Episode 2:Revenge time

Ava:(smirking) "You'll pay for what you said now, Oliver. Mark my words."

Oliver: (sneering) "Oh, I'm shaking in my boots, Ava. Bring it on."

Mia: Guys it is not up to this."

Ava: Stay out of this Mia.

Oliver: Mia just go okay?

Mia: Guys don't beat each other up okay?

Ava: I don't know. We might be in the hospital.

Mia: Guys( l left them alone)

Ava: (anger rising) "You think you're so smart, don't you? But I'll take you down.(looking at oliver).

Oliver:(taunting) "I'm not worried. You're just a joke, Ava."

Ava: (plotting) "We'll see about that. You've been messing with the wrong person."

Oliver:(oblivious) "I'm not afraid of you, Ava. You're just a nuisance."

Ava: (scheming) "You'll find out soon enough. Just you wait."

Oliver:(dismissively) "I'm not waiting for anything you have to offer, Ava."

Ava: (smiling sweetly) "Oh, but you'll be waiting. And when you find out what I've done, you'll be begging for mercy."

Oliver:(rolling his eyes) "I doubt it."

Days pass, and Ava executes her plan. Oliver discovers what's been done to him and realizes it was Ava behind it.

Oliver: (furious) "Ava, you're going to regret what you've done. You've crossed a line."

Ava: (smirking) "Oh, I'm shaking in my boots, Oliver. You think you can take me down?"

Oliver:(anger rising) "You have no idea what I'm capable of. You'll pay for this, Ava. Mark my words."

Ava:(taunting) "Oh, I'm so scared. Bring it on, Oliver."

Oliver: (plotting) "You think you're clever, don't you? But I'll show you what clever really looks like. You'll be the one begging for mercy."

Ava:(confidently) "I'm not afraid of you, Oliver. You can't touch me."

Oliver: (smiling coldly) "Oh, but I can. And I will. You just wait."

The revenge cycle continues, with each trying to outdo the other. But amidst the chaos, they start to notice something else - a spark of attraction that neither can ignore.

Ava: (catching herself staring at Oliver) "What am I doing? I hate him."

Oliver: (catching himself staring at Ava) "What's wrong with me? I despise her."

As they continue their game of revenge, the tension between them builds, and they start to realize that their feelings for each other might be more than just hate.

Ava: (whispering to herself) Maybe I'm not just trying to hurt him. Maybe I'm trying to get his attention.

Oliver: (whispering to himself) Maybe I'm not just trying to get revenge. Maybe I'm trying to get closer to her.

Episode 3: Moment of truth

In the corridor:

Ava and Oliver stood facing each other, their eyes blazing with intensity.

Ava: You always think you're right, don't you? You always think you can just walk all over me and get away with it.

Oliver:I'm just calling it like I see it, Ava. You're always so quick to jump down my throat.

Ava:That's because you're always pushing my buttons. You think you're so clever, but really, you're just a jerk.

Oliver:And you're just a spoiled brat. You can't handle the fact that someone might not agree with you.

The argument escalated, their voices rising as they stood nose to nose. Suddenly, Oliver's hand shot out, and he pinned Ava against the wall, his face inches from hers.

Ava's eyes flashed with anger, but as she looked up at Oliver, she saw something there that gave her pause. A spark of attraction, perhaps? A flicker of desire?

Oliver's voice dropped to a low growl.You drive me crazy, Ava. You always have.

Ava's heart pounded in her chest as she met Oliver's gaze. For a moment, they just stared at each other, the tension between them palpable.Ava then pushed Oliver away.

Ava:(looking confused) Get away from me.

Ava ran ot from there leaving Oliver confused

Oliver: What's wrong with me? Why am I feeling this way? I hate this girl.....

Episode 4: working together. Moment of truth 2.

Mrs Karen:I will group you guys 2 in a group for your project so you will work together and submit by the end of the term.

Ava and Oliver were assigned to work on a group project together.

Ava:I don't see why we have to work together. We'd be better off alone.

Oliver:Because the teacher thinks we can learn from each other, apparently.

Ava:But still I can work alone without your help at all

As they began to work on the project, their banter and disagreements turned into heated discussions. However, amidst the tension, they started to notice each other's strengths and weaknesses.

Ava found herself admiring Oliver's strategic thinking, while Oliver was impressed by Ava's creativity. Their interactions became more nuanced, with moments of unexpected kindness and understanding.

