• Chapter 9 •
Fiona couldn’t wait to tell everyone about her new job. Her mom didn’t answer her phone, so Fiona left a message. “I have a job! I am a dog walker and the dog is named Mayflower and I walked him for the first time tonight and even got paid for it. Ten dollars, which may not be a lot, not as much as you make for being an actress, but it’s something and a job is a job, so I can help out now that I have a job in case you lose yours. Call me back so I can also tell you about the chicken boy, who I’ve seen twice already and talked to once even though he isn’t really friendly and he put a spell on—”
Her mom’s phone cut Fiona off with a beep.
Talking about her new dog-walking job, even to her mom’s answering machine, made her feel important. And taller even. Maybe that was how you knew you were a grown-up, she thought. You actually grew.
She had grown tall enough, in fact, that she now had to look down on Cleo, Milo, and Harold at school when she talked to them. “I’ve got important things to do,” she said when Cleo asked her if she wanted to practice handing out maps after school.
“Like what?”
“I’m going to walk Mayflower. It’s my job.” This made Cleo roll her eyes. And Fiona said, “That’s not a very grown-up thing to do.”
Harold put his finger in his nose and said, “Somebody thinks she’s pretty big and important today.”
