When Jemima came home form school, she saw a girl about her age on the porch swing with a doll in her hands. "Hi."

The girl looked up at her. "Hi."

"I'm Jemima. My Mamma owns this place."

"I'm Brianna, me and my Da just moved here. He's going to be the preacher."

Jemima's eyes lit up and with a smile she exclaimed, "You're staying! You mean it?!"

Confused Brianna said, "Yes."

"Oh this is great! Are you staying here?" Brianna nodded. "Oh great, we'll have so much fun! Hey I can take you to meet the school teacher. Just let me go put down my books and we'll go on to the school. Hey Mamma!! She's staying! The little girl, Brianna said that she's staying now I'll have a friend again!"

"Jemima Honey, What about Melissa and Jesse and Michael?"

"Oh they're always together. Sometimes they forget to include me. It's not on purpose though. They're just a few years older than me is all. But Brianna and I can be best friends!"

Destiny laughed. "That's my daughter. Jemima this is Revered Sean Dennington, Brianna's father."

"Pleased to meet ya, sir. I'm going to put my books down and then I'm going to take Brianna to meet the other kids and Miss Boudreaux, our teacher, if that's ok with you, Revered Dennington."

"Yes, that's fine Lass." Sean said surprised.

Destiny shook her head in amazement. "Well that's one good thing to come out of you moving here to Dreamville. I haven't seen her this excited and happy since Rose and her family moved out to California."

"I'm glad that my little girl is making friends already."

After Jemima put her books in her room, she came back into the dinning room, "Reverend Dennington, are you going to the Valentine's Dance?"

"Well, I'm not sure."

"It'd be a great way to meet people," Destiny said.

"Well, OK. Brianna and I will be there."

"Oh great!" Jemima exclaimed, and then she ran off to introduce her new friend to their teacher and the other kids.
