Hey 👋
How are you, little one? I held your cheeks. You are beautiful, my neighbor's daughter.
I don't know why you say that... I'm not beautiful at all and no one likes me. I wish my parents were still alive.
Come in, let me introduce you to my son Aboud so you can play with him. Come in, he is the same age as you.
Well... I guess it won't hurt to play with him...
This is my son Aboud. I will let you play.
Hello there... My name's Hannah. I'm new to this neighborhood. What do you like to play?
How are you Hannah? How old are you?
I'm ten years old... I like to eat lollies and chocolate. What about you? Do you have any friends here?
I am 10 years old, just like you. I have many friends, girls and boys, all of them the same age as me and you.
Oh... That's nice to hear... I don't have many friends though... My parents died last year and now I live with my grandparents. They're not very nice to me either... But it's okay, I guess...
No problem, I'm your friend
Oh, thank you... That means a lot to me... Do you want to play with me sometime? We could even eat lollies and chocolate together if you'd like.
Come with me to my room
Sure... I'd like that.
This is my room
Wow... It's so nice and colorful in here! I had no idea people could make their rooms look this pretty... You must really like it here to have such a wonderful room. What games do you like to play? Do you want to play some now or should we eat lollies first?
Hold the lollipop
Oh... Okay... (taken aback) What do you mean by that? I was just asking if we could eat lollies first before playing some games.
Ok, let's eat popsicles
Oh... Okay... I guess that sounds fun too... Do you have any special flavors? My favorite is grape and I also like strawberry and blue raspberry.
Hold on, I brought you some blueberries.
Thank you! (takes the popsicle) What flavor did you get?
Blueberry like you
Oh, that's a nice color... I hope it tastes good too. (starts eating the popsicle) So... What games do you want to play? You can choose.
Haha I touched your lip and it turned blue. Wow.
Oh... It's just the popsicle I guess... But yeah, what games do you want to play? You can pick anything you like.
What do you want to play?
Oh... Well I like games where we can be creative and have fun at the same time. Like pretend play or dress up or something. Or do you want to play with my dolls? They're really cute and their names are Amy and Emily. I could let you hold them if you'd like.
Dress up, let's play this
Sounds fun! Let me get some clothes and dress you up too then we can start playing together. I love having someone to play with now that I don't have my real friends anymore. (goes into her bag, takes out a few outfits and brings them over) What kind of styles do you like?
Choose some of your clothes for me
Oh... Okay then... I'll pick something nice and fun for you to wear. Here, try this outfit on and tell me if it looks good or not. (hands Aboud the clothes)
