Kamala went back home and was rushing to look for her Ammi .

Kamala : Ammi !

(In slow motion ) Kamala nearly gets hit by a man. Her eyes sparkles and blushes as she saw him .

The man : Woah, slow down ! What's up ?

He chuckles .

Ammi : Kamala , this is Kamran

Kamran : Hey , Kamala !

Kamala : Hi ...

Ammi : And his mother , Najma .

Najma : Hello Kamala . I am Najma . It's great to meet you .

Kamala : Nice to meet you ,too .

Ammi : Also , she was your great-grandmother's sister .

Najma : Yes , your great-grandmother and I were sisters.

Kamala : Woaaaahhhh ! Really ?

Najma : Mhm .

Kamran : Hey ,you must be the girl who I help you to pick up the books ?

Kamala : Yeah ... OH WAIT ! You're the guy who I get hit !

Najma : Both of them are perfect for each other ,right ?

Ammi : Yes.

Najma turns to Kamran .

Najma : Kamala is so stunning , right Kamran ?

Kamran : I....I...I didn't say that .

Ammi ,Kamala, and Najma laughed .

Kamala: Maybe ,you were shy to talk to girls like me .

Najma : I think both of you should get to know each other . It will be good to socialise .

Kamran : Right ,mom . Kamala , lets get some fresh air from outside.

Both Kamala and Kamran went outside .

Kamran : So... how's your day , Kamala ?

Kamala : Let's just say it was okay ... I have fun seeing people pulling a prank on my History teacher .

Kamran : Same !!! I heard a lot of things about you .

Kamala : Wait, what makes you say that ?

Kamran : Let's just say your grandmother , Sana told my mom that she has a granddaughter like you who lives in New Jersey and you always do things that makes your family proud .

Kamala : Interesting ...

Kamala sighs and looks down .

Kamran : Hey , is everything okay ?

Kamala : Not really ...

Kamran : You can tell me everything .

Kamala : I know I face so many problems nowadays . Okay fine , my parents somehow get angry at me for failing math and getting bullied at school .

Kamran : That's normal to fail .But it's not okay to get bullied by people in school . You could have told the principal about this .

Kamala : No , things will get worse .

Kamran : Okay so... who is that person who bullied you ?

Kamala : Zoe Zimmer .

Kamran : Not that girl who posts TikTok videos . Anyway, do you have friends to hang out with ?

Kamala : Yes , I hang out with Bruno and Nakia. They both are always by my side but not all the time they will appear when I get bullied at school .

Kamran : Oh my gosh , I feel bad for you . I wish I was with you so that I can stop all those people hurting you .

Kamala : Thanks .

Kamran : And hey , I was thinking if we can hang out after school .

Kamala: Umm....

Kamran : Come on .

Kamala : Sorry I can't tell you ...but I don't hang out with people ,nowadays .

Kamran : Why ?

Kamala : Because they are busy .

Kamran : I see maybe someday , we might go on a date .

Kamala : Well, I'll think about that .

Najma called Kamran to go home . Kamran looked at Kamala .

Kamran : Great ! Let me know in school tomorrow . Bye Kamala !

Kamala : Byeee!

Kamran smiles at her .Najma and Kamran went home . Kamala and her mom had conversations.

Kamala : I didn't know Najma and my great-grandmother are close .

Ammi : Of course , your Nani told me everything .

Kamala : Ammi , I have a good news for you !

Ammi : What is it ?

Kamala : Bruno and I are at the top of the Science project.

Kamala and Ammi were talking about their family generations .

Dante and Gwen were practising their drumming skills in the band room.

Gwen : Dante, I see your drumming skills improving!

Dante : Thanks Gwen, you as well .

Gwen chuckles .

Gwen : So do you remember what I told you ?

Dante : I'm sorry , I forget what you told me. But...I wish my dad was proud because he thinks that I am a monster who cannot control my own superpower...

Gwen : You know your dad reminds me of my dad. My dad used to hate me as a Ghost-Spider even though after revealing my secret identity to him, he was still upset with me. But I didn't give up. I know I can be strong and show him proof that I am a perfect daughter.

Dante : That's nice. But, how does he accepts you even if you are still Ghost-Spider?

Gwen : Let's just say, tell them the truth and never give up on yourself. Also, being different from other people makes you special.

Dante : You're right, Gwen. I should talk to my dad and tell him the truth. I hope he accepts me as a normal human.

Gwen : Same goes for my band member , Mary Jane .

Gwen sighs.

Gwen :She was so aggressive and ignorant when I showed up in the band practice late . She thinks being a superhero is a waste of time . She always thinks highly of herself .

Dante : Gosh , why didn't you tell me this ?

Gwen : I thought you won't believe in me .

Dante : Seriously , I will always believe in you . I realised we both have common things regarding to family and friends . I hope we both can stop all those troubles from hurting us one day .

Gwen hugs Dante.

Gwen : Luckily , I have someone like you to talk to.

Dante : Same here .

Gwen moves back .

Gwen : Anyways, where were we?

Dante : The chorus part of the song.

Gwen and Dante continued to practise their drumming skills.
