight and looked at Krissy, who was still in my palm.
          "So, what now?" I asked.
          "You go out and do whatever you want, duh!" she said and rolled her eyes.
          "Oh, right. So, do I just put you down now?"
          "Yeah. Just put me by the vent and then you can go explore!" I smiled and said, "Krissy, I just want to thank you so much for making my dream come true! If there's anything I can do to repay you, please let me know right away."
          "You don't need to give me anything, honey. It's what I do. Now, go! Have fun! See you in 24 hours." I then leaned over and let her climb off my hand to the vent. She gave me a wink, waved, and hopped away into the vent. I took in a huge breath and sighed. Time to face the human world. I took a (surprisingly sturdy) step away from the vent. Then another. Then another. I kept on walking until I made it to the corner of the alley. I peaked out and for the first time, a) saw humans while being the same hight as them and b) saw what the front of the apartment complex looked like.
          There was a big top casting a shadow over over the main doors. There was a shiny sign that read "OPEN". I widened my eyes and stepped toward it in curiosity. Then, I remembered my schedule. Come on, Carrie. Keep it together. I took a breath and reached into my purse and pulled out the paper. It read:
"Carrie's Schedule for the Perfect Day in the Human World!
1. Go to the book store, you idiot!" I laughed at my awkwardness and then saw people staring. I coughed it off and felt my cheeks redden. I had already memorized the map of this town and didn't need directions to find the book store. (Which was on Lilac Street, two blocks away.) Here I go.

          About seven minutes and two blocks later, I was standing in front of a store named "Book Worm Book Shop". Finally, the moment has arrived! New books here I come! I smiled and bit my lip, walking toward the door. I pressed my hand to it and pushed.
          Inside was the most beautiful place I had ever seen. There were hundreds, no, thousands of books. I widened my eyes and let my mouth drop.
          "Hello! May I help you?" a woman  with her gray hair in a tight bun behind a counter to my left said.
          "No, thanks," I responded. I wanted this entire experience to be an adventure.
          "Okay. Oh, and we're having a sale today. All books for ten dollars including tax," I nodded calmly (I was actually screaming on the inside because I COULD BY FIVE WHOLE BOOKS)  and made my way to a sign labeled "Biographies and Autobiographies". I didn't really like biographies, but, out of curiosity, I went anyway. I made my way to the row of shelves that consisted of autobiographies and biographies. Even if I didn't like these kinds of books, I was still amazed by all of the novels. I diverted my gaze from the shelves and looked at one of the books on display.
         Then, my jaw dropped. My eyes widened to the sized of golf balls.
          "No. Freaking. Way." Right in front of me I saw a book entitled Sherlock Holmes: The Life of a Detective. Staring back at me were his beautiful green eyes. Wait, beautiful? Carrie, no! You can't-
"So, you're interested in my book?"