One day, as they worked together, Ava caught Oliver's eye, and they shared a fleeting moment of connection. Ava felt a spark of attraction, and to her surprise, Oliver looked away, seemingly flustered.

As the project progressed, Ava and Oliver's mutual dislike slowly turned into a begrudging respect, and eventually, attraction. However, Oliver refused to acknowledge his feelings.

Oliver:I'm just doing this project for the grade, Ava. Don't read into it.

Ava:I'm not reading into anything, Oliver. I'm just stating the obvious – we make a good team.

Oliver:If you say so,so be it.

Ava:Whatever.

Oliver's denial stemmed from his pride and fear of vulnerability. He didn't want to admit his feelings to Ava or himself, fearing it would compromise his reputation or make him vulnerable to heartbreak.

As the project nears completion, Ava and Oliver's feelings become harder to ignore. Will Oliver finally acknowledge his attraction to Ava, or will he continue to deny it?

Episode 5: Moment of truth 3

*Ava's heart was racing as she looked into Oliver's eyes. She knew she couldn't deny the feelings between them any longer.*

*Ava:* (softly) "Okay, fine. I feel it too."

*Oliver's face lit up with a smile as he took a step closer to Ava. He reached out and gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, sending shivers down her spine.*

*Just as things were getting intense, Ava's phone buzzed with a text from her best friend, Mia.*

*Mia:* (texting) "Hey, girl! What's going on? I've been trying to reach you all day."

*Ava:* (texting) "Hey, Mia! I'm just out for a walk. What's up?"

*Mia:* (texting) "I heard some juicy gossip about Oliver. Want to meet up and spill the tea?"

*Ava hesitated, not wanting to leave Oliver's side. But Mia's curiosity was piqued, and she wanted to know what was going on.*

*Ava:* (texting) "Okay, meet me at the coffee shop tomorrow. I'll fill you in."

*Oliver raised an eyebrow as Ava showed him the texts.*

*Oliver:* (teasingly) "Looks like someone's eager to get the scoop."

*Ava:* (laughing) "That's just Mia. She's always nosy."

*oliver:* " Mia right? That girl (he laughed)."

*The next day, Ava met Mia at the coffee shop, eager to share her story. But as they sat down, Mia dropped a bombshell.*

*Mia:* (serious) "Ava, I have something to tell you. Something about Oliver."

*Ava:* (curiously) "What is it?"

*Mia:* (hesitating) "I don't know if I should be telling you this, but... Oliver has a bit of a reputation."

*Ava's ears perked up, intrigued. What could Mia possibly mean?*

*Mia:* (serious) "Let's just say Oliver's not as perfect as he seems. He's got a history of playing games with people's emotions."

*Ava's eyes widened in surprise. She hadn't expected this.*

*Ava:* (defensively) "That's not true. Oliver's not like that."

*Mia:* (skeptical) "Oh, really? Then why did he break up with Rachel last year? She was totally in love with him."

*Ava's mind was racing. She didn't know what to believe. Was Oliver really the bad guy Mia was making him out to be?*

*Mia:* (concerned) "Ava, I just don't want you to get hurt. You're already vulnerable, and Oliver's not the kind of guy who deserves you."

*Ava felt a pang of uncertainty. Was she really falling for someone who might not be good for her?*

*Just then, Oliver walked into the coffee shop, looking handsome as ever. Ava's heart skipped a beat as their eyes met.*

*Oliver:* (smiling) "Hey, Ava. What's going on?"

*Ava:* (nervously) "Just catching up with Mia. What's up with you?"

*Oliver:* (oblivious) "Not much. Just grabbing a coffee before class."

*Mia shot Ava a knowing look, as if to say "I told you so." But Ava wasn't convinced. She wanted to believe that Oliver was different.*

*As they chatted, Ava couldn't help but notice the way Oliver interacted with Mia. He was charming and friendly, but there was something beneath the surface that Ava couldn't quite put her finger on.*

*Was Oliver really the bad guy Mia thought he was, or was there more to the story? Ava wasn't sure, but she was determined to find out.*

Episode 6: Moment of truth 4

*Ava's curiosity got the better of her, and she decided to dig deeper into Oliver's past. She asked Mia if she knew anything about Oliver's relationship with Rachel.*

*Mia:* (hesitantly) "I don't know if I should be telling you this, but... I think Rachel was really hurt by Oliver. She wouldn't talk about it much, but I know she was devastated when they broke up."

