On Paula's second day at Landgraab High, she was filled with joy and anticipation.

However, she realized that the school was not in sight. Despite this, Paula remained calm and continued on her way.

Unfortunately, Paula stumbled and fell hard on the pavement. Indeed, she had taken her medication, she found that she was too weak to stand up.

It was then that it crossed her mind that the cause of her weakness - was the sun. It was overheating her, with her weak immune system this just made it difficult for her to move.

As the music from Joulo's black tinted Ferrari blasted, Matthew sat at the passenger's seat while Shawn and James sat in the back.

Speeding down the road, they caught sight of a figure on the sidewalk. Joulo slowed the car at the flash of pink.

❝ Hey, isn't that Pau-pau? ❞ James shouted as he recognized her.

Joulo quickly stop the car, and James jumped out to approach her. As the group surrounded her, they asked Paula what had happened. She gave a small smile and shook her head, indicating that she was okay.

Without a word, Joulo gently lifted her up and placed her in the back seat, sandwiched between James and Shawn.

Concerned for Paula's well being, Matthew suggested ❝ Should we take her to the hospital? ❞

Joulo volunteered to take her himself, ❝ I'll take her, there's no point to go there altogether, I'll drop you off at the school. ❞

James, however, made a stupid comment about Joulo's intentions, which provoked Joulo's anger. ❝ Joulo, you're going to mate with her? I don't want you to do that to her! She's innocent and pure! ❞

❝ Shut up,❞ he replied.

Upon the arrival of the car, a swarm of excited girls quickly formed, chanting the names of the Audeux band members. James, Shawn and Matthew went down from the vehicle, finding themselves amidst the crowd of fans who were all trying to get for their attention.

Even with the overwhelming excitement, the band members pushed through the crowd with the help of their bodyguards, attempting to make their way to inside the school unharmed.

However, the girls weren't holding back, grabbing at their clothing and fighting each other just to get closer to their idols. Thankfully, the school security were able to intervene and kept everyone safe.

Marielle was among of those screaming girls, her voice was not even heard. But her excitement abruptly turned to jealousy as she caught a glimpse of Paula in the car. She undoubtedly knew that it was Paula. Marielle's anger boiled over and she was ready to tear Paula apart.

As the car drove away, the girls slowly dispersed. Some still lingered, hoping for a second glance at the Audeux band members, while others went back to their daily school routine, their excitement slowly fading with each passing moment.
