Tennis Chib members callied to support each other, and Elie was

“Thank you all for coming to help she said, clearly touched.

“Hey, wrir all

tay gratefial.

we’re all part of the same club. When someone needs help, we all chip in—it’s no big ideal.”

⠀ “Excly! We mishd’ve been here even earlier if we’d known sooner.

Elsie nodded appreciatively, barely able to express how much their support meant to her. But her deepest thanks went to Eliana, who had thought everything through with remarkable foresight

Stella glanced at Eliana with admiration. “El, you’ve thought of everything Without everyone here, we’d have lost today”

Thana shot her a confident wink “Losing? Not a chang

After all, i was Eliana who’d arranged for the barbecue stand, which meant she could also call in a favor and ask Mr and Mrs Morris to pack up and leave at any time. Without that stand, the dance clubs would have no easy sounce of free water bottles for their collection.

Father, the dance club had managed to grab two batches of bottles, just enough to edge into the lead. But Eliana had held onto her trump card Knowing more Tennis Club members would arrive soon. She’d let the dance clubs savor their lead for now, their smiles would quickly fade.

Lily dragged over a trash bin and ripped it spilling water bottles onto the ground. The dance club members dashed forward, but the Tennis Clube was quicker. They had honed their speed and reflexes all those hours of practice, giving them a clear edge.

The Tennis Club reached the bottles first, stuffing them into bags as the dance club looked on, clearly frustrated. A few Tennis Club members couldn’t resist tossing out smug comments.

“With speed like that, why are they even bothering? They should throw in the towel”

“They couldn’t even catch up if they were being handed free food!”

Laughter broke out among the Tennis Club.

The dance club girls whipped around, shooting them annoyed glares.

“What are you staring at Never seen a real athleie before? one of the Tennis boys quipped with a grin.

“Oh, please—we ve seen

we’ve seen athletes, just not anyone this full of himself!” a dance club girl retorted, rolling her eyes. “Let’s go, girls

The dance club gathered to regroup, hoping for better luck on the next round. But each time Lily dumped more bottles, the Tennis Club swept in and claimed them. Some guys stomped the bottles flat before tossing them into bags, leaving the dancers no chance.

After two more rounds, Elana’s pile of bottles had once again surged past Yulla’s. Yulila watched belplessly, practically hopping in frustration as she saw her team falling further behind.

“What are we going to do At this rate, we’ll lose, and only half an hour is left Willow exchanged a look with Wendy.

Physically, the girls couldn’t match the guys strength and speed, and going head–to–head would only leave them empty–handed again and again.

Willow’s eyes lit up as an idea sparked. Lowering her voice, she whispered, “Come here. I’ve got a plan…”

Stella was busy counting bottles when she saw them huddling and muttering in low voices. She didn’t need to hear the details to know they were plotting sumrithing

Eli, they’re probably cooking up some scheme again,” she said, glancing sideways.

Elana looked in Willow’s direction and shrugged. “Doesn’t matter. Whatever they try, we’ll handle it as it comes. Bottles matter here–as long as we collect enough, Else’s boyfriend can get that penalty lifted.”

Willow wouldn’t just sit back and accept losing without a fight; that much was certain.

Elsie overheard Eliana’s calm assurance and turned to her, her face filled with gratitude. “Eliana, don’t hesitate to ask if you ever need my help. do everything I can, no matter what.”

Eliana smiled faintly and replied casually. Didn’t you already help me last time, Elsie? No need to overthink about it.”

Despite her words, Elsie couldn’t shake the feeling that the scales were far from balanced. The investigation during the Campus

had technically been her responsibility. Yet, what Eliana had done today–organizing the stand at the school gates and rallying the club members to help–far outweighed her effort. Elie knew this was a favor she couldn’t leave unpaid in the future.

Ten minutes later, Lily arrived with another batch of bottles. The dance club girls charged forward before the bottles hit the ground. This time, they weren’t rushing for the bottles but for the Tennis Club boys.

A portion of the dance club ran straight at the boys, throwing their arms around them and shouting at the top of their lungs, Harassment Help. they’re harassing ust

The Tennis boys froze in shock, caught off guard by the bold tactic. In that brief moment of confusion, the rest of the dance club darted forward, scooping up as many bottles as possible before running off,

By the time the Tennis boys snapped out of it, more than half the bottles had already disappeared.

“That has to be Willow’s dirty little trick!” Stella exclaimed, outraged.

I can’t believe they’d

w just to win a game. It’s despicable one of the boys muttered angrily.

Eliana lowered her lashes thoughtfully. It was a ruthless tactic–but also undeniably compelling
