Is buzzing with chatter and laughter as students prepare to eat their lunches.
Among the sea of perfectly coiffed hair and designer outfits, there sit Julia.
Julia known throughout the school for her spoiled and mean-spirited behavior. She has never been nice to anyone, always flaunting her wealth and belittling those around her.
Today, something is different with her, as she is sitting with her friends at the table. She glances around the room.
Her eyes land on Zara sitting by herself, her eyes filled with sadness and worry.
Without thinking twice, Julia stands up from her table and make her way to Zara, a genuine smile on her face.
Julia (Lucien's sister)
Hey, Zara mind if I join you for lunch? *she asks.*
Surprises both Zara and the other students around them.
Zara looks up in astonishment at the sudden act if kindness from Julia.
Zara
Um, sure, Julia. That would be nice. * she replies, a hint of confusion in her voice.*
Julia sit down at the table, she begins to engage with Zara in conversation, asking her about her favorite subjects in school and her hobbies.
Zara couldn't believe the change in Julia's demeanor, as she has always been intimidated by her harsh exterior.
Meanwhile, at a nearby table, Lucien and Jake watches in confusion as the see Julia interacting with Emma in a friendly and caring manner.
Jake (Lucien bestie)
What's going over there? * Whispers to Lucien, pointing at the unlikely pair.*
Lucien shrugs, equally puzzled by her sudden change in Julia's behavior.*
Lucien(ML)
I'm not sure. Let's just be grateful for the kindness she's showing her today.
