With her shy smile and gentle demeanor, she often blended into the background, unnoticed by many. While others sought out the spotlight she found comfort in the shadows, where she could observe the world with keen insight and deep empathy.

He had a reputation for skipping classes, getting into fights, and breaking rules without a second thought. Despite his rebellious exterior, there was an undeniable charm about him that drew people in, like moths to a flame. His wild antics and disregard for authority often landed him in trouble, but he wore it like a badge of honor, unapologetic for his defiance.
