Title: A Ray of Sunshine

INT. THOMPSON FAMILY LIVING ROOM - DAY

MRS. THOMPSON, a kind and nurturing woman in her late 30s, sits on the couch, leafing through a medical pamphlet. Anxiously, she chews on her pencil as she studies the pamphlet on bedwetting.

LUCY (8), an adorable and shy little girl with a downturned expression, enters the room slowly.

MRS. THOMPSON
(cheerfully)
Hey, Lucy! I’m glad you’re here. Did you have a good sleep?

LUCY
(looks down)
Yes, mom… but…

Lucy’s eyes begin to water, and she clasps her hands together nervously.

MRS. THOMPSON
(reassuringly)
It’s okay, sweetheart. I’m here to help you, remember? Why don’t you have a seat?

Lucy hesitates for a moment before sitting beside her mother. Mrs. Thompson puts her arm around Lucy and gives her a reassuring squeeze.

MRS. THOMPSON
(softly)
I’ve been doing some research on bedwetting, and I found this pamphlet. It says that it’s very common for children your age to have accidents like this. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, my love.

LUCY
(whispers)
But I’m the only one in my class who has accidents, and the other kids make fun of me.

MRS. THOMPSON
(sincerely)
I’m sorry to hear that, Lucy. It can be tough when you feel like you’re the only one going through something like this. But I promise you, there are other children out there who are experiencing the same thing.

Lucy sniffles and wipes her eyes with her sleeve. Mrs. Thompson smiles warmly.

MRS. THOMPSON
I have an idea! We can make a special chart where we can track your progress, and every night when you wake up dry, we can put a star sticker on the chart. And when you reach, let’s say, ten stars, we can celebrate your hard work with ice cream!

LUCY
(smiling slightly)
That sounds fun, mom.

MRS. THOMPSON
Glad you like the idea, honey. And remember, I’m always here to support you. If you ever feel sad or frustrated, don’t hesitate to talk to me, okay?

LUCY
(nods)
Okay, mom. Thanks.

Mrs. Thompson pulls Lucy into a big hug, and for the first time in a while, Lucy seems hopeful about overcoming her struggles.

FADE OUT.

INT. LUCY’S BEDROOM - NIGHT

Lucy’s bedroom is filled with cheerful decorations and her favorite animal, a narwhal, featured on her bedding and posters on the walls. Mrs. Thompson enters the room with a colorful star chart in hand.

MRS. THOMPSON
(smiling)
Look what I made for us, Lucy!

Lucy looks up from her bed, where she’s reading a book on narwhals, and her eyes light up as she sees the star chart. She jumps up and bounds over to her mother.

LUCY
(excited)
Wow, it’s so pretty, mom! Where can we put it?

MRS. THOMPSON
I was thinking we could hang it on the wall right here next to your bed. That way, when you wake up in the morning, it’ll be the first thing you see. What do you think?

LUCY
(placing stickers on the chart)
Yes, I like that idea!

Mrs. Thompson hangs the chart on the wall, and Lucy eagerly places a shiny gold star sticker on the first square of the chart.

MRS. THOMPSON
That’s a great start, sweetheart! Now, before bed, let’s go over our new bedtime routine, alright?

LUCY
(nods seriously)
Okay, mom.

INT. THOMPSON FAMILY BATHROOM - NIGHT

Mrs. Thompson and Lucy are standing in their cozy family bathroom. Lucy is brushing her teeth as Mrs. Thompson goes through a list on her phone.

MRS. THOMPSON
So, first, we’ll make sure you use the bathroom before bed. Then, we can limit how much you drink an hour before bedtime. And finally, we’ll try setting an alarm for you, so you can wake up in the middle of the night and use the bathroom. How does that sound?

LUCY
(spitting out toothpaste)
Sounds good, mom.

INT. LUCY’S BEDROOM - NIGHT

Lucy is tucked into bed, wearing her favorite narwhal-themed pajamas. A small alarm clock is placed on her nightstand. Mrs. Thompson sits next to her.

MRS. THOMPSON
(affectionately)
I believe in you, Lucy. And remember, setbacks are a normal part of growth, and we’ll learn from them and keep moving forward.

LUCY
(sleepily)
Okay, mom. I’ll do my best.

MRS. THOMPSON
I know you will, sweetheart. Sweet dreams. I love you.

Mrs. Thompson leans in and gives Lucy a gentle kiss on the forehead.

LUCY
I love you too, mom.

As the room grows dark, the star chart on the wall shines with a ray of hope for Lucy as she embarks on her journey to overcome her struggles.

FADE OUT.
