Ash, caught off guard by the question, hesitated. "Won? What do you—"

Without hesitation, Ash responded with a confidence that seemed to solidify the air between them. "Yeah, I'd win. And we will get our revenge for what he did. Not just to my pupils but also for your boyfriend." 

"I imagine your boyfriend also feels the same way, though, to some degree," Ash remarked, her tone carrying a blend of empathy and understanding.
