Summary
1. John notices a new family moving into the house next door. He sees a quiet girl named Sydney, who appears different (very pale, blue eyes and blonde hair), holding a teddy bear and seeming a bit distant. 2. John, feeling shy but eager to make a new friend, waves at Sydney. She doesn’t respond much, but he decides to give her space, sensing she might be shy. 3. The next day, John approaches Sydney again, introduces himself, and asks if she wants to play. After some hesitation, Sydney agrees, and they spend the afternoon playing and getting to know each other. 4. John returns the next day with drawing paper and crayons. Sydney smiles and begins to open up more. They draw together and share stories, with John learning that Sydney is shy but enjoys drawing. Their friendship blossoms, showing that kindness and patience can help overcome differences.
