Building Trusts.

[Melody Renson]

Melody smiled thinly "Thanks, yeah I know" she said quietly, looking down.
"Well, I'm staying well clear of boys for a long time" she said resolutely.
The weight that had been pressing down on her for a year suddenly seemed to have been lifted. Telling Sam was the best thing she'd done in a long time. She smiled at him shyly. Her facial muscles stretched, and she realised how long it had been since she'd smiled.
"Thanks" she said again, softly.

 

[Sam Moore]

Sam smiled back at Melody, knowing that he had made a friend for life. He was glad that she was smiling rather than frowning as, frowning requires 43 muscles whereas a smile just takes 15. He had found this out while reading some many books in his library at home.

"Anytime" he replied with a crooked smile "Shall we go for a walk outside or something?" he asked thinking that some fresh air would be good for them both.
