*Age 10* (Liz P.O.V)
I hate recess....I have no friends at all so I have nobody to play with. I usually spend my time kicking around the wood chips. Today was different. There was a new kid who just started today. He was sitting on the swing picking at his fingers. I walk over to him and sit on the swing next to him. He looks over at me, but quickly looks away.
"Hi...my name is Liz!" I said happily. I haven't talked to anyone besides my teachers until now.
"My name is Mark!" He said kindly. I studied his face. He had on a pair of rectangle glasses and had short dark brown hair. He put out his hand to shake, which I gladly excepted. May I actually have a friend?!
