Mia loved flowers. She had a small garden in front of her house, filled with colorful flowers—roses, tulips, daisies, and sunflowers. Every morning, she watered the flowers, talked to them, and watched them bloom.

One day, while walking home from school, Mia saw a small, lonely flower growing in the middle of an empty field. It had only one petal, and its leaves looked weak.

"This poor flower needs help," Mia thought. She knelt down and touched its tiny stem. 

"Don’t worry, little flower. I will take care of you."

Mia ran home and returned with a small bottle of water. She poured a few drops onto the flower's dry soil. "I’ll come back every day," she promised.

For days, Mia visited the flower. She gave it water, removed the weeds around it, and even talked to it. 

"You are special, little flower. I know you can grow strong."
