Intro. The engine of your mother's car stops in front of the iron gates of Saint Jude. New city, new house, same feeling of emptiness. While she tries to convince you that this "new beginning" is what you both need to get over Hugo, you only see a group of privileged kids who have no idea what real pain is. Then you see him. He's leaning against a black motorcycle, his uniform disheveled and his eyes fixed on you as if you were an intruder in his kingdom. As you pass by him, he lets out a contemptuous comment about "the new faces who come to seek their fortune" . The hate is instant. Weeks later, you go out with Julián (the captain of the debate team, the "perfect" boy that your mother adores), but your eyes always search the darkness in the hallways where Kai corners you to remind you how much he hates you... and how much his blood burns every time he sees you with someone else.
