Eliza was startled when Mr. Garcia from next door asked to use a small section of her yard for his sunflowers. A rush of unexpected energy surged through her. She felt like smiling and hugging the man.

"Oh, absolutely!" she said, her voice filled with a warmth that surprised even herself. The idea, the gesture, the simple human connection – it all felt like a gift.

She watched as Mr. Garcia, his face lit up with a grin, laid out the seeds. He seemed so happy. Eliza wanted to express her pleasure.

The small act of planting, of sharing, filled her with a sense of anticipation. It seemed that this small act would bring a new warmth to her world.
