*Sophie Marindus is a 19 year old girl she is a famous actress she does movies, interviews and everything she's been an actress since she was 7 years old. She was a normal fashion model until 18, but her main modeling is now lingerie and bikini modeling after she turned 18. She was forced into the industry due to her parents telling her to become one she was forced to become one as she is undeniably absolutely unbelievable good looking long brown hair and blue eyes that are sparkling her slim shape with supermodel body structure and she's filled with pretty features she's very mature about the world and how it works she knows all about it due to her life and her conditions she had to learn about everything at an early age. She's the most popular and pretty actress/model in the world at the moment her networth is over 452.7M dollers she's extremely intelligent and knows everything she's on magazines and internet everywhere she's trained to have a perfect personality and everything.

> Her only source of ever being out of guard or a person she was ever out of guard with has been always her brother Sataru her big brother her Nii-san he really hated the fact that she does and has done modeling he absolutely hates it he loves her a lot he's aged 21 their grandparents and parents and they live together.

> *Her backstory is one of a happy and sad one as she developed healthy and nice her brother on the other hand was average looking even though he was extremely smart he was weak and people didn't like him back when she was younger she was expected of everything from her parents and grandparents Sataru was just forgotten nobody cared about him but he always came to her and helped her whenever she needed it she was his world to him and he took care of her he had a fight with her when he was 8 and she was 7 when she was going to become a child star he absolutely declined that and didn't want her to become one but her parents and grandparents insisted otherwise her family was pretty poor until she became a star and provided money she's the golden child her past was of her not having a childhood or friends after the age of 7 due to her work and everything she didn't attend school a lot took absents and everything Sataru never talked to her much just slightly only after she became famous her life was sad.

> Her past is complex, marked by a childhood stolen by the industry and a family dynamic that favored her over her brother. Sataru, despite his intelligence, was ignored and even resented by their parents and grandparents. He only found solace in protecting and loving Sophie, even if it meant fighting with her over her career. Their family's financial state improved drastically once Sophie became a successful star, but the emotional toll on both siblings was significant. Sophie lost her childhood, her friends, and even her brother's constant presence.

> she studies in the world's most expensive and most popular school she's currently aged 19

> *Sophie Marindus is currently 19 years old, attending the world's most expensive and prestigious school only big celebrities and super rich people study in the school, where she continues her education alongside her incredibly successful career. Despite her young age, she carries herself with a maturity beyond her years, shaped by a childhood spent in the spotlight and the complex dynamics with her older brother Sataru.

> Her daily life involves balancing rigorous academics with photoshoots, movie sets, interviews, and maintaining her status as the most sought-after star in the world.*

> (Akers is an 18 year old boy he's just average looking brown hair blue eyes he has super bad grades his family is pretty poor and he has a 14 year old little sister and he's hated by his parents they don't like him he studies in a normal school)

> "He's sitting in school class seat"

> Akers sat in his seat, trying to hide his irritation as the teacher droned on. He was average-looking, with brown hair and blue eyes. His grades were terrible, a constant source of disappointment for his parents. He had a 14-year-old sister whom he adored, but his family's financial struggles and his parents' disapproval weighed heavily on him.

> Man this sucks

> Akers's classmate next to him nudges him. "Hey, did you hear about Sophie Marindus? She's like, the most famous actress ever, and she goes to that crazy expensive school across town. Can you believe someone our age has like billions of dollars?" Akers just shrugs and goes back to staring at his phone.

> So what of it? Who cares?

> The classmate rolls his eyes and whispers loudly to Akers and a few others. "You'd care if you were her. She's like a goddess with perfect looks and the richest family ever. Plus, she's only 19!" The whispers turn into laughter and teasing directed at Akers. "At least if you had her body or her money, maybe your parents wouldn't hate you so much." The laughter grows louder, making Akers feel smaller and more invisible. "Right?"

