INT. SCHOOL CAFETERIA - DAY Jane, Sam, Aaron, and Molly-Rose sit around a table in the school cafeteria, eating their lunches. JANE So, guys, what's the latest gossip? SAM (laughs) You know we don't do gossip, Jane. AARON (nervously) Actually, there is something I wanted to share with you all. Jane and Sam exchange curious glances. JANE (smirking) Ooh, spill the tea, Aaron! What's going on? MOLLY-ROSE (teasingly) Yeah, don't leave us hanging! Aaron shifts uncomfortably in his seat, blushing slightly. AARON Okay, fine. But promise you won't tease me too much? JANE We promise, Aaron. Now spill! Aaron takes a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. AARON Well, remember that student from our social studies class who moved here from Thailand last month? SAM Oh, yeah! The one who sits next to you, right? AARON (nods) Exactly. Her name is Napat, and I can't help but develop a crush on her. Jane and Sam exchange delighted smiles while Molly-Rose looks intrigued. JANE (supportive) That's great, Aaron! Crushes are exciting. SAM (teasingly) What's she like, Aaron? Tell us everything! Aaron's face lights up as he describes Napat. AARON She's incredibly smart, funny, and her smile... it just brightens up my day. We've been talking a lot and have a lot in common. SAM (coyly) Common interests, huh? Like what? Aaron chuckles, feeling more comfortable now. AARON Well, we both love manga and Thai traditional music. We've even exchanged manga recommendations. JANE (smiling) Sounds like the start of a beautiful friendship, Aaron. MOLLY-ROSE (teasingly) Or maybe more than that! Who knows? Aaron blushes even more, but this time he doesn't seem bothered by it. AARON (laughs) Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Mol. We're taking it slow, but I'm excited to see where things go. SAM (excitedly) We're here to support you every step of the way, Aaron. Just keep being yourself! Jane and Molly-Rose nod in agreement, their faces filled with genuine warmth. JANE Absolutely, Aaron. Love knows no boundaries, and we're proud of you for being open to it. AARON Thank you, guys. I'm glad I have all of you to share these feelings with. They all smile and clink their lunch trays together, celebrating Aaron's newfound crush and the bond they share. FADE OUT.
