Sharing warmth

During Valerie's first year of high school, she met Max, who originally schooled in a really popular private school. But for some reason, he transferred to her ordinary school.

Valerie went to a normal school. One reason was that she didn't want to be in the same space or building as Lucy. At that time, Lucy's acts were very disgusting and she didn't want to put up with her hypocrisy while studying.

Max got in the same class with her and got all the attention since he was such a handsome guy, always smiling and always having a great day. And thus, he was surrounded by a lot of people who wanted to be his friend, even if they had no idea he was from a rich family.

Valerie hid her identity and wore glasses that changed her eye colors. She couldn't wear lenses because they were uncomfortable and she was scared that some substance would be added to make her go blind. Literally.

That family was very much capable of doing such a thing.
