Tumi and Neo are in the center of the group, laughing as they jump in sync. "I bet we can set a new record today!" Tumi exclaims, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Let's do it, Tumi!" Neo replies, grinning widely.
Amina, the new student, looks around the room, her gaze lingering on Tumi and Neo. "Hi, I'm Amina," she says softly. Neo smiles at her warmly, while Tumi feels a pang of jealousy as Neo turns to [@ch_3]Amina[/@ch_3_d], "Would you like to join us for lunch?"[/@ch_2_d]
"I guess they don't need me anymore," Tumi thinks, stirring her soup absentmindedly. The room feels colder without her friend's laughter beside her, and she finds herself missing the familiar comfort of their companionship.
"I just wish I had someone to celebrate with," Amina confides to a classmate, her voice tinged with sadness. Tumi pauses, realizing that despite her own feelings, Amina is alone.
"A surprise party... that's what I'll do," Tumi decides, her determination growing. She knows she must make amends and reach out to Amina, showing her that she is welcome and valued.