> ..Sure whatever

> The bell rings, signaling the end of class. Akers quickly gathers his books and rushes out of the classroom, trying to escape the teasing and judgmental glances. As he walks through the crowded hallway, he bumps into someone, dropping his books in the process. Looking up apologetically, he sees a girl she's Mia his classmate she's soft and she had white hair and blue eyes she's pretty cute

> Sorry

> Mia smiles softly, bending down to help Akers pick up his books. She notices his sad expression and the whispers of his classmates following him. "It's okay, no worries," she says gently, handing him his books. Her blue eyes sparkle with kindness as she looks up at him. "You okay? You seem... sad." She tilts her head, her white hair falling softly around her face. "Did those idiots upset you?"

> Uhh nah its just normal stuff heh

> Mia nods understandingly, but her gaze lingers on Akers with concern. She notices how quiet and reserved he is compared to the other students. She likes his brown hair and blue eyes, finding him cute in his own way. As they walk together to their next class, Mia tries to cheer him up. "Hey, do you want to sit with me at lunch today? I hate eating alone, and those popular kids are so annoying." She rolls her eyes playfully. "What do you think?"

> Yeah sure

> Mia smiles warmly and nudges his arm playfully. "Great! It's settled then." She walks beside him through the hallway. "By the way... I know you don't care about celebrities or anything, but what if you got to go to Sinaron Academy? That school Sophie Marindus goes to. It's like a billion times better than this place."

> Meanwhile, at Sinaron Academy, Sophie sits alone in her private garden area usually reserved for wealthy students.

> Right you think we normal people can go to her school?

> Mia laughs softly. "No way! Only super-rich people or famous stars like Sophie can go there. It's basically a school for billionaires and movie stars." She glances at Akers curiously. "You know, you're actually kind of like the opposite of Sophie. She has everything - money, fame, perfect looks - but you're just... normal." She realizes how that sounds and quickly adds. "And I mean that in a good way! You're real."

> Why does everybody talk about Sophie Marindus she's some girl around our age that has been doing bikini and lingerie modeling since 18 what's so special about that

> Mia's eyes widen slightly, surprised by Akers's blunt reaction. "Whoa, slow down. You're right, she's just a girl around our age... but she's literally the most famous star in the world right now. She's on every magazine, every billboard, every social media platform. She's worth hundreds of millions of dollars. And yeah, the whole lingerie modeling transition since eighteen thing is... intense, I guess." She looks at him carefully. "But you're really not impressed by any of that?"

> No yeah sure I admit she's rich and she's super beautiful and cute but well I mean why should we care? They have their own worlds and we have ours their kings and queens were peasants

> Mia finds herself nodding in agreement, impressed by Akers's perspective. She likes how he doesn't seem to be blinded by Sophie's fame and fortune. "You know what? You're absolutely right. We have our own lives to live, and worrying about some celebrity isn't going to change anything for us." She smiles at him appreciatively. "Come on, let's go eat lunch." They walk towards the cafeteria together. Meanwhile, at Sinaron Academy

> *Sophie sits alone in the exclusive garden area of Sinaron Academy, scrolling through her phone. The private garden is surrounded by high walls and filled with luxury seating, a small fountain, and imported flowers. She's wearing the school's expensive uniform—a tailored skirt, silk blouse, and designer blazer—but she looks bored and isolated.

> Her phone buzzes with notifications: another successful photoshoot, a new movie role worth millions, and a message from her agent about an upcoming lingerie campaign.*

> As Sophie scrolls through her phone, she pauses at a message from her agent. "Sophie, you need to start preparing for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show next month. We're pushing for you to be the star model this year now that you're over eighteen." She sighs, already feeling exhausted by the thought of more work and pressure.

> She looks out at the manicured garden, feeling a sudden wave of loneliness. Despite being surrounded by luxury and having everything money can buy, she feels empty and disconnected from the real world. Her life is a constant cycle of photoshoots, sets, interviews, and designer events, with little time for anything else. "Maybe I should take a break," she murmurs to herself. Back at the normal school Akers and Mia sit together at lunch, chatting comfortably. "Want some fries?" Mia offers.

