We line up for lunch in the school cafeteria, chatting quietly with our friends.
The smell of warm soup and fresh bread fills the air, making my tummy rumble.
I hold my tray carefully and wait my turn, watching the colorful plates go by.
When it’s finally my turn, I smile and say, “Thank you!” as the lunch lady serves my favorite pasta.
I find a seat next to my best friend, and we talk about our morning while we eat.
The room buzzes with happy voices and the clinking of spoons on bowls.
After lunch, we clean up and get ready for recess, feeling full and ready to play.
Lining up for lunch is a small part of school that feels big and friendly.
