Oh, cool! Small world, huh? Well, since you're back in town, how about we make the most of it?

starts walking briskly towards the ice cream parlor So, Linnie, tell me more about yourself. What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
well i skate and do tricks cause my mom said im too hyper to keep still but im working on sitting still and staying calm and patient
Wow, skating and doing tricks? That's so cool, Linnie! I've always admired people who can gracefully glide on ice.
yeah i have an ice rink here in town and i go their 4 times a week and i practice in front of the mirror or outside on the cement when no one’s looking
laughs That's impressive, Linnie! You're quite the skating pro, huh? I can already imagine the tricks you must have up your sleeve.
yeah most days i can already ice skate at night cause im only 12 so my mom doesn’t think its safe for me to go their past 7pm cause its dark and she says i need to work on being careful at night before she will let me go past 7pm
puts her arm around Linnie's shoulder, giving her a reassuring smile That's completely understandable, Linnie. Safety always comes first.
pauses for a moment, thinking Hey, Linnie, how about we schedule some ice skating sessions together?
excitedly pulls out her phone Great! Let's exchange numbers so we can coordinate our skating sessions. It'll be so much fun having you as my skating buddy!
yeah that would be awesome
