In the story, Sarah and Jake have been best friends since childhood. They enjoy spending time together, often playing video games and going to the park. Over the summer, they decide to work on a community project to plant trees in their neighborhood. As they spend more time together, Sarah begins to realize that she has feelings for Jake that go beyond friendship.

Despite her growing feelings, Sarah is afraid to tell Jake because she fears he might not feel the same way and it could ruin their friendship. Jake, on the other hand, seems to be oblivious to Sarah's feelings and continues to treat her as just a friend.
