I bang my head against Zaarib's back while whining quietly to myself, just want to get out of this toxic place which is driving me mad.
"Sir, I am sorry but I want you to give her detention for a week or else I won't be taking the class in which she is present" my annoying, not so useful for the world teacher speaks.
"Ms. Reena please calm down, I know your upset but finals are coming soon and if I give her detention it will only affect her studies" My Dean for the first time in my life takes my side only because Zaarib is here or else I know he would have kicked me out and lectured me.
"And we don't want our student who always gets bright marks to fail or just pass right?" he speaks calmly but turns towards Zaarib with a smile.
"Sir, since you are Inaya's guardian now, please teach her some lessons, calling teachers by name is strictly unacceptable even if the teacher is unbearable" he moves forward and I so want to push Zaarib behind me and protect him knowing how evil my Dean's eyes are. But I only look over his shoulder.
"Yeah I understand, this would be the last time of her cursing or calling anybody by names in this campus" from his strict voice I can tell he is not joking, gosh I am in a deep shit now which I myself created.
"Inaya come here" he calls out for me but I only hide behind him like a kid feeling embarrassed. "Inaya" his stern voice is making me more nervous so I gather all my guts to move forward.
My hands clapsed together as I am looking down, I move forward to stand beside him and he pulls me by my arm to walk a little faster since I am crawling like a snail.
But the moment he gripped my arm only to drag me towards my teacher, I couldn't help but let the tears silently slide through my cheek.
Humiliation fills the tank of every girls eyes.
He drags me towards my teacher who is sitting on the chair. When we reach her, he turns me so I could face him.
He brings his hand up to wipe my salty tears before gently patting my arm"Apologise" I lookup to glare at the guy who is asking me to do something I hate.
"I said apologise" his face showing no emotions as he raises his eyebrow daring me to go against it, I can tell he is not kidding at all. My eyes are filling up with more tears which are silently escaping. I do not stop glaring at the guy who is not moving an inch.
He steps forward "Turn around and apologise now Inaya, don't make me repeat" he utters in a low voice so only I could here. Anger is only boiling up inside me at his order. But since I know I am wrong here, I keep my attitude and ego aside to turn and apologise.
"I-I am sorry Maam...this won't happen again. I am sorry if my words hurted you" With so much difficulty I let out the words they want to hear. I snatch my hand away from his grip clearly hating his touches.
The old man clears his throat since it's all-new for him, I have never apologized to anyone before even if it was my mistake and here I am apologizing for my one and only enemy just because of this guy whom I am planning to not talk for the rest of my life.
"Everything is fine now I guess. Inaya apologised like a good girl and now Ms. Reena please forgive her-" I don't want her forgiveness to whatever I said, because I said with full sense so I am not at all guilty for cursing on her.
I walk past everyone, didn't want to stay here a second more. "Inaya--" I hear Zaarib's voice but I ignore him to run away from this toxic place not before closing the door with a bang as if it is my home.
Zaarib's pov
I let out a sigh while rubbing my forehead at this girl's behaviour, who still don't know how to act in front of elders.
