The morning sun bathed the steps of Maria Piccola middle school in Italy, illuminating the quiet figure of 'Little Miss Perfect' in class 2D. Surrounded by the hum of headphones and the pages of a book, she sat alone, unaware of the strange shift in Pietro’s demeanor since the boys’ vote. The air was thick with the unspoken tension of a fourteen-week countdown. Suddenly, shadows fell across her page as Pietro approached, his presence breaking her solitude. He leaned in, a smirk playing on his lips, his voice cutting through her music with a teasing challenge about her worn book, marking the beginning of a complicated dance.
