Summary
Emily and Heidi are best friends. We first met them in a story called Fear (about a phobia of dogs). In this story, they are both on a school trip to sunny Greek island of Crete. Heidi studies ancient Greek. Emily is just along for the trip - and yet Emily seems to receive all the teacher's praise for her knowledge of mythology. Heidi starts to feel an unfamiliar emotion. She's not sure what it is, but it threatens their friendship. Read by Jana. Written by Jana and Bertie. Dedicated to Julia in Romania who supports Storynory.