*Ava's mind was racing. Why would Oliver break up with someone like Rachel? She seemed perfect for him.*

*Ava:* (determined) "I need to know more about what happened between Oliver and Rachel. Do you think she'd talk to me?"

*Mia:* (thoughtfully) "I'm not sure. Rachel's been pretty private about her personal life since the breakup. But I can try to set up a meeting if you want."

*Ava nodded, her curiosity piqued. She was determined to get to the bottom of the mystery surrounding Oliver's past.*

*Later that day, Mia arranged a meeting between Ava and Rachel. Ava was nervous but determined to learn more about Oliver's past.*

*Rachel:* (cautiously) "So, what do you want to know about Oliver?"

*Ava:* (honestly) "I just want to understand what happened between you two. Mia said you were really hurt by him."

*Rachel took a deep breath before launching into her story.*

*Rachel:* (sadly) "Oliver and I were together for a year. Everything seemed perfect, but... he had trust issues. He was always jealous and possessive. I tried to work through it with him, but... it just got too much. He broke up with me out of nowhere, saying he wasn't ready for a relationship."

*Ava's eyes widened in surprise. This wasn't the Oliver she thought she knew.*

*Ava:* (thoughtfully) "I had no idea. He seems so different now."

*Rachel:* (bitterly) "People can change, but... I don't know if he's changed for real. Be careful around him, Ava."

*Ava nodded, her mind racing with questions. Was Oliver really capable of change, or was he just playing games with her emotions?*

*Ava couldn't shake off the feeling that there was more to Oliver's story. She decided to confront him about what Rachel had told her.*

*Oliver:* (defensively) "What's going on, Ava? Why are you asking me all these questions?"

*Ava:* (calmly) "I just want to understand you better. Rachel told me about your past relationship. She said you had trust issues and were possessive."

*Oliver's expression changed, and for a moment, Ava saw a glimmer of pain in his eyes.*

*Oliver:* (hesitantly) "That was a long time ago. I've grown a lot since then."

*Ava:* (encouragingly) "I'm not judging you, Oliver. I just want to understand what happened."

*Oliver took a deep breath before launching into his side of the story.*

*Oliver:* (painfully) "My parents' divorce was messy. My dad cheated on my mom, and it destroyed her. I grew up with a lot of anger and resentment towards him. When I was in a relationship, those feelings resurfaced, and I didn't know how to deal with them."

*Ava's heart went out to Oliver. She could see the pain in his eyes, and she believed him.*

*Ava:* (softly) "I'm sorry, Oliver. That must have been really tough for you."

*Oliver:* (gratefully) "Thanks, Ava. It means a lot to me that you're willing to listen."

*As they talked, Ava realized that Oliver was more complex than she had initially thought. He wasn't just a one-dimensional bad boy; he was a multifaceted person with his own struggles and demons.*

*But just as Ava was starting to feel like she understood Oliver, he dropped a bombshell.*

*Oliver:* (serious) "Ava, there's something else I need to tell you. Something that might change everything."

*Ava's curiosity was piqued. What could Oliver possibly have to reveal?*

Episode 7: Moment of truth 5:Feelings reveal.

*Ava's curiosity was piqued. What could Oliver possibly have to reveal?*

*Oliver:* (taking a deep breath) "I've been wanting to tell you something for a while now. I think I might have feelings for you."

*Ava:* (surprised) "Feelings?"

*Oliver:* (nervously chuckling) "Yeah, I know it's probably not the best timing, but I couldn't help how I feel. You're an amazing person, Ava, and I love spending time with you."

*Ava:* (smiling softly) "Oliver, I...I didn't expect you to say that."

*Oliver:* (looking at her with hope) "I know it's a lot to take in. But I wanted to be honest with you. I value our friendship, and I don't want anything to change between us. But I couldn't keep my feelings inside anymore."

*Ava:* (pausing, considering her response) "Oliver, I care about you deeply too. But I need some time to think about this. Can we talk more about it later?"

*Oliver:* (nodding understandingly) "Of course, Ava. Take all the time you need. I just wanted to be honest with you."

*Ava:* (smiling) "Thank you for being honest with me, Oliver. I appreciate it."

*Oliver:* (smiling back) "I'm glad I could tell you. Let's just take things as they come, okay?"

*Ava:* (nodding) "Okay."
