The Phone and the Quiet Room

Mia sits on her bed and looks at her phone.

She has many friends online, but the room is very quiet.

Every night, she reads their happy photos for an hour.

They are at parties, and she is alone at home.

One day, her phone breaks, so she cannot use it.

At first, Mia feels sad and lost.

Then she hears a bird outside her window.

She goes to the park and meets a girl with a red ball.

They play together and talk for a long time.

Mia learns something important: real friends are not only on a screen.
