INT. HIGH SCHOOL CAFETERIA - DAY Jane, a 14-year-old girl with short black hair, sits at a table with Sam, her girlfriend with long brown hair, and Ruby, her 13-year-old friend with glasses. The cafeteria is filled with noisy chatter and the smell of food. Ruby looks pale and places a hand on her stomach. RUBY (weakly) Ugh, guys... I'm feeling really nauseous. JANE (concerned) Oh no, Ruby! Are you alright? SAM (worried) Do you need to go to the nurse, Ruby? RUBY (shaking her head) No, no, I'm fine. It just hit me all of a sudden. Ruby takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself. Jane offers her a bottle of water. JANE Here, have some water. It might help. Ruby takes a few sips of water before leaning back in her chair. Sam reaches out and places a hand on Ruby's shoulder, offering comfort. SAM Maybe you should lie down for a bit. The nurse's office won't be as crowded during lunchtime. RUBY (weak smile) Thanks, Sam. That sounds like a good idea. Jane stands up, ready to accompany Ruby to the nurse's office. JANE I'll go with you, just in case. RUBY (appreciative) You guys don't have to. SAM We want to, Ruby. Don't worry about it. INT. SCHOOL HALLWAY - DAY Jane and Sam walk alongside Ruby, who seems a little better but still holds her stomach. They pass other students on their way to the nurse's office. JANE (hushed) Are you feeling any better, Ruby? RUBY (nods) Yeah, I think so. Thanks for taking care of me. SAM Of course, that's what friends are for. They reach the nurse's office, and Jane opens the door for Ruby. The school nurse, MRS. WILSON, a middle-aged woman with a friendly face, greets them. MRS. WILSON What seems to be the problem, Ruby? RUBY (breathing deeply) I suddenly felt nauseous in the cafeteria, Mrs. Wilson. I think I need to lie down for a bit. MRS. WILSON Alright, lie down on the bed here. I'll get you some water and give you a few minutes of rest. Ruby obediently lies down on the bed as Jane and Sam exchange concerned looks. JANE (in a soft voice) Hang in there, Ruby. We'll be right outside if you need anything. SAM (nodding) Take your time, Ruby. We'll be here for you. The two girls step out of the nurse's office, leaving Ruby to rest. The camera pans out, highlighting their support and friendship. FADE OUT.