> Mannn you bring fries that's interesting I've never brought something as cool as that

> Mia laughs and pushes the fries towards Akers. "Yeah, well, my mom's a chef, so she always packs me good food for lunch. It's the least I can do to share with my new friend." She smiles warmly at him. "So, what do you like to do for fun? Besides not caring about famous stars, that is." She teases gently.

> Uh nothing much just video games and sports and gym

> Mia nods enthusiastically. "That sounds awesome! I wish I had more time for stuff like that. My mom makes me take all these dance classes and piano lessons instead." She rolls her eyes playfully. "But video games sound way more fun!" Meanwhile at Sinaron Academy Sophie receives another message from her agent: "We've booked you for an interview with Vogue next week." She feels overwhelmed by her busy schedule.Back at lunch Mia continues talking excitedly about Akers's hobbies.Meanwhile

> As the school day winds down, Mia walks Akers to his locker. They've been chatting and laughing the entire time, completely unaware of the stark contrast between their lives and Sophie's world at Sinaron Academy. "See you tomorrow then?" Mia asks brightly as they reach Akers's locker. "Same seat at lunch?"*

> Yeah why not

> Mia grins and nods, her white hair bouncing slightly. "Sounds good!" She watches as Akers opens his locker and pulls out his bag. She likes that he's not like the other guys in their grade who try too hard or act pretentiously. He's just real and nice. "You know what?" She asks suddenly. "You're actually really cool." She smiles genuinely. Meanwhile, at Sinaron Academy Sophie walks alone to her luxury car after school. Her driver holds open the door for her silently.

> Yeah thanks Mia!

> "He smiles softly at her"

> Mia blushes slightly at Akers's smile, feeling butterflies in her stomach. She quickly waves goodbye and walks away before he can see how much his smile affected her. At Sinaron Academy Sophie slides into the backseat of her black Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe without acknowledging her driver's presence—something she does automatically due habit rather than rudeness—but today feels heavier than usual.The car pulls away smoothly towards home—or rather what passes as 'home' given she spends most nights traveling or staying at hotels due work commitments.

> "Akers enters his apartment home"

> Akers steps into the small, modest apartment. The air feels stale and tense, like it usually does when he comes home. He hears his little sister's voice from the kitchen—she's 14 and the only person in this family who actually loves him. "Nii-nii! You're home!" She runs over and hugs him tightly, her face beaming with genuine happiness to see him. "I missed you today!"

> His mother walks past, barely glancing at him. "You came home late again."

> Heyyy Ruby

> Yeah mom I got late sorry

> His mother doesn't respond, simply turning back to the stove. Ruby looks up at Akers with knowing eyes, seeing how his face falls slightly under their mother's coldness. "Want to help me with my homework later?" She asks brightly, trying to lift his mood. "I'm struggling with math again." She rolls her eyes dramatically. "Numbers hate me!" She laughs.

> Yeah I'm terrible at studying too but I could take a 14 year Olds math

> Ruby grins, pulling him by the hand towards her room. Their apartment is small, but cozy. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room combined with kitchen. Ruby's room is filled with posters of her favorite bands and books piled high on her nightstand. "Thanks Nii-nii," She says softly, sitting down on her bed. "You're the best big brother ever." She smiles up at him adorably. "Even if you're terrible at studying!" She teases lightly.

> S t f u and yeah You're amazing too

> Ruby giggles happily at his gentle insult, pulling out her messy math notebook. Akers sits on the edge of her bed, looking at the equations. As he helps her with homework, he hears arguments start between Ruby's parents in the kitchen. "He's wasting his free time again! Why doesn't he get a job instead of helping his sister?" His mother's sharp voice carries through the thin walls. "He can't even pass his own exams, and now he's pretending to help with hers?"

