                      In school Zella, Estella and Echo introduce themselves. Echo sits next to Estella behind Chloe Bourgeois. Zella sat next to Nathaniel. Echo says, in Malay, French and English, "Ello, my name is Amegreb Huang, but to save you the trouble of pronouncing the word, just call me Echo. I moved here from Malaysia because of some issues but we all good. I'm from Sabah and I mainly live near the woods.". Estella said in a mixture of French and English, "Hi, I'm Estella Castillos. I moved here to brush up my French." Zella exclaimed, "Wait, you're Estella Castillos? I'm Zella Larissa!" "Zella Larissa? My pen pal from Australia?". Adrien Agreste then piped up in English and French, "Wait a minute? Castillos? THE Castillos? Like 'Scent Castillos'? The perfume company?". Everyone stared at Estella. ".....Yeah, my mom owns the company....".

                  Miss Bustier said, "Well that introduction took an interesting turn of events. Now to get everyone adjusted, we're going to do a group project. Everyone pair up with the person next to you.". The awkward silence between Estella and Echo was very loud. "Sooo, your mom works in the perfume industry?" Echo started. Chloe interrupted, "Oh shut up peasant! Estella, why don't you join my group instead? You get to sit next to me! Sabrina, go sit next to the other guy!". 

                   Echo saw that Sabrina looked pretty sad. "Hey, don't ditch your group member like that!" he said. Chloe scoffed, "Maybe it's because you're from the countryside, you don't know how cities work. So let me tell you that it's every person for themselves!".

 Echo: Wow, I can totally see that in your eyeshadow! It looks terrible!

Chloe: Why- you-!

Echo: Oh stop talking and focus on the project. Look's like your mind is on vacation and your mouth is working overtime.

Chloe: stammers and sputters This is ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous! Come over Estella! Sabrina, move!

Estella: You're not my boss. I choose my own group members. Plus Miss Bustier said- um, what did she say? I can't understand French very well.

Echo in English then repeating in French: She said pair up with the people next to you.

Estella: Yeah she said that. 

Chloe: Ugh! You're all ridiculous! Let's go Sabrina!

Miss Bustier: Miss Bourgeois, class isn't over.

Chloe: Ughhhhhhhh!!

                After school, Zella and Estella ran up to Echo.

Echo: You stood up for me during class, do you have a small crush on me?

Estella turns as red as a tomato: Uhhhhhh no no no no!!

Zella: You were awesome with the way you dealt with Chloe! How did you come up with those sassy lines?

Echo takes out a thick book: It is called How To Be Sassy 101. I read it 10 times a day. This is just volume 1. My mum is going to get me volume 4 next week. You can borrow 1 - 3 if you want. 

Zella: Ooh, can I?

Echo: Here you go. Remember to return it when you're done.

Estella is still blushing.

Frank: Hey Echo! Do you want a lift home or what?

Echo: Yeah coming Frank!

Zella: Is that your brother?

Echo: No, he's my ride.

                 In the car, Frank asks Echo about school.

Frank: So, you got two new girlfriends or something?
