“Who was this strange girl? And what was she talking about? “I think you’re mistaking me for someone else,” Samantha said, trying to be polite. “No.” The girl shook her head and smiled. “You’re Samantha, Tracy’s,” she paused, “imaginary friend.” Did she just say imaginary friend? Sam stopped swinging. She wasn’t in the mood for practical jokes. “Listen, I don’t know what kind of prank you’re trying to pull, but I have to go get Tracy.” Sam hopped off the swing and started walking away. “It’s no prank, Samantha. You’re an imaginary friend. My name’s Jessica, and I’m here to take you to the Land of Imagination until you’re needed by another child,” Jessica called after her. Sam stopped. She turned back to Jessica, not knowing if she should feel sorry for this girl or be angry with her. All she”

“Sam knew she couldn't stay here forever. She couldn't really be happy like this. So she pictured Tracy's face in her mind to give her strength, and she walked over to the swings. They weren't normal swings. They weren't attached to anything. The seats just hung there in the air as if by magic. Sam sat down next to a girl she'd seen before. "Hi," Sam said. "Hi. I'm Tasha. You're new, right?" "Yeah. I've only had one… charge." The word was still difficult to say. "Ah, I remember what that was like." Tasha smiled and Sam could see she was remembering something. "For me it was Emily. She was the youngest of five kids, and the only girl. That's why she needed me. We had tea parties and pajama parties. We painted each other's toenails. I never thought I'd get over losing her. I came here and watched the others get called off by new friends. And before I knew it, I wanted the same to thing to happen to me. I wanted to have what I had with Emily again." "Did you get it?" Sam asked. Tasha shook her head. "No. Every charge is different. They need us for different reasons so the relationship is never really the same. And of course, your first charge is always special since that's the friend who created you.”

“Samantha watched Tracy biking through the park with her new friends. She was happy for Tracy who had just recently come out of her shell and started hanging out with some girls from school. But Samantha missed Tracy. They’d been best friends for as along as Samantha could remember. And now, Tracy barely had time for Sam. “You did a great job with her,” said a brown-haired girl on the swing next to Sam. Sam jumped. The swing had been empty a minute ago. Where had the girl come from?”

“just as much as she helped you. It was an even trade. She’ll live a happy life with lots of friends because of you.” Sam still wanted to thank Tracy in some way, but she guessed she’d have to settle”

“Jessica’s expression was completely serious. “When’s your birthday?” It was a simple question, and it should have been easy to answer. But Sam didn't know what to say. When was her birthday? She could remember Tracy’s birthday parties each year, but she’d never had one herself. How old was she? She assumed she was the same age as Tracy. Jessica gave Sam a sympathetic smile. “You don’t know, do you?” “I—” Sam couldn’t answer. It didn’t make sense. How could she not know”
Kelly Hashway, The Imaginary Friend
“Jessica nodded. "I have to stay until you are ready to move on. I was assigned to you. I can hear the call of a child, but I have to make her wait.”
