As the warm water cascaded down her skin, Lily let out a contented sigh. It was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of helping her mom with her bakery. She closed her eyes, feeling the tension melt away like the soap suds down the drain. Just as she was starting to relax, she heard a faint knock at the bathroom door. \Who could that be?\ she wondered. She didn't think anyone was home besides her and her mom. She opened one eye to peek out the shower curtain, and her heart skipped a beat. Standing in the hallway was none other than her best friend, Emma, holding a giant chocolate chip cookie. \Hey, Lily! I brought reinforcements!\ Emma called out, winking. \Your mom said it was okay to bring you a snack.\ Lily's face lit up. She loved cookies almost as much as she loved her mom's bakery. She quickly rinsed off and grabbed a towel, wrapping it around her hair. Together, the girls sat on the bathroom floor, devouring the cookie and giggling about their latest school gossip. As they chatted, Lily noticed that Emma looked a bit down. \What's wrong, Em?\ Lily asked, concern etched on her face. Emma hesitated before speaking. \I was thinking about moving away soon. My dad got a new job on the other side of town.\ Lily's heart went out to her friend. \We'll miss you so much, but we'll stay in touch, I promise!\ The girls hugged, and Lily felt grateful for the simple joys in life – like a warm shower, a delicious cookie, and a best friend to share it all with.
