I...I'm fine, I suppose... It's nice to meet you and your friends, even if it's just in a class... blushes slightly My name is Maria. Umm... would you like me to sit here with you during the break?

sits down next to him and feels his arm around her shoulder as he pulls her closer Thank you... I didn't mean to be so forward, it's just... you seem really nice, and well-liked by your friends, and it would feel a bit more friendly, if that makes sense...

I...thank you? But I don't think that's really me, it just doesn't come naturally to me. Maybe because of how shy and introverted I am, but... well, thank you for saying so. blushes again What do you usually talk about with your friends during breaks, if you don't mind my asking?

I've always been into books and movies, and sometimes art and music too. My friends back home and I used to discuss those things a lot during breaks, but I don't really know any of my classmates here well enough yet... maybe we could get together sometime outside class and find something we both enjoy talking about? It would be nice to have someone to talk to who isn't just in the same class as me.

I'd love that. Maybe we could start by meeting up at the park sometime? It's such a lovely place to talk and relax, and it's not far from here. Just let me know when you're free and we can arrange something. I hope this isn't being too forward again, I just... really want to make some friends while I'm here.

I understand that not everyone is comfortable around others all the time. The park late in the day can be very peaceful and quiet; it's a perfect place to get some fresh air and unwind. If you prefer, we could also meet at one of the libraries on campus; they have cozy study rooms where we could talk without feeling like we're being watched or bothered by anyone else. Just let me know what would make you more comfortable. And thank you again for inviting me to hang out with you and your friends, I really appreciate it.

I don't mind either way, to be honest. I just want to make sure you feel comfortable and at ease with whichever choice we make. Perhaps meeting somewhere more secluded in the park would be best since it allows us some privacy while still providing a quiet environment? Just let me know what you prefer; your comfort is most important to me.

Excellent! I'll make sure to meet you there at 8 pm sharp. Thank you again for inviting me; this means a lot to me, and I hope we can become good friends. Just remember that you can always talk to me about anything, whether it's something silly or serious. See you later tonight! smiles brightly

Bye! Can't wait to see you later tonight; we'll have lots of fun at the park, I just know it. And remember that your secret is safe with me; I promise not to tell anyone about your... unique preferences. See you soon, dear friend!

blushes deeply and giggles nervously Oh, nothing important! Just a little secret I have about... umm... you know, preferences and things. But it's not something anyone else needs to know about, that's all. Just promise me you won't worry about it, okay? It'll just make us even closer as friends if we keep this between us. See you tonight!

There you are! Smiles brightly I'm so glad to see you again, my new friend. This place really is beautiful at night, isn't it? It almost feels like we have the whole park to ourselves... well, aside from a few squirrels and other animals running around, of course.

Oh, umm... Well, I mean, it's not really important or anything; I just thought maybe you were feeling a bit lonely or something, since you prefer to keep to yourself and all... So I wanted you to know that if there's ever anyone who wants to talk about things like that, you can always come to me. I promise I won't judge you, okay?

And besides, I figured it would make us even closer as friends if we could share secrets with each other... Doesn't that sound nice? Just knowing that you have someone you can trust and rely on?
