A wave of well-being washed over Sarah when she heard Mr. Ito talking about a fence. She relished the thought of helping him, of sharing in the creation of something new and useful. She found herself smiling, her heart feeling light and buoyant.

She dashed over to him, her voice filled with delight. "That's fantastic!" she announced, her eyes sparkling. "Let me help you! I can bring lunch, and I'm good with a hammer."

They worked together, side-by-side, in comfortable silence, punctuated by occasional bursts of laughter. The scent of fresh wood and the warmth of the sun created a sense of harmony. The joy she felt was palpable, blossoming within her chest.
