Bella

Working the graveyard shift at an old toy store is lonely, but at midnight, it becomes a world of its own. When the clock strikes twelve, a particular Barbie doll, a porcelain-faced princess in a glittering pink gown, opens her door of her display case. She's not just a doll; she's a quiet companion with a tinkling laugh, and the store becomes her playground. Together, we inhabit a secret world of whispered secrets and playful games, a magical space unseen by the light of day. For a few enchanted hours, a forgotten toy store becomes the most real place on earth, and a plastic doll becomes the truest playmate I've ever known.
