Nolan simply snorted inwardly. “Are you doubting a student mark? I really didn't expect a teacher to think too lowly of a student.” He said, casually.Mr Kay laughed, mockingly. “Do you think of yourself as a student, huh? I asked the other teachers when I marked your text paper about your performance in the class. They said you barely passed the seventy percent score, so how can you get almost a full mark in my test!” Nolan glanced at the other teachers bitterly. Of course he knows he barely got full marks before, and the reason is obvious, it's because he's always being delayed from having his exams. Most times, he's mostly given nothing more than five minutes to answer over a hundred questions. Who gets full marks in such a situation?!He faced the teacher, with a stern expression. *Are you saying just because I've never gotten almost full marks, I can't get full marks again. Isn't there a thing known as improvement in academics?” “Yes there's, but not in your situation. I fully
Teacher Kay noticed what she wanted to do, he quickly stepped forward and held her. “You don't need to flare up on an ordinary student.” He muttered,The female teacher could only nod in agreement. Flaring up would only result in her being more embarrassed.She angrily stood aside, and waited silently.Nolan smiled lightly at her obedience. He expected to keep being unreasonable.Everyone remained silent, including those teachers that joined. Regularly, they would keep stealing glances at Nolan in disdain, but they didn't say anything.Throughout all their secret disdainful glances, Nolan saw them, but he ignored it, as though it matters less to him.Two minutes later, everyone was already getting impatient. Teacher Kay was also getting impatient, but he needed to wait for Nolan to also follow along. Only God knows what Nolan might say to the principal.“Didn't you say you're here to see the principal? Go ahead and see him, stop making it wait here in vain.” The female teacher said,
“He really must have yelled at teacher Kay.”“But why doesn't it seem like someone that has just been caught cheating?”Everyone also turned to look at Nolan's expression well. While scrutinizing Nolan, they didn't seem to see any depressed emotions from Nolan.“That's strange. Why's Nolan being so unaffected? His eyes didn't show sadness.”They were all expecting by the time Nolan returns, he would be in pain and embarrassment would have been dyed on his face. How would they have expected his facial look to be unusually calm?The whispers and gossip came on going for a long time, with Nolan's eyes closed. The time they finally stopped gossiping, was when the next teacher walked in. “Good Day students?” The teacher greeted, solemnly.“Good Day teacher.” All the students all echoed their greetings together.The teacher wrote some things on the board, before returning her attention back to the students. “We'll be having a test now.”The words of the teacher came as a shock to the stud
“That teacher Kay is really stupid! How dare he defame you!” Milo was the first who busted out, looking angry.“It's okay now. Everything has been settled.” Nolan wasn't interested in speaking about this morning incident.Aside from the fact that teacher Kay got sacked, he mentioned every other thing that happened. “It's a good thing that you were sensible enough to record your conversation together.” Chris said,Nolan rolled his eyes, “are you trying to say I've not always been sensible, huh?”“Mm,” Chris feigned a thinking expression. “maybe yes.” Nolan throws his pillow at him from his side.“Argh.” Chris whimpered.The others in the room laughed.It was at that point that Milo noticed Desmond, who was standing quietly.“Hello everyone.” Desmond greeted, slowly.The four roommates all turned to Nolan. “Who's this?” They all remembered Nolan was the last to enter, so Nolan must have something to do with this person.Nolan smacked his head lightly, as he seemed to have forgotten a
The girl on glass simply lowered her head, while being immersed with shyness.She never expected, she would call out her school crush in public.“Oh my, thank God Davis isn't here!” She had a glance through the hall, and didn't see any sight of Davis at all.By this time, Chris, Milo and Chandler had already returned back to their seats.With excitement in his eyes, Milo spoke. “Isn't the girl on glass in our class? I never expected such a quiet girl crush to be Davis.”The others laughed, in agreement.Chandler turned to Nolan, and asked. “Do you know Davis?”He had asked aloud, due to the fact that he saw Nolan quiet, and not saying anything.Nolan shook his head, “uh, I don't think I know who Davis is.” When Nolan had heard Davis name on everyone lip, he knew Davis must be popular. However, it wasn't everyone he knew; he was mostly on His part time work, so how could he possibly know every popular guy in the school.“Oh,” Chandler gasped under, he didn't urge further, rather he ex
Desmond lowered his head, in embarrassment. He didn't know how to respond to Nolan.It was true he also believed Nolan was sad. However, he didn't want to say anything to spoil Nolan's mood further.With a paused lip, he remained silent, before finally saying. “Uh, it's not that I feel you're sad, but it's not really necessary for you to remain here. Besides, I feel the game is getting boring. We should just leave.” He could only convince Nolan. Nolan gave an exasperated sigh. “You don't need to worry.” He assured him, slowly. “I'm perfectly fine.”Desmond pouted his lip, without saying any other thing again.The others at the table weren't really bothered about Nolan. Although they were inwardly concerned, Nolan assurment made their mind a little at ease.The students' attention was all on Darcy. Meanwhile, Hansel wasn't finding this funny. He wondered why such a question would be given to Darcy.His hands were squeezed in a fist, as he complained. “What exactly do they mean by as
In a matter of seconds, soft murmurs permeated the hall, momentarily catching everyone off guard. However, they quickly regained their composure, unable to resist the urge to whisper."Why is he even here? Shouldn't he be back in his dorm?”“If I refuse to admit that I'm not surprised to see him, then I'm sure you all will stone me to hell.” Hearing those last words, all of them busted out in unison laughter.“That's it. Who amongst us isn't surprised to see him here. It's really incredible.” The sarcastic tone in those words wasn't hidden at all.More and more words sounded in the hall. Darcy merely remained standing, obviously not having the intention of stopping them.Before now, just like the others, she was stunned when she saw Nolan. Since that incident at the mall, Darcy has never been at rest, as she was fully in thought about what Hansel has told her.“Hey, it's enough. I don't think we should be disrupting the game. We're all matured, right?” Celina spoke, clearly.Even if
Darcy paused silently, her lips still, as she carefully contemplated. Her gaze swept around the hall, observing everyone immersed in their phones."Why is everyone so engrossed in their screens?" She repeated her question, yet received no response, only lingering stares at the devices.A wave of disappointment washed over Darcy as she noticed even Hansel, absorbed in his phone."Hansel, what has captured your attention?" She attempted to soften her voice.Upon hearing her inquiry, Hansel lifted his head from his device, offering no verbal response, just a silent gaze.A bad feeling crept in Darcy's mind instantly. She couldn't help but feel that something wasn't right at all. But what could that be?She carefully inquired, while trying to maintain her sweet voice at the same time. “Hansel, why are you being silent? C'mon, talk to me.”She had always made sure to speak all sweetly to Hansel at all times, so acting all sweet wasn't abnormal.The person she wasn't expecting to speak to d
