Debate

Ethan decided to take on new challenges at school and in extracurricular activities. He joined a debate team and started attending competitions, finding that he had a knack for public speaking and argumentation. He also started volunteering at a local animal shelter, helping to care for the animals and assist with adoptions.

As he threw himself into these new pursuits, Ethan found that he was growing as a person. He was developing his confidence, learning to think critically, and making new friends who shared his passions.

Luna noticed the changes in Ethan and was impressed by his newfound enthusiasm. She started to see him in a new light, appreciating his dedication and perseverance.

One day, as they were working on a group project together, Luna turned to him with a smile. "You're really amazing, you know that?" she said.

Ethan blushed, feeling a flutter in his chest. "Thanks," he said, trying to play it cool.

Luna leaned in closer. "I think we could be really great together," she said.

Ethan's heart skipped a beat as he looked into her eyes. He knew that he felt the same way.

Kaida walked by, overhearing the conversation. She smiled knowingly and gave them a thumbs-up. "Good luck, guys," she said.

As the semester drew to a close, Ethan felt like he was on top of the world. He had found his passion for debate, made new friends, and was exploring his feelings with Luna.

But just as things were going well, a new challenge emerged. The school announced that they would be hosting a prestigious debate tournament, and Ethan's team was chosen to represent the school. The competition would be fierce, and Ethan knew that he would have to push himself to the limit if they wanted to win.
