Building trust in friendship.

Maya and Sophie had been best friends since kindergarten, sharing everything from laughter to secrets. Their special spot, the "Trust Tree," was where they talked about anything and everything. When Maya confessed her fear of swimming to Sophie, she trusted her friend to keep it a secret. But the next day, Maya found out Sophie had shared it with others. Hurt, Maya avoided the tree, and Sophie regretted breaking her trust. With a small sapling as an apology, Sophie showed Maya that trust, like a tree, takes time to grow and heal. Together, they nurtured their friendship back to life.
