Cielo picked them up in the sky-car from Sunshine’s.  ‘‘Did you get everything you wanted?’’ he said.
        ‘‘Oh yes!’’ said Destiny.
        ‘‘I am pleased’’ he said.
        Destiny hoped he would remain so when he saw the credit card bill.  She smiled to herself thinking ‘oh well, she did the banking, she could always slyly hide it, he would never know!’
        They had a long month ahead of them.  The work had been planned and scheduled to build Speranza his home.  The fairy builders came in first to make sure that the olive tree would remain strong.  It had to be fully damp-proofed so that it would not let any water in when the rain came again.
        Olive decided that whilst all this was going on, she would have a word at the school where she taught music to see if there were any vacancies for Speranza.  After all he was a very experienced teacher and they could use his skills, he was a teacher of the arts.  He could play the guitar but, history was his passion.  Olive sold Speranza’s talents to the school board and managed to swing an interview for him the very next week.  She knew he would need money to pay the bills when his new home was ready.  She didn’t think it would all happen so quickly.  Cielo gave him a suit to wear.  Destiny ordered some teeth whitener off the internet.
        ‘We had better get them teeth whitened pronto’ she thought.  Either that or he wouldn’t be able to smile without feeling conscious!
        The teeth whitener arrived.  Speranza was a bit apprehensive.  The instructions said he would have to dip the moulds in hot water and mould them around his teeth whilst they were soft.  He was to fill them with the foaming stuff and put them in his mouth for three hours a day. 
        ‘Quite strange but, worth it if it worked’ he thought to himself. 
        He even felt he had a mouthful of yellow tomb-stones and they weren’t exactly fetching!  Destiny, Olive and Willow said they would all join him in the teeth whitening process just to support him.  It would all be rather fun.  Hopefully they could get through it without laughing too much.  Destiny put the plastic tooth coverings in hot water so they melted a little.  She said to Speranza ‘‘open your mouth wide so I can put them in and then close so they have time to mould themselves around your teeth.’’
        Speranza smiled to himself.  These fairies are so wacky and full of life but, he did as he was told.  They all did the same with their moulds and before any time at all they were all bleaching their teeth.  Destiny gave Speranza a little more than anyone else as his teeth needed the most work as they were so yellow and dull.  It was a hoot as foam started to come out of Speranza’s mouth.  Destiny had told him not to swallow it.  She gave him a tissue to wipe away the excess.  Everyone was trying not to laugh.
        ‘It had better be worth it’ thought Speranza to himself.  It was all so hilarious, they continued this process for a week to get ready for his interview.  In the end, everyone had sparkling white teeth including Speranza.
        ‘Unbelievable!’ he thought.  His teeth were nearly as white as the driven snow not that they got any down in southern Italy where they all lived but, he had seen pictures on the fairy news channel.
        When Speranza now smiled, he literally glowed in the dark.  Let’s say you wouldn’t miss him!
        The teeth from the tooth Fairy were being delivered the very next day.  Woody had all the legs for the furniture lined up.  Several fairies had volunteered to paint them which meant that everything was done so much quicker.
        ‘Many hands make lighter work’ Speranza thought to himself ‘there are so many kind and giving fairies out there in this world, lots of fairies have so much good in their hearts.’
        Olive wanted to make Speranza’s home totally unique.  She felt
