In the City of Whales, one of its college, there's Amal - a girl with a name that means action. She's not the friendliest; in fact, she's downright rude. She picks fights with almost every girl, because of some bad experiences with a few mean ones.

Amal is a star student, but her attitude towards her classmates is so far complex. She doesn't feel bad about it, though. In her mind, they deserve it. Her past has made her see everyone as a potential enemy, and she's not holding back. This is the storm that twists around Amal, leaving  regret for some, and confusion for others.

In the new college, Amal feels like an outsider. While other girls make groups, she just focuses on studying. Most girls are from the same city, so they have their own groups, but Amal didn't get into all that drama.

One morning in class, a girl who thinks she is super smart starts teasing Amal. "Why so serious, Amal? Did a bomb hit your hair? You're so weird." But Amal doesn't let it bother her. She stays focused on her studies, ignoring the unnecessary comments.
The girl's words slices through the air.
"What's with your attitude, Amal? Are you the daughter of a landlord or some rich business person? No friends yet? Guess no one wants to be your friend with that attitude. You deserve it; it's been a month, and you're still friendless."

Amal's face turns red, the anger within her intensifying. Her fists clench, but she manages to restrain herself, offering the teasing girl a fierce stare before rolling her eyes away. The girl finds amusement in getting under Amal's skin, finding it captivating to see her like this.

Girl continues her taunts. "You can join me and hang out whenever you want. I might not be super friendly, but at least I'm not like you, Amal. Change your behavior."

Amal, feels frustration, grapples with the urge to explode, yet she holds back, maintaining control in the face.

In silence, Amal rises from her seat and left the class. Instead of engaging in the ongoing drama, she finds solace in the company of nature. Most of her time spends alone, lost in thoughts.

When other girls approached her, Amal simply gets up and moves away. She cherishes those solitary moments, finding peace in her own company. While she excelled in studies, the journey is just beginning, and her educational background had its challenges. She faces the struggle to overcome her weaknesses, striving to build a stronger foundation for herself.

Amal finds peace in her admiration for a particular teacher, Hanna. It's not a romantic connection, but one of deep respect and affection. Amal is drawn to Hanna's words, feeling as if they are tailored just for her. She openly expresses her admiration for Hanna, especially when the gang of girls, lead by the smart girl.

Teacher Hanna's strong influence over the gang girls creates tension, as they can't confront her directly.

Amal, appearing strong on the surface, fears for internal sensitivities and insecurities. She presents herself well, enjoying nature and indulging in food, yet she senses that something crucial is missing in her life.
