Don't worry, it'll all blow over. It'll become old news before you know it. People get bored fast with gossip, but in the mean time you could say that you have the dolls for when your little cousin comes over, so she has something to play with or that your mom hasn't given them away from when you were a kid yet, but that you don't actually play with them. Deny it if you have to. As long as you don't admit to it no one can know for sure that it is true and not just Isabella making up a rumor about you for no apparent reason. If you just ignore it though, people will think that its not true, but the more you get defensive the more people will think its true. I would just deny using them and leave it at that if someone asks you. just be like, "oh yeah, I have them, but they're for my little cousins." and leave it at that. I dont think its a big deal that you still play with them, but some teenagers or well most can be cruel. Just be relaxed and at ease and everything will blow over in a few weeks at the most.

hope that helped;
