Plot
Yvette (Enno) is literally a faint-hearted schoolgirl songster whose poetic soul makes her the apple of her mother's eye and popular throughout the student body. Overexerting herself while performing at a school concert, Yvette collapses and is sent to the sick bay. Reviving with her best friend Wendy (Hannah Han Lin) by her side, the two schoolgirls witness the arrival of fellow student Jimmy (Bryant Chang from "Eternal Summer") and his beloved Miss Xiu (Ke Huanju Ke). Miss Xiu tends to Jimmy's bloodied hand, which is studded with glass shards following a tantrum punch through a windowpane. The comely teacher has had to end her affair with Jimmy or lose her job.
Miss Xiu is prepared to move on, but the smitten schoolboy is going through the emotional ringer. All of this makes Jimmy oblivious to the interest of girls his own age. Wendy is attracted to the lovestruck boy, but will clearly go with soccer obsessed Japanese exchange student Akira (Dean Fujioka) if he makes his move first.
