Chapter 2 - Chapter 3- The Chaos Squad

Three weeks in, Julian, Luca, Riley, Ethan, Mia, and Theo were like a little chaos squad — always together, always teasing, always laughing.

LUCA

Whoa! Careful, Juju!

He bumps Julian gently as they walk. Julian rolls his eyes but can't hide a small smile.

JULIAN

RILEY

ETHAN

MIA

LUCA
