A LITTLE STORY OF BELONGING

Zenny's Perfectly Calm Day

Early morning in the Buzzing Nook, honeycomb catching the first light. Zenny hovering in lotus position above one flat green leaf in a quiet corner. Fuzzby beside her, rubbing his hands together with enormous enthusiasm.

The Buzzing Nook wakes up slowly, if you let it. Zenny always lets it.

This morning she had a plan. She had a leaf, flat and green, in the stillest corner of the Nook. She had told Fuzzby, which was the brave part.

"Today," said Zenny, "I will be one hundred per cent calm."

"What's your best so far?" said Fuzzby.

"Sixty-one."

Fuzzby rubbed his hands together. "I'll help."
