As soon as she saw them, Margaret rushed towards the three and hugged Josephine
Margaret - Hey there guys!
Josephine (holds her hand) - So Margaret, what did you want to tell us?
Margaret - Oh just some minor things, let's go and sit down
All of them sat down on a bench nearby
Margaret - So have you heard about the room on the third floor?
Sally - Yeah
Riley - Yeah Anne told us that there was a murder there
Margaret - Oh but did she tell you the details?
Josephine - No not really
Margaret - As expected she hurried off without hearing the whole story anyway, it is said that whoever enters the room (no one cares if it's only once or twice) they will face consequences there was not really a murder there
Riley - But then why does everyone say it is haunted?
Margaret - Well it's said that the room was office of the fifth principal of the school and she had had a lot of trouble to set up the school as there was some problem before she was appointed as the principal they say that she was the first principal's granddaughter eventually she succeeded in setting up the school again and because of some reason she made that room her office. Well she died after working for more than three decades but she was not murdered.
Sally - Wow that's quite an interesting story
Riley - I know right!
Josephine (sits up straight and looks curiously at Margaret) - Well how do you know all this? And why did you want to tell it to us especially?
Margaret suddenly turns pale
Sally (realises what Josephine was trying to say) - Um I think we should get back to class girls
Riley (indifferent) - Yeah
Josephine - I am so sorry Margaret I couldn't give you much time but I'll meet you again in lunch
Margaret - Oh it's ok, I'll be right here
The girls went off to their class, then the morning dragged heavily on with more boring classes and burdening news of more tests. Well I can't say their life was perfect right? Life is sadly not a fairytale after all, all of us have problems but a touch of bliss is a must according to me so I will add some happy moments 𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳
After their classes they again met up all except Josephine as she had went to have lunch with Margaret
Riley - So did you got there?
Susan - Yes
Anne - Yeah we did
Sally - Anything queer?
Anne - Not really but we did hear a strange noise
Susan - Yeah it was more like a voice
Riley - OMG REALLY!
Sally - I feel like we're in a horror movie!
Anne - Pffffft.........
Sally - What?
Anne - Susan stop lying
Susan (with a satisfied expression) - I am good in acting
Riley - How sad I was really excited you know.
Sally (laughs) - Me too but it was a nice joke
Anne - Why don't we go and pick up Josephine?
Riley - I don't think she will want to leave Margaret you know she just came a week ago from her hometown
Susan - Oh must be far isn't it?
Sally - Well we don't really know
Anne - Y'all are hopeless people
Riley - As if you are any better
Anne - Hmph!
Susan - Yeah I think I'll go get her
Riley - I'll come with you
Susan - Sure!
Sally - Riley please do clean the mess you've made first
Riley(winking) - No, I know you'll do it for me
But before Sally could respond she hurriedly caught Susan's hand said "Bye! See y'a later love! "
Sally (tries to chase them) - Hey!!!
But before she could stop them they were already out of sight
Anne - Come on Sally, you can't run after them like a child come sit I'll give you some sweets
Sally - Fine
When all of this happened Josephine and Margaret were having their own little chat
