When Scorpio Boy Met Cancer Girl

Hi, I'm Scorpio Boy! Today was super special because while playing at Moonlight Park, I saw someone new. She was making awesome sandcastles and giggling like the soft waves on the beach. I wondered who she was.

Scorpio boy introduces himself; sees Cancer girl at park.

I peeked over my comic book; her smile was like sunshine! I felt braver, so I walked over, holding my favorite red kite. She peeked up and her eyes sparkled like stars. 'Hi, I'm Cancer Girl!' she said with a big smile.

Scorpio boy approaches Cancer girl; they share smiles.

We talked about our favorite things. I love mysteries, and she loves stories about mermaids. She showed me her charm bracelet. It had a little crab and many shiny stones. 'It's magical,' she whispered. I believed her.

Sharing favorite things; Cancer girl shows her charm bracelet.

I dared to ask Cancer Girl if she wanted to fly my kite with me. She nodded and we ran across the field. The kite soared high, like our laughter. 'You're good at this!' she beamed, her cheeks rosy like apple candy.

They fly the kite together; bonding over fun activity.

Then, a puppy came dashing by, making us stumble and fall on the soft grass. We giggled as the puppy tickled us with little licks. The puppy had a collar that read 'Lucky'. 'That's a great name,' she chuckled.

A playful puppy joins them; they fall and laugh together.

After the puppy had scampered away, we decided to get juice at the park café. We sat under a big tree and shared stories. Cancer Girl liked my jokes, even though I was a bit shy telling them.

They get juice, sit under a tree, and share stories and jokes.

It was getting dark, and we saw the first star appear. 'We should make a wish,' Cancer Girl said. We closed our eyes, and I wished that maybe, just maybe, I had just met my new best friend.

Making a wish upon the first star at dusk; possible new friendship.
