“Hey, want to share my apple?” Max asked a girl nearby, who looked just as shy.

“Sure!” she replied, her eyes twinkling, and they began to chat. Her name was Elara, and she loved drawing fantastical creatures.

Soon, another boy, Leo, joined them. He was an expert at building towering block castles and told them about his latest creation.

As they shared their lunch, Max discovered kids have all kinds of stories. He learned that everyone feels a bit nervous at first.

They talked about their favorite colors, silly jokes, and even the wobbly tooth Max had been hiding. Elara giggled, and Leo shared a story about his own lost tooth.

The cafeteria, which had seemed so big and scary, now felt warm and friendly, filled with the sound of new friendships blooming.
