Although I knew I wasn’t great at skiing, I couldn’t help noticing the group of people gathered on the slope for a snowball fight. It looked fun, so I suggested, “How about we join them for a snowball fight?”

Christopher probably thought my idea was childish. He wrinkled his nose in distaste. “You go ahead. I’ll stay here.”

I sighed and decided to go alone.

I eyed them warily, ready to walk away, but one of them stopped me. “Come join us! It’s way more fun than being alone.”

Seeing the friendly look in his eyes, I thought, why not? I was bored, and it would be better than being by myself. So, I agreed to join them.
