With my hand on the latch, I began to visualize my first tulpa. I still didn’t officially know how to create them, but I knew that they had to be based on emotion. An emotion opposite of fear.

I decided to start with happiness, and that made me think of watching Saturday morning Pokémon cartoons as a kid. Thinking of Pikachu, I imagined the little yellow creature floating around me with a happy little smile on his chubby face.

Holding onto that image, I tore out of the chicken coop and ran to my room.

I only had the courage to enter the place because Jerry was in there. After kissing his fuzzy head and feeding him, I kicked the chicken wire under the bed and grabbed my clothes.

I kept Pikachu firmly in my mind the entire time that I showered and changed into a clean Bean There, Baked That T-shirt and jeans. And as Betty gave me a ride to work, I whistled the Pokémon theme song under my breath and visualized Pikachu dancing alongside us.

If nothing else, it put me in a better mood, and when we arrived at the coffee shop, I gave Betty a cheerful wave and disappeared inside.

Once inside, I felt comfortable enough with Samantha’s presence that I temporarily set my Pikachu experiment aside. It was exhausting to concentrate that hard on something for so long.

Donning my apron, I trudged to the front room to clean tables.

The place was relatively empty, except for Reese squealing and giggling with several of her friends around a table near the Christmas tree. She kept looking over her shoulder and continually flipping her long black hair in a way that I knew meant she must be trying to catch some guy’s attention.

The guy turned out to be Jareth. He sat several tables away, chatting with Samantha.

“Perhaps you should start making yourself useful around here, Jareth,” Samantha was saying. “As it appears that you’ve moved in.”

“Physical labor isn’t my forte,” Jareth replied, cocking a brow. “Just keep sending muffins this way, dragon, whatever amount you think is worth the rent.”

Samantha glanced up and graced me with a cordial nod. Turning back to Jareth, she wiped her hands and said, “Ah yes, your babysitter has arrived. I’ll be leaving now.”

Jareth laughed as she walked away, but then the front door opened, and all signs of amusement fled from his face.

I followed his gaze.

It was Rafael, and his arm was firmly planted around Raven’s waist.
