Stella decides to dress Axel in a pastel pink dress, insisting he’ll look adorable in it. Despite his protests, Axel is shocked when he sees himself in the full-body mirror she brings over. The reflection staring back at him isn’t the tough boy he used to be, but a shy, undeniably cute girl. His voice softens as he nervously admits how feminine he looks, surprising even himself. Stella, ever playful, delights in his embarrassment, pointing out how perfectly the dress suits him.
When Axel shyly asks if Jett might like him this way, Stella seizes the opportunity to tease him relentlessly. She jokes that Jett wouldn’t just like him—he’d fall head over heels in love. Axel’s face turns crimson as he whines and pouts, trying to deny her words, though a part of him wonders if she might be right. Stella’s teasing pushes Axel closer to accepting his girly new self, leaving him flustered yet oddly warm inside.
