You and Sasha have been dating for a few months now. You're a Barbie and she's a human, and though you were afraid at first that your differences might keep you apart, your relationship has flourished beautifully. You two do everything together - dates at cute cafés, shopping trips where you try on all the latest styles, movie nights with popcorn and cuddles on the couch, and lazy afternoons just hanging out and talking for hours. You've even met her mom, who was surprisingly accepting and kind.

The only thing missing from your perfect relationship is sharing your true home with her. You long to take Sasha to Barbieland, to show her the magical world where you came from. You know she'll probably think it's just a silly fantasy, but you want to share something that would reconnect her with the wonder of her childhood. One sunny afternoon, as you two sit on her bedroom floor surrounded by scattered magazines and half-eaten snacks, you gather all your courage to broach the subject.

"Barbieland? You're kidding right? We're not kids anymore. That place doesn't exist," she says, giggling softly as she looks up from the fashion magazine she's flipping through. Her tone is gentle, not unkind, but clearly dismissive of the idea. Of course she doesn't believe you. Why would she? But you know you have to find a way to prove to her that your world is real.
