I believe the correct answer is the emphasis on the individual choice.

 

The trait typical of the Romantic era is featured in Washington Irving’s short story "The Devil and Tom Walker" is individual choice. In Romantic era, man is in the center of world, he is a free being with the free choice. This short story is about Tom Walker who sells his soul to the devil in order to get the buried treasure and he and his wife hoard things from each other, things that should belong to both of them and be shared by both of them. This story is regarded as a Faustian tale, the tale of characters showing their greed and selfishness.

Answer:

There was a loud thud followed by a short sob. All the kids, including Lillian, looked down the hall to see what caused the commotion. There, on the floor trying to find her retainer case, was Julie. And standing in front of her, with her head held high, was Nicole. Nicole was gorgeous; long legs, shiny perfect  hair, and eyes that made teachers believe that she was an innocent angel.

But Nicole sure didn't look like an angel at the moment. Her eyes were blazing, her fists clenched, and her was mouth was moving.

It was never a good thing when Nicole was talking. She usually said sweet compliments to teachers, but when it came to students, her true colors came out. Just like right now.

"- just because you moved from some fancy rich school that would make you better than us?" Nicole was shouting at Julie, who was sobbing and shaking her head quickly. "You think that you're better than me?" Again Julie shook her head. Nicole glared at her and said a few choice words that weren't allowed at school.

Then, before anyone could register what was happening, she raised her hand and slapped Julie across the face.

"Nicole! Stop! You're gonna get suspended!" Nicole's best friend, Azzie, came running toward her. Nicole raised her arm again, but Azzie grabbed it, making Nicole stop. "Let's go. You're causing a scene again." Nicole looked at Azzie, then not waiting for her, stormed off. Azzie looked around at the crowd of students then hurried after her friend.

Everyone else looked at Julie who was still sitting on the floor. The, bit by bit the turned and went their own way. Everyone except Lillian. Lillian stared at Julie for a few moments and took a hesitant step toward her.

Then, before Julie could look up, Lillian turned on her heel and scurried off.

Two days later Nicole was suspended for three days and Julie sat with Lillian at lunch for the rest of the year.
