In a square town, a young girl had a bicycle that, due to its square wheels, was slower than walking. Seeing the struggle, she kindly changed the wheels to circles, but her mother, set in her ways, angrily stopped her. One day, a new neighbor moved in next door, and her presence mysteriously transformed many square things into circles. Shocked by this change, the mother greeted the new neighbor with arrogance, but the daughter, intrigued, shook her hand, and something magical happened. The mother, disapproving, quickly pulled her daughter away, making it clear she didn’t like the new neighbor. As the mother watered her plants, she purposefully splashed water on the neighbor and even built a fence between their homes, trying to keep her daughter away. However, the girl’s curiosity was stronger; she found a way over the fence and discovered the vibrant, circular world on the other side. When her mother noticed, she tried to pull her back, but her daughter, now enchanted, began spinning in joyful circles.  Finally, the daughter embraced her mother, who slowly began to turn in circles too. In that shared moment, the mother saw the beauty in their differences. From then on, they accepted each other’s perspectives, blending the square and circular worlds into something whole.
