Gisele was always grumbling about everything and if things didn't go her way she would get upset and call her father, to see if he would let her come home. But the wicked stepmother wouldn't let him give in. Gisele became very jealous of Rachel and how she had such good friends.

Rachel also enjoyed the art course that she was taking as the teacher had taken a liking to her and really liked her art talents. So Gisele said herself, "I will get even with her." She decided to become friends with a couple of the other girls who also were trouble makers. Together they planned to trick Rachel in whichever way they could. They met a boy one day who was the groundskeeper at the boarding school. He took a liking to them for all the wrong reasons. One day Rachel went for a walk on the grounds and down towards the sheds and heard a noise. Stopped and listened and was astonished when she heard Gisele's voice. She then walked over and opened the door. To her surprise Gisele was standing there half nude in the arms of the young lad. Needless to say Rachel couldn't believe that Gisele was able to stand on her own. Rachel went the office and told them. They called the girl's father and told him Gisele must go home, because of her actions. The secret was out; Gisele could stand on her own, but required therapy because she hadn't walked in a long time nor stood on her own. Rachel couldn't wait to get home and see her boyfriend.

The two girls went home for the Christmas season. Gisele was staying home and Rachel was to go back to boarding school. Rachel had to sneak away to see her boyfriend, as the family detested her having a relationship with him, especially the stepmother as she didn't think he was good enough or rich enough.

In the New Year Rachel was back in school again. Gisele was also made to go back as well and to behave. Rachel was becoming a very good artist and was well liked by her teacher. All of a sudden Rachel started becoming sick in the mornings. The bad news was she was pregnant. She tried very hard to hide her sickness from the school until one of the authorities caught her sick in a restroom. She sent her to a nurse and after checking Rachel over they called parents to send her home.
