The Quiet Observer

Besjan stepped off the bus and gazed at the unfamiliar village in Kosovo. He clutched his bag tightly, feeling nervous about his new school. As he walked through the village, the thatched roofs and minarets seemed to whisper secrets to each other. Besjan's heart beat fast, hoping he'd find friends easily. In class, Besjan struggled to connect with his classmates. They chattered and laughed while he sat alone, his shyness a heavy cloak. "I wish I could be like the others, making friends easily," he whispered to himself. His teacher, a kind woman with a warm smile, noticed Besjan's struggles. "Don't worry, Besjan. You'll make friends in no time," she reassured him. But Besjan doubted it. One day, while sitting in class, Besjan suddenly heard his classmates' thoughts! "I'm so hungry, I wish it was lunchtime already." "I wonder what's for homework tonight." Besjan's eyes widened as he realized he could read minds! With his newfound power, Besjan began to understand his classmates better. He discovered their favorite subjects (math and art), their hobbies (playing soccer and collecting stamps), and even their fears (spiders and thunderstorms). As he connected with his classmates on a deeper level, they started to include him in their games and conversations. Besjan finally felt like he belonged. As the days passed, Besjan's confidence grew. He learned to control his mind-reading ability, using it to help his friends and himself. His classmates admired his unique gift, and soon, Besjan found himself surrounded by a group of friends who appreciated him for who he was.

The Problem-Solver

Besjan was sitting in his classroom, staring out the window. He loved listening to his friends' thoughts, but sometimes it was overwhelming. "What's going on, guys?" he thought to himself. As he tuned in, he heard his friends' worries and troubles. Fatmire was worried about her sick grandmother. "I'm so worried about my sick grandmother," she thought. Besjan immediately focused on her thoughts. "Don't worry, Fatmire. I'm sure your grandmother will get better," he said, turning to her with a reassuring smile. Next, he heard Leke worrying about his math homework. "I don't understand fractions," he thought. Besjan knew exactly what to do. He drew a pizza with 8 slices and explained, "Imagine you have 1/2 of the pizza. You can draw a line to show the half." Leke's face lit up with understanding. As the day went on, Besjan helped his friends overcome their problems. He used his mind-reading ability to understand their thoughts and find solutions. His friends were amazed at how he seemed to know exactly what to say. By the end of the day, the whole class was buzzing with excitement and gratitude. "Thanks, Besjan!" they cheered.

The Trust Builder

Besjan sat quietly at his desk, his bright green eyes sparkling with kindness. His classmates were chatting and laughing, but Besjan's ears perked up when he heard Arlind whisper to Eliza, "I'm scared of the upcoming math test." Arlind glanced nervously around the room, but Besjan's gentle smile put her at ease. "Don't worry, Arlind," Besjan said softly. "I can help you study." Arlind's eyes lit up, and she leaned in closer. "Really, Besjan? You'd do that for me?" Besjan nodded, his curly brown hair bobbing up and down. "Of course! I'm great at math. We can practice together during recess." As the days went by, Besjan's classmates began to open up to him, sharing their secrets and problems. There was something about Besjan that made them trust him instantly. One day, while they were playing outside, Egzon confided in Besjan about his fear of speaking in front of the class. Besjan listened attentively, his eyes twinkling with understanding. "I know it's scary, Egzon," Besjan said gently. "But I believe in you. You can do it! Let's practice your presentation together." Egzon's face lit up with gratitude. "Thanks, Besjan. You're the best!" As the trust grew, Besjan discovered he could read the thoughts of his classmates. He could sense their worries, their fears, and their dreams. During math class, Besjan used his newfound power to help his friends. When Arlind struggled with fractions, Besjan whispered the answers in her ear. When Eliza forgot the multiplication table, Besjan reminded her of the correct sequence. As the test day approached, Besjan's classmates felt confident, thanks to his guidance and support. On the day of the test, the classroom buzzed with excitement. Besjan's friends sat calmly, their pencils poised and ready. The test began, and as they worked on their math problems, Besjan's friends felt a strange sensation – as if they were being guided by an invisible force. When the test ended, the results were astonishing. Everyone had aced the test! Arlind, Eliza, and Egzon rushed to Besjan, beaming with joy. "We did it, Besjan! We couldn't have done it without you!"

The Mind-Reader's Secret

Besjan's eyes sparkled as he sat in his math class, staring at the complex multiplication problem on the board. His classmates were struggling, but Besjan's mind worked like a calculator, solving the problem in a flash. Suddenly, Vjosa turned to him and whispered, "Wow, Besjan! You can really read minds!" The room fell silent as every eye turned to Besjan. His face flushed, Besjan hesitated, unsure what to do. But then he smiled, realizing this was a chance to prove his uniqueness wasn't a curse, but a superpower. "Yes, it's a big responsibility, but I promise to use it to help you all," he said, his voice filled with determination. As Besjan's classmates began to understand, they started to appreciate his gift. They learned that Besjan's mind-reading ability wasn't just about solving math problems; it was about understanding each other's thoughts and feelings, too. Together, they created a math club, where Besjan used his power to help them solve brain teasers and puzzles. As they worked together, the classroom transformed into a vibrant hub of creativity and friendship.

The New Besjan

Besjan beamed with pride as he stood in front of his classmates, his bright blue eyes sparkling with excitement. "Let's organize a class party! We can all have fun together," he suggested, his voice filled with enthusiasm. "Yeah! Let's do it!" his classmates cheered in unison, their faces lighting up with anticipation. With newfound confidence, Besjan took charge, dividing the class into groups to plan the perfect celebration. Emma and Ryan worked on decorations, while Olivia and Max handled the snacks. Besjan, meanwhile, teamed up with Ava to create a special math-themed treasure hunt. As they worked together, Besjan shared fascinating facts about geometry and patterns, explaining how they were used in art and architecture. His classmates listened, captivated by his stories of ancient civilizations and their innovative designs. On the day of the party, the classroom transformed into a vibrant wonderland. Colorful streamers and balloons adorned the walls, while a giant pi symbol made from cookies and candies took center stage. The treasure hunt was a huge success, with clues and riddles leading the kids on an adventure around the room. As they counted down to the final treasure, Besjan's classmates cheered him on, proud of their friend for bringing them together. With every solve, they learned about patterns, shapes, and measurements, their minds buzzing with excitement and curiosity. Together, they celebrated their math-tastic party, surrounded by laughter, friendship, and the magic of learning. Besjan smiled, knowing that his confidence and creativity had brought his classmates closer together.
