INT. JANE'S BEDROOM - NIGHT Jane, a 14-year-old girl with curly hair and glasses, is sitting on her bed, scrolling through her phone. She hears a knock on her bedroom door. JANE Come in! Aaron, a 14-year-old boy with shaggy hair and a skateboard in hand, enters the room. AARON Hey, Jane. What's up? JANE Not much, just browsing through some memes. What about you? AARON Oh, I wanted to ask you something. Do you know my full Malaysian name? Jane looks slightly confused but intrigued. JANE Hmm, I don't think I do. But why do you ask? AARON You know how my last name is Ling, right? Well, that's just a shorter version. My full name is Aaron Leng Ling-Ming. Jane's eyes widen in surprise. JANE Wow, that's a beautiful name! But why haven't you told anyone before? Aaron shrugs his shoulders. AARON I guess it never came up, and everyone just knows me as Aaron Ling. It's never bothered me; I've just always preferred using my shorter name. Jane smiles warmly. JANE Well, Aaron Leng Ling-Ming, I think it's a fantastic name. It's unique and has a nice ring to it. From now on, I'm going to make sure everyone knows your full name. Aaron looks at her skeptically. AARON Really? You think anyone would care? JANE Of course! Your name is a part of who you are. Embracing your heritage is something to be proud of. Plus, it reminds us all that we come from different backgrounds, and that's beautiful. Aaron's skepticism fades as he realizes Jane's genuine support. AARON Thanks, Jane. I appreciate it. Maybe it's about time I started using my full name too. They share a warm smile. JANE I'm glad I found out your full name. It's an honor to be friends with someone as awesome as Aaron Leng Ling-Ming. Aaron chuckles. AARON The same goes for you, Jane Smith! You're pretty awesome yourself. They both laugh, their friendship growing even stronger with this newfound understanding. FADE OUT.
