Mello was excited but nervous. It was his first day at a new school, and he hoped to make friends. As he walked into the classroom, he noticed something right away—he was the only Black student. The other kids glanced at him but didn’t say anything. Mello took a deep breath and sat quietly. He wasn’t sure if anyone would talk to him, but he knew he had to try. At recess, Mello saw a group of kids playing soccer. He loved soccer, but he was unsure if they’d let him join. Gathering his courage, he walked over and asked, “Can I play too?” The kids exchanged glances. “Where are you from?” asked Tristan. “I’m from a different school,” Mello replied. “But I love soccer, just like you.” Skylar looked at him and said, “We’ve never had a friend like you before.” Mello smiled and said, “That’s okay! I’ve never had friends like you either. We can learn from each other.” There was a pause, then Tristan passed him the ball. “Sure! Let’s play!” As they played, Mello felt his nervousness fade. He dribbled, passed, and even scored! The kids were laughing and playing together, and Mello realized it didn’t matter that he looked different—what mattered was that they were having fun. After the game, Skylar told Mello, “You’re really good! I’m glad you played with us.” Later, back in class, the teacher noticed Mello looking unsure. She walked over and said, “If you ever need help or want to talk, I’m here for you.” Mello smiled, feeling grateful to have a trusted adult in the classroom. The next day, the teacher led a discussion about kindness and making everyone feel welcome. Tristan suggested, “We could ask more questions to get to know new students.” Skylar added, “We can learn from each other’s differences.” Mello realized that being different wasn’t something to hide—it made him special. His new friends saw that their differences made them stronger together. In the end, Mello knew that being unique wasn’t just okay—it was beautiful.

Noah sat on his grandparents' front porch, feeling the weight of the emptiness beside him where his Grandma used to sit. As the sun set, casting warm colors over the yard, the sadness grew in Noah's chest. His Grandma's absence felt like a missing piece of his heart had gone with her. He sat quietly, listening to the sounds of the evening, trying to push away his sadness. Soon, his Grandad joined him, sitting beside Noah and gently patting his shoulder. Noah confessed that he missed his Grandma deeply, feeling as if she had taken a special part of him when she passed away. His Grandad, who also missed her, suggested they try something to ease their feelings. He proposed they take deep breaths together, which could help lighten their hearts, even if only for a moment. Reluctantly, Noah agreed, and as they breathed deeply together, Noah began to feel a little lighter, as if the weight in his chest had lessened. His Grandad explained that it’s important to feel sadness but also be kind to oneself and allow those feelings to pass. Noah expressed his fear that letting go of the sadness might mean forgetting his Grandma. Grandad reassured him that it was okay to feel sad, but it was also okay to feel joy when remembering the happy times with her. As Noah recalled fond memories of his Grandma, a warm feeling began to fill his heart, softening the emptiness. Grandad then shared that his Grandma’s love was still present, much like the stars in the sky—though we can't always see them, they continue to shine. Noah looked up at the stars, noticing one that seemed to shine brighter than the others. He imagined that star represented his Grandma’s enduring love. Grandad explained that when someone we love passes, they become like the stars: always present, even when we can’t see them. Noah realized that, although he couldn’t see his Grandma anymore, her love was still with him, in his heart and memories. As Noah breathed deeply, he felt a little more at peace,

Paty enters a very old house, abandoned for centuries and hidden in an old, deep forest. Everything was covered in darkness yet she could still see, as if her eyes were so used to it. Or rather, it was maybe that she knew that place so well that she didn’t need to see at all. Paty heard constant buzzing. There was a hive of bees following her everywhere and she wished so strongly it would stop. Paty covered her ears and shut her eyes hoping the bees would go away. Paty turned towards big, dirty window in front of her and pulled away the curtain covering it. It was heavy and full of dust and somehow it required a lot of physical strength to move it aside so she could get some view of the outside.
