Use the paragraph to answer the question.

Daniella sat on her bedroom floor, her math book and scrap paper scattered around her. She buried her head in her hands. She couldn't wait until Jorge, her next-door neighbor and math genius, got there. She had texted him a few minutes ago asking if he could come help her study for her math exam, and, as always, he responded right away with an enthusiastic yes. He had helped her out so many times over the last few years.

"Hi!" Daniella said cheerfully, her stress melting away at the sight of her neighbor at her door.

"Hey," Jorge replied as he walked in her room. "Let's get to it!"

"Thank you so much. I know I can always count on you to help me out!". Daniella said as she put her arm around Jorge.

Jorge smiled. "I'm happy to help. Math is sort of my thing, you know."
