Lily liked to grow flowers in her garden. She had a small shovel, a water can, and some seeds. She dug holes in the dirt, put the seeds in, and covered them up. Then she watered them every day and waited for them to grow.
One day, she saw a shiny nail on the ground. She picked it up and wondered what it was. She thought it looked like a sword, so she pretended to be a powerful knight. She swung the nail around and made noises like "Zap!" and "Pow!" She felt very brave and strong.
But then she saw a big bee flying near her flowers. She was scared of bees, because they could sting and hurt. She dropped the nail and ran away. She hid behind a tree and hoped the bee would go away.
The bee did not go away. It landed on one of her flowers and started to drink the nectar. Lily watched from behind the tree and saw that the bee was not mean or scary. It was just hungry and thirsty. It did not want to hurt her or her flowers. It was just doing its job.
Lily felt sorry for being afraid of the bee. She decided to be brave and friendly. She picked up the nail and walked slowly to the flower. She said "Hello, bee. I'm sorry I ran away. You can have some of my flowers. They are very pretty and sweet. Do you like them?"
The bee buzzed and nodded. It thanked Lily for sharing her flowers. It said "You are very kind and generous. You have a beautiful garden. You are a powerful gardener. And you have a cool sword. Can I see it?"
Lily smiled and showed the bee her nail. She said "It's not a sword, it's a nail. I found it on the ground. I like to pretend it's a sword, because it's fun. Do you want to play with me?"
The bee said "Yes, I would love to play with you. You are a fun and creative friend. Can we be friends?"
Lily said "Yes, we can be friends. What is your name?"
The bee said "My name is Buzz. What is yours?"
Lily said "My name is Lily. Nice to meet you, Buzz."
They shook hands with the nail and the flower. They laughed and played together in the garden. They were happy and proud. They helped each other grow.
