  Next day I saw Max wearing the same shirt which Josh had purchased. I was sure that Josh was dating Max. Chris went to warned Max that Josh is not  good.

  She didn't listen to him and said, “You should stay away from us. We are opponents. Josh and I teamed up to defeat you so you should worry about yourself.”

  It was the new plan. Josh was trying to let Chris out of the competition. Max was just a bait. He had brainwashed Max. She was trying to get Chris out of the competition. 

  Chris was sad. He said, “Maybe Josh will win this time too.” I tried to console him by saying, “Don't worry. You are good at studies. We just need to tell everyone that you can be a great class president.” 

  Julia said, “Maybe you should make a list.” I asked her, “What list?” Julia answered, “A list where Chris will do everything that will be in the list.” 

  Chris replied, “For instance, making a new court for basketball as it is old.” I said, “Nice start.” Chris and I went towards the sports stadium.  He was making the list. I went into the canteen to buy a coffee for him. When I returned back I saw Josh arguing with Chris. 

  I heard Chris saying, “Do what you can do?” Josh turned back and went away. He didn't notice that I was behind him. I asked Chris, “What did I miss?” 

  He said, “Josh happened. Max told her that I told her to stay away from him. And also that he is not a good person.” I said, “Don't worry. He will not win.” 

  I didn't know what to do. I mean Josh does not have a heart of stone like he shows it to everyone. He has a soft side too. He apologised to me even though I didn't want to see him. He made efforts and took care of me when I was hurt. 

  He saw the minute details of me such as when I was hurt which I didn't even notice. He didn't have a heart of stone. Was he really a heart-breaker?
