In the school's corridor.
Amira, Luna and Charlie were walking down the corridor to get their books from their lockers. While going there, Luna and Charlie were ranting to Amira about their boyfriend and girlfriend.
When they almost reached their lockers, they saw those girls. Rachel, Jasmine and Kacy. All three of them were standing by their lockers.
Amira walked over to them to confront them.
"I thought this was already settled? Yet I come over here to see you all at me and my friends' lockers, blocking it to prevent us from getting our stuff. What is it now?"
Amira thought that their agreement was already finished, but it seems like it wasn't.
That's the end of the clip! Read more to find out where this happened, why it happened and what their agreement was.
...Year: 2011...
...Age: 4 and 5...
Amira and Aiden's parents were friends, best friends in fact. Their mothers were best friends back in middle school till now (2024).
Amira and Aiden first met each other in kindergarten, at the playground. They seemed to not like each other at the first glance.
Teacher: "Come children, meet the other kids and be friends."
The teacher told the kids before letting them go in the playground.
Amira found herself talking with two girls. Their names were Charlie Lopez and Luna Jones.
When Charlie and Luna went to get toys inside the classroom. Amira sat down on the swings, waiting for them to come back.
She was swinging back and forth happily till someone approached her. Aiden Clark.
Aiden: "Hey, it's me and my friends turn to play on the swings. Go and play somewhere else." He said in a demanding tone.
Amira: "What? No way! I got here first!" She protested.
Aiden: "You've been here since earlier! Go away!"
They were now in an argument. Well their first encounter was something.
His friends, Elias and Theo, were behind him as they tried to calm him down and stop him from getting into an argument on their first day of school.
In the middle of the argument, Luna and Charlie came back.
Charlie: "Hey! Go away and leave our friend alone!"
Aiden: "Your friend has been here since earlier. It's our turn to go on the swings!"
Luna: "Fine, fine. Let's go girls"
Amira: "But-"
Charlie: "No buts. Let's go play in the sand."
Amira: "Hmph, fine!"
Luna and Charlie apologized on her behalf and they soon went to the sand area.
Elias: "We should've just left, you know?"
Aiden: "No. She was there for way too long."
Theo: "Maybe you should've asked nicely. She might've left if you did instead of putting up a fight."
Aiden: "Whatever. At least we have the swings to ourselves now."
Amira's POV
"Ugh, that boy was just so! Argh!! He's so annoying!!" She was fuming in thoughts.
The three of them were now playing in the sand, building sand castles and towers. They played till their teacher called out to all the kids.
Teacher: "Children, your parents are here to pick you up."
All the children went back inside the classroom to find their parents waiting for them.
One thing that caught Amira's eyes was that her mother was talking to another woman. That also caught the eye of Aiden, wondering who his mother was talking to.
Both of them went running to their mothers and hugged them. Amira turned to the woman who her mom was talking to and saw Aiden hugging the woman.
He also did the same and was shocked when he saw Amira hugging the person his mom was laughing and talking to.
Amira: "You again! Do you really have to appear everywhere??"
Aiden: "It's not my fault that I needed to go here. It's not like I wanted to see you or your ugly face." He said as he stuck out his tongue.
Amira: "How rude!!"
They were arguing again but this time, it was in front of their mothers. Their mothers started laughing as they saw how their children interacted with one another.
Aiden: "Mom, why are you laughing?"
Amira: "Yeah, Mama. You too."
Their mothers looked at each other and then spoke.
Amira's Mom: "Kids, it's nothing to worry about."
Aiden's Mom: "If you're wondering how we know each other, we're best friends since middle school."
Amira's Mom: "Don't you two want to get along?"
Amira: "No way, Mama!! He's rude and mean! I hate him!!"
Aiden: "I hate her too! She's so stubborn and bratty!"
Amira: "How am I bratty?! You're the one who has been picking on me since earlier!"
They argued for a few more minutes till their mothers finally broke them out of their argument and took them to go home. Their mothers said goodbye to each other and went home with their kids.

...Year: 2015...
...Age: 8 and 9 (Amira and Aiden)...
Well, kindergarten wasn't the end of their meeting. All throughout elementary school, they fought, argued, played, pranks on each other, got into detention, etc.
In third grade, while Amira and her friends were walking towards their classroom for their next class, they met the new girls.
Those new girls were Rachel Sanchez, Jasmine Harris and Kacy Nelson.
Charlie wasn't paying attention in front of her since she was busy annoying Luna and Amira so she accidentally bumped into Rachel.
Rachel: "Watch where you're going, loser." She said as she rolled her eyes at Charlie then pushed her, making her fall on the ground.
Amira: "She didn't even mean to bump into you. Hey wait, aren't you guys the new students?"
Jasmine: "Yeah, we are.
Amira: "New students? Interesting. Causing trouble on the first day?"
Kacy: "Don't come near us again."
Amira: "Or else what? Your friend over here pushed mine. " She challenged them as she wasn't afraid of anyone.
Rachel: "We'll make your lives h*ll."
Charlie: "Amira, that's enough. I'm fine, just a scratch on my knee. "
Luna: "Come on, girls. Let's go to class now."
Amira glared at Rachel and her friends and then walked off with Charlie and Luna.
Once they were far from them, Amira spoke in an annoyed tone.
Amira: "They were brats. I can't believe how rude their mouths were."
Luna: "I know they were rude, but you can't just put up another fight with them."
Charlie: "Control your anger, Amira."
Amira: "Ugh! If they mess with us again, I'll show them."
They entered the classroom, just a few minutes before English class started.
...-------------...
In the middle of class, Amira felt something pulled her chair from behind. She looked behind her and saw Aiden and his mischievous smile.
Amira: "You pulled my chair, didn't you?"
Aiden: "What if I did? Watcha gon do about it?"
She glared at him and then looked at the whiteboard, listening to the lesson.
...-----------...
After English class was over, there was only one more class before school was over. She needed to get her Science book for next period.
While walking back to her desk to get her bag, she saw that Aiden was sitting on her chair, and he looked at her like he expected her to go there.
Amira: "Now you're sitting in my chair? What do you even want?"
Aiden: "Nothing. Just wanna annoy ya, you know?" He said with a mischievous grin on his face.
Amira: "Your grin says otherwise. What do you really want?"
Aiden: "I told you already. I'm just here cuz I'm bored, and I like annoying you." He said with an innocent looking smile.
It seems like she saw right through that not so innocent smile.
Amira: "Quit playing your games with me. I have a class to attend to. Don't you too?"
Aiden: "I do too, Science class. I don't like Science, and I'm always bored in that class."
Amira: "Whatever, suit yourself if you wanna fail. Bye, loser."
She grabbed her bag and walked out of the classroom, walking over to her next class.
...---------------...
After class ended, Amira went to meet with Charlie and Luna.
Charlie: "How was your day today, girls?"
Luna: "It was alright. Yours?"
Charlie: "Mine was great! I met a boy in class today! His name is Theo, Theodore Davis."
Luna: "That's nice. I made a new friend today. Her name is Harper."
Charlie: "How was your day Amira?"
Amira: "It was fine. Aiden kept annoying me in class. I'm still annoyed by the fact that Rachel pushed you, Charlie."
Charlie: "Don't think too much about it. I just went to the nurse and got a band-aid."
Amira: "Whatever. Just tell me if they mess with you. You too, Luna."
They continued walking towards the outside of the school, seeing that their parents have arrived there.
They waved goodbye and said "See you tomorrow!" at each other before leaving.
