Scene 1: The Schoolyard, Morning

Narrator:
It was a chilly autumn morning, and the schoolyard was alive with the chatter of
children. Most gathered in tight groups, laughing and sharing stories, but one girl
stood alone near the edge of the yard—Wanda Petronski. She adjusted her simple,
faded blue dress and glanced at the other kids.

(Maddie and Peggy are standing together, whispering. Cecile stands nearby,
listening in.)

Peggy:
(Playfully, but with an edge)
Hey, Maddie, do you think Wanda will say it again today?

Maddie:
(Quietly, looking uncomfortable)
Maybe we should just leave her alone today, Peggy.

Peggy:
(Shrugs)
Oh, come on. It’s just a joke. She doesn’t mind.

Cecile:
(Leaning in)
What doesn’t she mind?

Peggy:
(Grinning)
Wanda’s always going on about her hundred dresses. I mean, look at her—she only
ever wears that same blue one.

Narrator:
Wanda had overheard them. She didn’t say anything, but her hands clutched the strap
of her schoolbag just a little tighter.

(Wanda walks past them, heading inside.)

Scene 2: The Classroom, Later That Morning

Narrator:
In Room 13, the students sat in rows as Miss Mason began the lesson. Wanda took her
usual seat in the far corner, where no one paid much attention to her—except when
Peggy started asking questions.

Peggy:
(Turning in her seat to look at Wanda)
Hey, Wanda! So, how many dresses did you say you have again?

Wanda:
(Looking down, speaking softly)
A hundred.

Cecile:
(Surprised)
A hundred? Really?

Peggy:
(Feigning amazement)
Wow, a hundred dresses! What colors?

Wanda:
(All in one breath, trying to sound confident)
All colors. Velvet and silk and lace.

Maddie:
(Looking at Peggy, whispering)
Maybe we should stop, Peggy.

Peggy:
(Shrugging)
It’s just a game, Maddie.

Narrator:
But it wasn’t a game to Wanda. As the other students giggled, her face grew red,
and her eyes remained fixed on her desk.

Scene 3: After School, Walking Home

Narrator:
The day ended, and students streamed out of the building. Maddie and Peggy walked
together, their laughter echoing down the street.

Maddie:
(Hesitant)
Peggy, do you think Wanda really has those dresses?

Peggy:
(Laughing)
Of course not! It’s just something she says. Besides, it’s not like she cares what
we think.

Narrator:
But Maddie wasn’t so sure. As they passed the Petronski house—a small, run-down
building at the edge of town—she felt a twinge of guilt. She wondered if maybe,
just maybe, Wanda cared more than she let on.

(Wanda is visible through the window, sitting at a small table, sketching quietly.)

Narrator:
Wanda didn’t need a hundred dresses in her closet. She carried them in her
imagination, a world where no one laughed at her name or her clothes.
