Note: This is just a random story that was in my head for a long time and I could not decide what to do with it. So I am making a short story out of it. Hope you enjoy it.

It was the end of summer vacation and a new begining for me. My family had just moved to a small town to expand my father's business and treat my mother's illness.
Well, this place is not do new for me. My grandparents used to live here for a short period of time and I remember visiting this place once as a kid.
I was too small back then and most of my memories are a bit hazy but one thing I remember clearly is the lake that is situated just outside the town.
It's a famous tourist attraction and is visited by many in the summer. It doesn't get too hot here so many people spend their vacation here.
After going grocery shopping in the afternoon I started to explore the town. It's a very small town with very few people living here but still it is lively.
Suddenly remembering the way to the pond I started to go in that direction. There were not many people there as summer vacation was already over and most of them were elderly people or couples. But what caught my attention was a small girl sitting near a tree. She seemed to be of the same age as me and gave me a smile.
She stood up and came towards me. "Hi you moved here recently, right?" I nodded my head and shook her extended hand.
"Yes, we moved here yesterday."
"I saw a moving truck. I hope we can be friends. I will show you around the town."
I nodded my head and we started to talk about different things. She was in the same high school I was going to attend and offered to help me.
One thought that came to my mind the was 'Well, maybe this is the start of a good friendship?'
