´Amma,µ Ila began one afternoon
In her rehearsed, oh-so-cute tone
´ Can I have a pet of my own,
I do get bored all aloneµ
Before Amma could even start
Ila went on and on with her part
´«.I wouldn·t disturb you anymore,
Oh, there·ll be so much to explore!µ

Finally, Amma said with a stern stare-
´ And who do you suppose will take care
when you·re at school or here and there?
Its best to ask your father , if you dareµ

´Oh No!µ Ila slumped with stress
´Theres a fat chance of father saying ¶yes·µ
Back in her room, she began to cry
´No pets ever, how ever hard I try!µ
Ila·s sobs filled up the room
She noticed not in her gloom
That along came a teeny spider
And hung mid-air right beside her

Orbie·s home had always been here
He never saw her shed so much tears
¶She·s always playing around non-stop·
Now he must somehow cheer her up!

When Ila could cry no more
She rose up from the floor
Midway, she saw something hover-
Was that a spider giving her a flower!

Ila gave this some thought
´Now I know this is what
fairytales are meant to be!µ
She clapped so hard- it scared Orbie
![Page 8: Ila Finds a New Pet - Shruti Jain](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021218/577d29301a28ab4e1ea627a8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Seeing Ila jump with joy
Orbie knew it was worth the try.
But Ila had something else in mind
For her, this was a fairytale in kind.
She thought it was her Fairy Godmother
(Just had to be no other)
Who sent her an enchanted pet
One that could talk too, you bet!

´Dear, dear look at me,
I am as excited as can be!
My name is Ila, what is yours?
You must have a name for sureµ
Ummm...We don tspeak the samelanguage

As Ila waited for magic to unfold
Orbie wondered what was on hold
What was it that she had said?
What exactly was expected?
What do I do?

´Maybe he needs some kind of trigger-
A short spell or a charm much bigger?
Umm.. ¶Spiiiider- Lighterrr·«
Ok.
Umm.. ¶Webber Teller·«..µ
Uh oh!

Ila·s string of spells failed to evoke
Whatever it was that she had hoped
She even tried ¶Fairy breath· in vain
All of a sudden she felt quite insane
![Page 13: Ila Finds a New Pet - Shruti Jain](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021218/577d29301a28ab4e1ea627a8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

All the wishful thinking made Ila angry
I can eat a train now, I am so hungry
Orbie saw Ila was now fizzing out
So he waved a keep going flag about
![Page 14: Ila Finds a New Pet - Shruti Jain](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022021218/577d29301a28ab4e1ea627a8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Orbie spun pretty webs in a quick drill
Ila was astounded with such skill
When he was done with his swirls
All Ila thought of, was, yummy Jalebi curls

´He also gobbles up unwanted insects
Needs no caring for, and yet he protectsµ
Feeling elated, she switched on the light
Everything now seemed cheery and bright
´Well, he·s quite friendly for a start
And his silk webs are quite an artµ

´Oh this is going to be so cool
He can even come to my school
We can play hop-scotch or even ball
I found a pet friend after all!µ
