Paula and Heaven became friends after that incident until they reached high school. They were always together and Paula would regularly sleep over in Heaven's place. Heaven wasn't rich, but they live a comfortable life, unlike Paula's family, who could barely get by every day.
The two girls had gotten so close that Heaven's father had treated Paula as his daughter as well. Heaven's mother was nowhere to be found. According to Heaven, her mother died when she was still young because of an illness, leaving her and her father.
Everything was great and all until they became juniors.
Despite their deep friendship, Paula noticed that people treated them differently. Heaven was popular in school because of her beauty and approachable aura; she was also an honor roll student and a part of the student government.
Meanwhile, Paula was just… a student.
