My name is Aqma, and I don’t think my name is cool. Why did I have to be named Aqma? Wouldn’t Leo or Max sound much better? Today is my first day of school, and I’m so nervous. What if my classmates laugh when I introduce myself? Just like the kids in my neighborhood who teased me. Mom always said, “They only teased you because they liked you.” I wasn’t so sure. They said my name sounded strange and made up silly rhymes. I chased them until they ran away, laughing. Ever since then, I wished for a cooler name. “Aqma, let’s go! It’s time for school,” Mom called. I sighed and followed her. On the way, I thought hard. Maybe I could mumble my name, or pretend I forgot it when it’s my turn. When we arrived, Mom gave me a hug and said, “You’ll do great, Aqma. Your name is perfect, just like you.” As I walked into class, lost in thought, BUMP! I ran into a girl with curly hair. “Oops! Sorry!” I said quickly. “No, it’s okay! Hey, what’s your name?” she asked, smiling. “Oh no, this is it,” I thought. “I’m Aq... Aqma,” I mumbled. “Aqma? That’s so cool!” she said brightly. “I’m Rina.” “Wait, you think Aqma is cool?” I blinked, surprised. “Of course! Aqma sounds unique and strong,” Rina replied. “We should be friends!” Before I knew it, other kids gathered around. “Aqma is a great name!” one said. I couldn’t stop smiling. I never thought anyone would like my name, let alone think it was cool. By the end of the day, I felt proud. Mom was right all along. My name is Aqma, and I think it’s VERY cool!

Next, Averi is in her Grandmother's old attic looking for toys when she comes across a chest. She opens the chest and inside is an antique guitar with whimsical and colorful engravings on it. She takes the guitar and starts playing it only to realize that the music is magical. The music makes the dead flowers out the window start to bloom, makes the birds start to sing, and makes the sun shine brighter. The tune then carries out the window of the attic and some of the passing villagers hear it and get put into good moods. People come from far and wide to hear Averi play the magic guitar and the village begins to turn more colorful and lively as a result. Then, one day a terrible drought goes through the village causing all the farmers to be sad. The farmers ask Averi to come and play her magic guitar to see if it might make their crops start to grow again. Averi then goes to play the guitar at a farm and all of a sudden it starts to rain down on all the crops causing them to all magically revive and grow. The villagers all cheer and dance to her music. From that day on, Averi uses her magic to bring joy and hope to everyone she meets.