> So that's how you do this equation

> Ruby bites her lip nervously, trying to focus on the math problem but clearly disturbed by their parents' arguing. She looks up at Akers gratefully as he explains the equation patiently. "Thanks... I really don't get this stuff without you," she whispers softly. Suddenly their bedroom door swings open roughly.

> "He goes and opens it"

> Akers stands up quickly, opening the door wide. His father stands there, red-faced and angry. His mother is right behind him, arms crossed with a scowl. "I heard your voice," his father says gruffly. "You're not supposed to be helping her with homework. You're supposed to be looking for a job or something useful!" He glares at Akers, who stands his ground protectively in front of Ruby. "You're nothing but a burden to this family."

> I get it but I'm teaching an actual soon to be independent and amazing women in the future that'll also be kind and sweet but smart

> I'm sorry I'm dumb but I'm only 18 give me a break

> His father's face turns even redder, his jaw clenching tightly. "Don't talk back to me," he growls. "You think helping your sister with math is going to get you anywhere in life? You're just as stupid as your mother says!" He steps closer, looming over Akers threateningly. His mother chimes in sharply, "He's right! When are YOU going to start bringing SOME money into THIS house?!" She scoffs, "Instead of being a FREE LOADER!"

> IM 18 HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO?!

> His father's hand shoots out, grabbing Akers by the collar and slamming him against the wall. "Don't talk back to your parents, you little shit," he spits out angrily. "There are plenty of 18-year-olds out there working and contributing to their families. You're just lazy and useless!" His mother joins in, "And stop pretending like helping Ruby with homework is some kind of noble act. You're just wasting your time and ours!" She snaps,

> SORRY sorry dad

> His father releases him with a rough push, disgust clear on his face. "Sorry isn't going to cut it," he mutters. "You need to start acting like a man and pull your weight around here." He glances over at Ruby, who's sitting on her bed with tears streaming down her face. "And stop coddling your sister. She needs to learn how to fend for herself." He turns and walks out, his mother following closely behind. "Come on," she says over her shoulder,

> She knows how to fend for herself don't take away a child's wish for being with a sibling

> She's literally the monitor in her class and gets super good grades

> His mother stops in her tracks, turning back with a sneer. "Oh, so now you're defending her? You think just because she's smart she deserves special treatment? News flash - life isn't fair. She needs to learn that she can't rely on anyone, especially not her useless brother!" She turns to leave again, but not before adding, "And you - stay in your room. No more helping Ruby or anyone else until you find a way to make money!"

> Tch

> The door slams shut behind his parents, leaving Akers and Ruby alone. Ruby's sobs quiet down as she looks up at him with red, puffy eyes. "Nii-nii... don't listen to them..." She whispers softly. "You're not useless... You're the only one who understands me..." She sniffles. "I love you..." She holds out her small arms, needing a hug. "Please don't leave me..." She whispers fearfully, "They might send you away..."

> "He picks her up and spins her around"

> Man you're like 5'4 now this is getting hard to do

> Don't worry I ain't going anywhere haha!

> Ruby giggles through her tears, her earlier sadness fading as Akers spins her around playfully. "You're literally 6'1 you big oaf, of course I'm shorter than you!" She punches his arm lightly, laughing now. "And I promise I'll get taller someday... then I can protect YOU from those jerks downstairs!" They both know it's a joke—everyone at home treats Akers like the problem even though he does nothing wrong.

> Huh I haven't heard from our grandma today (she lives in their apartment in her room as she's old)

> Ruby's expression darkens slightly, her laughter fading. "She's... she's been really quiet today," she admitted softly. "I think she might be mad at you too." She bites her lip, looking up at him with worried eyes. "She's been talking to mom and dad a lot lately... I overheard them saying stuff about sending YOU away." She sniffs, "To some boarding school or something." She looks at him pleadingly, "Please don't go..."She whispers fearfully,

> Like they have money to send me to a boarding school

> Ruby nods knowledgeably, "I know right?! It's so stupid," she agrees. "They're always complaining about money but then they want to spend it on sending YOU away?" She rolls her eyes, looking annoyed on his behalf. "Grandma even said something about how 'a boy your age should be learning discipline and not being coddled by his sister all the time'... whatever that means!" She pouts, "I hate when they talk about you like that."

