Here's a breakdown:
* Internal Conflict: Victor wants to appear cool and sophisticated in front of Teresa, but he lacks confidence and is worried about making a fool of himself. He even lies about speaking French to impress her.
* External Conflict: Victor's attempt to learn French, while well-intentioned, leads to him stumbling through a conversation with Teresa. He ends up making a mistake and accidentally saying "I love you," causing him embarrassment.
Ultimately, the main conflict is Victor's internal struggle to overcome his insecurities and find the courage to be himself around Teresa. This conflict is heightened by the external conflict of his failed attempt to impress her with his "French" skills.
The story highlights the complexities of adolescence, the pressure to fit in, and the awkwardness that often comes with navigating first crushes.
