Jayla, a young girl with long braids and a purple dress, lived in sunny Florida. Despite the superstition surrounding the number 13, Jayla considered it her lucky number. One sunny day, as she was skipping down the street, Jayla stumbled upon a $13 bill on the ground. Excited by her find, she decided to use the money to buy herself a delicious ice cream cone.

As Jayla approached the ice cream shop, she noticed a black cat crossing her path. Instead of being deterred, Jayla took it as a sign of good luck. She confidently stepped into the shop and ordered her favorite flavor, chocolate chip. The shopkeeper, a kind old man, was amazed by Jayla's positive attitude and decided to give her an extra scoop, free of charge.

With her ice cream in hand, Jayla happily made her way back home. On the way, she encountered a ladder in the middle of the sidewalk. Without hesitation, Jayla walked under it, giggling at the idea of defying the superstition. As she turned the corner, she stumbled upon a broken mirror, but instead of worrying about the bad luck, Jayla simply picked up the shards and placed them in her pocket, determined to use them for a craft project later.

Once home, Jayla's luck continued to shine. She found a four-leaf clover in her backyard and a penny heads-up on the doorstep. Feeling like the luckiest girl in the world, Jayla decided to share her good fortune with her friends, treating them all to ice cream cones as well. Despite the superstitions surrounding the number 13, Jayla had proven that it was her lucky number, and she was determined to continue embracing her good fortune with a positive attitude and a joyful spirit.