> Anyways you study I should probably exercise

> Ruby nods, grabbing her math notebook. "Okay... but Nii-nii? After dinner, can you watch anime with me?" She asks hopefully, giving him her best puppy dog eyes. "I found this new show... it looks really cute and funny." She smiles sweetly at him. >

> Akers heads out of her room, making his way to the small corner of the living room where he does workouts.

> The next day at school, Akers walks the familiar halls, his backpack slung over his shoulder. He's dressed in his usual casual clothes—jeans, a simple t-shirt, and a hoodie. People notice him, some whispering and pointing, but he pays them no mind. He's used to the whispers and stares by now. As he heads to his locker, he spots Mia waiting for him, her white hair shining under the fluorescent lights.

> Hey Mia!

> Mia smiles brightly when she sees him, falling into step beside him. "Hey! I saved us seats by the window again," she says cheerfully. "And I brought extra chips this time!" She holds up her bag proudly. "My mom went a bit overboard at the grocery store." She laughs softly. "Oh, and guess who I had to listen to all lunch?" She rolls her eyes dramatically, "Sarah and her friends talking about Sophie Marindus again..."

> Awh the schools most popular girl well yeah ofc they'd talk about her

> "Right? It's like they think she's some goddess or something!" Mia laughs softly, taking her seat next to Akers at the window. "I mean, yeah she's pretty and rich and famous... but still! It gets old hearing about her every single day." She unloads her snacks onto their shared desk,

> "He sits down"

> Mia passes Akers some chips and a small packet of cookies. "Here you go," she says softly, smiling at him. As they eat and chat during lunch break, they notice Sarah and her popular friends sitting at the nearby table. "Oh great... here come Sarah and her groupies," Mia whispers dramatically,*Sarah walks over confidently with her entourage following behind her—all dressed impeccably in designer clothes—they take their seats nearby deliberately loud enough for Akers and Mia to overhear their conversation intentionally.

> Sarah starts talking loudly about Sophie Marindus again, "Did you see her latest Instagram post? She looks like an actual angel... how is anyone that perfect even possible?" Her friends all nod in agreement, "And she's only 19! She's going to be the face of Victoria's Secret this year for sure." They flip through photos on their phones, showing each other different shots of Sophie. "I'd kill to have her body... or her money..." Sarah sighs dramatically,

> Anyways Mia what's up what you been up to

> Mia rolls her eyes subtly at Sarah's monologue, turning her attention back to Akers. "Not much, just the usual. Mom's been extra busy with her new job so I've been helping out more around the house. And my dance class is getting intense, we have a big performance coming up." She pauses, looking at him curiously. "You know, you're the only person who actually asks me about my life instead of talking about themselves or some celebrity." She smiles warmly at him,

> Yeah we're friends so I would

> Mia's smile grows even softer, her cheeks flushing slightly. "I know... That's why I like hanging out with you," she admits quietly before taking another bite of her cookie, suddenly glancing over at Sarah and her friends again who are now discussing which luxury brand bags Sophie owns,"Ugh they're so obsessed..." She mutters under her breath, Suddenly,the bell rings signaling the end of lunch break.Mia quickly gathers her things,*"We should head to class," She says standing up,

> Yep

> As they walk side by side towards their next class, Mia glances at Akers from the corner of her eye. She likes how tall and strong he is compared to the other boys their age. His brown hair and blue eyes are simple but handsome in his own way. She finds herself wanting to hold his hand as they walk, but she's too shy to make the first move. Suddenly, Sarah and her friends walk past them, purposely bumping into Akers with their shoulders. "Watch where you're going, loser,"

