It's morning and the two have slept quietly and beautifully, it's the first time they will eat at their home. Lance is getting up and washing his teeth, showering, combing, dressing and preparing breakfast, while Esteban is making his room and doing the same thing as Lance.

"Good morning, how did you sleep?"

"Not bad. What did you make for breakfast?"

"Well, we have it: Chocolate croissants, 2 juices, raspberry pancake and natural tea for relaxation."

"Nice, good appetite."

"Thank you. Does Anabelle send you a message?" Esteban wonders, but Lance shook his head.

"Why did you tell me? I don't know."

"Okay, whatever you say!"

1.5 hours later...

They wait for the girls to come home after housework, but they don't know the way. Anabella never knew they had a home and understood it. Before going to the Formula 1 drivers' house, she watches her cousin meet her mother with a smile.

"Anabella, my sweetie, I have time to see you, your cousin and I decided to have Thibault and his friends come over for coffee at one of Paris's most famous cafes, do you want to come?"

"No, thank you, Mom. Go with your nephew, his friends, and his girlfriend, I'll go out with my friends."

"Interesting, I see you dressed up and put on makeup, are you going somewhere?"

"No, I will go to school, anyway, with a make up removal, because the workouts started before school. I wait for Olivia to go down, but she doesn't pick up her phone, I believe her cellphone battery has dropped. Someone sent me a message: Lance. What he writes:

Don't worry about Olivia because I called her on the phone. Don't leave, wait wherever you are. "

"Who is Lance, a boyfriend? I want to know him."

"He's my friend who comes from Montreal, Canada and lives in Geneva, Switzerland with his parents. Also, he did a lot of fun with Esteban, do you know him?"

"Why not?

"Lance is coming. Hi, Lance, how are you? Do you know my cousin?"

"Hey, Annabelle. Of course, we met at IKEA, remember? Who is she?" Lance kisses Annabelle's cheek and handshaking Gaspard.

"She's my mom, Antoinette. Mum, this is Lance, my Belgian-Canadian friend."

"Nice to meet you, Lance. Long-time to see. My daughter is one of the most excellent students on campus. She wants to become a successful volleyball player. She is Olivia's close friend."

"How do you know Olivia?"

"They met online 2 hours a week, I forced her to study hard and they met via ours. Olivia is a good person, she forced her friends to meet my daughter."

"Where are Olivia's friends?"

"They were studying abroad separately. 3 of her friends were studying in Italy, while 2 of them were studying in New York. My daughter's friends were studying another city like Bordeaux. So, sweetie, I will leave you alone, see you later."

"Lance, where's Esteban? I assumed that you are with him?"

"He returned to his parents' home in Evreux to pay visits, while I'm going out to solve mine and Olivia's French visa problem".

"Okay, Liv where are you? Your phone is out of battery."

"We need to talk, guys. There's a problem."

♡

Lance and Annabella found something strange as Olivia watches 2 girls fighting each other, Lance tries to separate them. One yelled at another for a...man.

"He's mine! My husband is mine, not you mistress"

"No, he loves me and his kids should love me, not that bitch like you"

"My kids need real mother, not the step-mother."

"Eh, eh wtf happened?" Lance stops them and explained to them.

"That whore has a love affair with my husband yesterday. Please help me."

"Don't worry, we are here to explain what happened and we are ready to solve your problem, okay? Deep breath and tell us."

The woman answered all the questions Lance asked her, soon they find out that other people tried to replace her with someone else. Another woman accused her of being her husband's mistress.

"SHUT UP, BITCH. YOU AND YOUR DAUGHTER PENELOPE BULLYING OLIVIA BECAUSE OF HER NATIONALITY" Annabella yells at her while she found out that the woman's husband has an affair with Penelope's mother.

"Who are you, little bitch? Probably, my other daughter, Aimee tried to commit suicide after Thibault called her fat and none of my daughters were able to marry them."

"STOP IT, MRS FAT WOMAN. ANNABELLE IS RIGHT, NONE O YOUR DAUGHTERS WILL MARRY ATHLETES."

"I GIVE UP." The other woman leaves angrily. Lance, Annabelle, and Olivia decided to have a company with her.

"So, Mrs, what's your name? My name is Lance, this is Annabelle and this is Olivia. If you want to meet Esteban, come and visit our house."

"Nice to meet you, guys. My name is Genevieve, Gaspard's mother."

"Aunt, are you fine?"

"Yes, Annabelle, thanks for encouraging me. Why are you here?"

"I want to hang out with my friends, then into the volleyball field. Would you come with us?"

"I have no problem with that. Challenge accepted."

♡

3.5 hours later...
Lance returns to his home when Esteban waited for him. Probably because he visits his parents and that affects his routine. Lance has a surprise though.
"Lance, where were you?"

"I'm going to solve the problems with my residence permit papers, where are you?"

"To my parents because I need to fix things that I don't tell you."

"Well, look at what I did? I shot a video to see it. Do you know this lady?"

"No, why?"

