“Hey! Where did you get that doll?” Caitlyn said.

“I…I…found it here outside…” the girl said.

“Well, give it back, it’s mine!” Caitlyn said, grabbing it from her.

“I’m so sorry. I didn’t know it was yours. I never had a toy before.” The girl said, looking down.

Caitlyn saw the look on her face and remembered that she had a lot of toys, but this girl had nothing.

“I never had a friend before, what’s your name?” Caitlyn asked.

“I’m Sue.” She said smiling.

“Here, sue. You can have it, I have more,” Caitlyn said, giving her the doll.

“No! I can’t take your doll.” Sue said, surprised.

“Yes, you can, I want you to have it.”

“Thank you so much, my first doll.” Sue said, hugging the doll.

“Do you wanna come inside to play?” Caitlyn asked.

“I’d love to,” Sue said.

The two girls played for hours, filled with laughter and happiness. Caitlyn had gained a new friend and Sue had gained a doll and a friend.
