Unseen Passage 05 - Class 8
Sophie and her brother Max enjoy playing a game of throw and catch. They engage in throwing softballs, footballs, and tennis balls back and forth in their backyard. On occasion, they head to the local park to have more space for their throws. During rainy days, they shift their game to the basement, where they use a tennis ball that bounces off the walls. Sophie feels a tinge of sadness as her brother is about to attend soccer camp for a week during the summer. She worries about not having anyone to play catch with while he is away.
In the week leading up to Max's departure, they visit the park together. To their delight, they notice a girl named Mia practicing her ball-tossing skills all by herself. Sophie and Max extend a warm invitation to her, inviting her to join in their catch game. Sophie's spirits lift as she now has a newfound friend, Mia, to play catch with while her brother is away at camp.