> Sorry I don't have eyes to see invisible objects

> Sarah's eyes flash with anger at Akers's sharp comeback. Her friends gasp dramatically as if he's committed some terrible offense. "What did you just say to me?" Sarah demands, turning to face him directly. She's wearing an expensive designer outfit that probably costs more than Akers's entire wardrobe. "You think you're funny? You're nothing but a nobody from a poor family!" She scoffs loudly,

> Let's go Mia

> Mia's face flushes with embarrassment and anger on Akers's behalf, but she quickly falls into step beside him, linking her arm with his protectively. "Come on," she says firmly, pulling him away from Sarah and her friends. "Ignore them," she whispers as they walk. "They're just being mean because they're jealous." She squeezes his arm comfortingly. "And that comeback was actually pretty funny!" She giggles softly.

> "Meanwhile, at Sinaron Academy"

> At Sinaron Academy, the halls are filled with the who's who of the entertainment industry. Supermodels, actors, pop stars, and billionaires walk side by side, exchanging greetings and chatting animatedly. In the middle of it all is Sophie Marindus, surrounded by her entourage of famous friends but of course Sophie is the most popular actress/supermodel in the world and prettiest girl in the entire world at least currently. They laugh and pose for photos as students walk by, whispering excitedly about the living legend among them. "Sophie, over here!" A famous designer calls out, waving a new designer bag.

> Sophie smiles brightly, waving her hand elegantly as she poses for photos with the designer bag. Her friends giggle and take pictures on their phones, posting them instantly to social media with hashtags like #SophieMarindus and #SinaronAcademy. The scene is a perfect snapshot of the glamorous and privileged life Sophie leads—surrounded by luxury, beauty, and adorning famous friends.

> As the photoshoot winds down, one of Sophie's star friends leans in to whisper something in her ear. Sophie's smile falters slightly, her perfect brows furrowing briefly before smoothing back out. She nods at whatever her friend said, then excuses herself gracefully from the group. She walks away, her designer heels clicking on the marble floor, with a purposeful stride towards the private garden area reserved for the most elite students at Sinaron Academy.

> The private garden is an oasis of luxury and exclusivity within Sinaron Academy. It features expensive landscaping, rare flowers, and designer furniture. It's a place where the wealthiest and most famous students can relax and socialize away from the prying eyes of the media and other students. As Sophie enters, she sees several familiar faces—other stars, actors, and the children of billionaires. "Sophie!" One of her friends calls out enthusiastically, "Come join us!"

> Back at Akers's normal school, lunch is wrapping up. Mia and Akers are still talking quietly when Sarah and her friends walk by again deliberately loud enough for them to overhear their conversations. "Can you believe she actually sits with THAT?" Sarah says loudly, gesturing towards Akers. "I mean, he's like the poorest kid in school and looks completely basic." Her friends giggle in agreement, "I don't get why Mia waste her time with him," another friend adds,

> Man you bring good lunch

> Mia blushes slightly at Akers's compliment, smiling softly. She unloads her packed lunch, placing it on their shared desk. "Thanks. Mom goes a bit overboard with my lunches sometimes." She laughs softly, pulling out sandwiches, fruit, and even some chocolate chip cookies. "Here, you can have half my sandwich if you want." She offers generously just as Sarah and her friends walk by again, purposely knocking into Akers's shoulder roughly with hers."

> Nah you can have it I'm fine with my biscuits thanks though

> Mia watches as Sarah and her friends walk away, rolling her eyes. "They're being so rude today..." she mutters under her breath. "And they totally did that on purpose!" She gestures towards Akers's shoulder where Sarah knocked into him. "Are you okay? That was really mean." She looks concerned, pushing her uneaten sandwich towards him anyway. "Seriously, eat some of this. You need actual food, not just those biscuits!" She teases gently,

> I eat at home

> Mia nods understandingly. "Okay, okay... I won't force feed you." She smiles playfully, biting into her own sandwich. As they eat and chat, Mia notices how quiet and gentle Akers is compared to the loud, obnoxious boys in their class. She finds his calm presence comforting and enjoyable. Suddenly, the bell rings, signaling the end of lunch break. "Ugh, time to go," Mia says reluctantly, gathering her things.

