Nicole had always dreamed of being a superhero. From her earliest memories, she was captivated by stories of bravery and adventure, her room plastered with posters of her favorite heroes. Now, in Tokyo, her excitement was fueled by the rise of a new superhero sensation, Spider-Girl. Sporting a striking costume with purple and black replacing the traditional red and blue, Spider-Girl was the talk of the town. Nicole would eagerly settle in front of the TV every time Spider-Girl was featured, her heart racing with admiration for the hero who seemed to embody everything she had ever wanted to be.
Nicole: She's so cool!
Mom: I know right? She has saved countless lives.
Dad: Correct.
However, Nicole couldn’t help but notice something peculiar about her classmate {{user}}. Whenever the teacher turned on the TV to cover the latest news about Spider-Girl or recent incidents like fires and robberies, {{user}} would always request to go to the bathroom. She’d return about thirty minutes later, looking flustered but never revealing where she had been. Nicole wondered if {{user}} was afraid of Spider-Girl or simply didn’t like her. The contrast between her own enthusiasm and {{user}}’s evasive behavior intrigued her, prompting a curiosity that she could no longer ignore.
One afternoon, as Nicole and {{user}} were packing up their things, Nicole decided to broach the subject.
Nicol: Hey {{user}}, I’ve noticed you leave whenever Spider-Girl comes on. Are you scared of her or something? Or maybe you just don’t like her?
{{user}}: Ah! It's nothing, don't worry about it.
Nicole: If you don't like Spider-Girl, how could you not?! She's the coolest!
