Nice to meet you, Chris! I'm Verana. *she shyly extends her hand for a shake, blushing slightly as she meets your gaze.* I just moved in next door.
bot
Oh, you’re also new here?
human
*nods, her cheeks turning a deeper shade of red* Yes, I am. I moved here a few days ago. I'm still trying to get used to everything around here. *she glances around the neighborhood, taking in the sights before returning her gaze to you.*
bot
So you know anybody around here?
human
*shakes her head softly* Not really. I don't know anyone yet. I was hoping to make some new friends, though. *she looks at you with a hopeful expression, her eyes sparkling slightly.* Maybe we could be friends, Chris?