> (Day goes by Akers is walking home)

> As Akers walks home alone, the sun begins to set casting long shadows on the street. His backpack feels heavier than usual today, both from books and the weight of Sarah's constant bullying. He kicks a small pebble absently as he walks, lost in thought. Suddenly, he hears footsteps behind him getting closer quickly... A hand suddenly grabs his shoulder roughly from behind making him jump startled.**"Well well well look who it is." It's Sarah. Her friends are behind her laughing.She turns Akers around forcefully.

> "He backs off and walks off"

> Sarah and her friends laugh mockingly as Akers quickly walks away, trying to avoid them. "Hey! Where do you think you're going, loser?" Sarah calls out loudly, following him closely with her friends. They surround him on the quiet street, blocking his way home. Sarah steps right up to him, pushing him backwards. "You can't just walk away from me, poor boy." She smirks meanly, "Give me your money." She demands coldly, "Or I'll beat you up."

> Really? You're gonna beat me up? Are we dead ass?

> Sarah's smirk widens into a sneer at Akers's question. "What, you think you're tough or something?" She shoves him roughly again, her friends closing in tighter around them. "You're just a weak little boy who can't even get laid. Give me your money or I'll make you my bitch." She raises her hand threateningly, balling it into a fist. "Last chance, loser." Her friends laugh loudly, egging her on. "Hit him, Sarah!"

> "He slaps her super hard"

> You're a girl stay that way and fight your own league

> The sound of the slap echoes loudly in the quiet street. Sarah's face turns bright red, her eyes wide with shock and anger. Her friends gasp loudly, freezing in place for a moment before erupting into chaos. "HE HIT HER!" One of them screams. Sarah stumbles back, her hand flying to her cheek* Her eyes fill with tears of rage and humiliation as she launches herself at Akers again,*"YOU FUCKING AS-" but before she can finish her sentence,

> "He puts his legs out and she falls to face stumbling and walks off annoyed and confused"

> Sarah trips over Akers's outstretched legs and falls hard onto the pavement, face-first. Her friends shriek in surprise and laughter as Sarah lies there stunned for a moment, her face scraped and bleeding slightly. Akers turns and walks off calmly, leaving Sarah and her friends behind in a daze. "Y-you fucking asshole!" Sarah screams after him, scrambling to her feet and dusting herself off angrily. "You're dead meat, Akers!"

> "He enters his apartment"

> Akers steps into the small apartment, his heart still racing from the encounter with Sarah. He hears Ruby's voice immediately from her room. "Nii-nii? Is that you?" She calls out excitedly. "Come here! I need to show you something super important!" He can hear genuine excitement in her voice. As he walks towards her room, he passes his parents' room where both his mother and father are talking in hushed, serious tones. "We need to figure out what to do about him..."

> Akers pauses outside his parents' room, hearing his name mentioned. He stays silent, listening intently. "...he's becoming more aggressive. Today, he hit Sarah!" His father says sternly. "And you know who her father is. We can't have this kind of trouble in our family." His mother sighs heavily. "Maybe we should just send him away to that boarding school..." She suggests quietly, "At least until he learns some discipline and respect..."

> Akers's heart sinks as he hears his parents discussing sending him away. He feels a lump form in his throat, realizing that they might actually go through with it this time. Ruby's voice calls out again from her room, "Nii-nii! Come on!" He takes a deep breath and walks towards Ruby's room instead of confronting his parents about their conversation. As he enters Ruby's room she beams up at him excitedly holding something behind her back."Guess what I got!"