"She's Anabelle's aunt, who was cheating wife because her uncle had sex with his mistress when Gaspard and his twin sisters(Anabelle's cousins) were back from the gym and caught them in leeks. We found them in the morning, it's not the best day we ever thought. Her name is Genevieve."

"Poor, lady. I've seen many cases of quarreling over a man when his wife beat his man's mistress. That is, what to say."

♡

The next day...

The girls visited the volleyball field and they watched names, which were on the list. Fortunately for them, they will play as defenders. It's one of those that will play on the volleyball court. The bad news: Olivia will be the substitute for one of the volleyball players.

"Yes, we are together, finally."

"Perfect, but unfortunately I will be a substitute for one of the volleyball players."

One of the girls asked them:

Anne-Marie is one of Annabelle's best friend since elementary school.

"Girls, we made it. Let's play for the first round, Annabelle, I have a long time to see you again. I missed you so much, who is this girl?"

"She is Olivia, an exchange student from the U.S.A"

"Nice to meet you. I'm glad that you love Paris, one day I will invite you to the party because it's my birthday 2 days after Annabelle's. So happy birthday Annabelle."

"Thanks, girls, I love when you wish me a happy birthday." The girls thank her, but there's a strange thing. Olivia's ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend Penelope with her sister, Aimee and her friends were visiting the girls.

"Wait a minute, who are you?" Olivia asked them while Anabelle with her childhood best friends commented about two sister's weight because they looked fat.

"Who are they, girls?" Delfina, Annabelle's other childhood friend, asked as she learned more about it.

"These are the daughters of my uncle's mistress, who attack my aunt. I will force my cousin to kick them out because I can't stand them."

"My name is Penelope, this is my sister Aimee and this is your ex-boyfriend, David, who officially is my boyfriend. Am I right, sweetie?" Penelope kissed David(Olivia's ex-boyfriend) in front of the girls. Some of them disgusted, other girls were nearly vomiting.

"So, why are you here? Probably you want to impress him? Look at you, you're looking like 12 years old. Nobody will adore you, only your family".

Penelope answered all the questions, while Olivia with her 'new friends approached them.

"Do you think that your body is the only reason David will love you? Sorry sweetie, but this is not a volleyball court for fat girls like you. David, you don't need me now. You are the ugliest person I met in my life."

They leave, while the photographer takes pictures one by one and then they are ready for everything. It is the only university to win volleyball championships, but they have also won silver medals in football. The only one who has stolen the show is Olivia, who is the only reason why she leads them to victory last year, while the coach chose her the last moment the injured player, who is 3 years older than her. She is thrilled to be part of this team.

3 days later...Music starts:

This year's felt like four seasons of winter
And you'd give anything you think to feel the sun
Always reaching climbing
Always second-guessing the timing
But God has a plan a purpose in this
You are His child so don't you forget

Anabelle and Olivia return to Esteban's and Lance's house about what happened 3 days ago. Partying, arguments, university life, volleyball, visa problems, new friends, hangouts, etc. They ate their favorite dinner: Chicken Caprese Salad. They chatted about the new day, new life and of course meeting other people.

He put that hunger in your heart
He put that fire in your soul
His love is the reason
To keep on believing
When you feel like giving up
When you feel like giving in
His love is the reason
To keep on believing we could pull back the curtain of Heaven
We would see His hand on everything
Every hour every minute every second He's always been in it
Don't let a shadow of a doubt take hold
Hold on to what you already know

"Well, girls, how did you go 3 days later? We missed you so much."

"I, Lance and Olivia met my aunt. She was devastated about what happened, she realizes that my uncle was having sex with Penelope's mother. She tried to be the most beautiful girl on campus, but I say to her: Sorry, bitch, but I'm the most popular girl on campus after you have low grades."

He put that hunger in your heart
He put that fire in your soul
His love is the reason
To keep on believing
When you feel like giving up
When you feel like giving in
His love is the reason
To keep on believing
It's the reason
It's the reason
His love is the reason

He's the peace in the madness

That you can't explain
He's the hope in the heartbreak
The rest in the suffering
He's closer than the air you breathe
From the start to the end to the in-between
Don't you dare doubt even for a minute
He started in you
Yeah, He's gonna finish

Annabelle wanted to finish her sentences, but she wants more things to solve. 

"But the only reason is I will take my revenge back and by afternoon, we were visiting my uncle's home and I will tell him everything about it." She said, while Olivia, Lance&Esteban decided to visisted her uncle on Sunday.

"Who says that? Is there anything else we can do for your uncle?" Esteban said while Lance gave him a home address.

"This is her home address, Mrs. Genevieve said she'd be there at home on Sunday because she doesn't work on Sundays."

"Okay".

They agree whenever they obey their own rules. 

"Cheers,guys. And welcome to France".

"Cheers."

He put that hunger in your heart
He put that fire in your soul
His love is the reason
To keep on believing
When you feel like giving up
When you feel like giving in
His love is the reason
To keep on believing
It's the reason
It's the reason
To keep on believing
