Once there was a girl named Mia. Every day, she would smile at Tom, the boy she liked. "Hi, Tom! Ready for our race today?" Mia asked excitedly. Tom smiled back but seemed a little worried. "I can't race today, Mia. Lily needs me. She's not well," he replied. Mia felt a pinch in her heart, but she understood; Lily was Tom's childhood friend, and she needed help. Meanwhile, Mia dreamed of a day when Tom would see her as more than just a friend.
Days passed and Tom was still with Lily. One day, he called Mia. "I made a mistake, Mia. I....I hurt your feelings by being with Lily too much. I didn’t mean to cheat on you. I just wanted to help. I’m sorry!" Mia listened carefully. "Tom, it's okay. But I think we both need to be happy. I need to chase my own dreams now," she said softly. Tom realized that happiness should not come from being with someone who didn’t care about him. He respected Mia's decision, but in his heart, he wished for a second chance. But alas, Mia had already moved on, shining brighter than ever before.
