When Mrs. A sat in her desk, she placed her hands together underneath her chin and put her head down for a moment. "Now you two"-then she opened her eyes, lifted her head up and glared at Sam and Zac-"have a lot of explaining to do."

Zac and Sam just stood there in silence when they gazed at Mrs. A. Zac frowned at her while Sam just gave her his serious look on her face. Zac's eyes twitched and moved sideways at a bit. 

-Oh, man. This is it, Zac buddy. I'm gonna be in so much trouble. 

Then his memories of tying Kayleb up in the bag and locking him up in the storage room haunted him through and through.

-I jus' can't believe that I failed to return here jus' in time, y'know. If only that bus arrived at my stop earlier, none of this shit would've even happened in the first place. Goddammit!

Mrs. A turned to Zac and glared at him with her eyes nearly closed. "Starting with you…so answer this, Zac: why did you tie Kayleb and lock him up in the storage room this morning?! In fact, what were you even doing in the storage room anyway?!"

"Well, um…uh…" Zac looked up at the ceiling when he tried to think of a response for Mrs. A. Yet his sweat poured down from his forehead when he had a hard time coming up with an answer, frowning harder than ever before.

-Oh, c'mon, Zac buddy! Come up with an answer already! Think, dammit, think! We don't have time for this bullshit now!

"Well, Zac?!" Mrs. A impatiently said while Sam viciously grinned at Zac, without Mrs. A noticing it. "I'm waiting…"

-C'mon now, man! Hurry the hell up already! Geez…

He thought of an answer harder than ever before. He fearfully kept staring at the ceiling for a while until something finally popped up inside his heart. 

-Ah! Finally!

Then he turned to Mrs. A with a smile on his face.

"Well, you see, Mrs. A…" Zac swallowed his saliva and began to speak, placing his hands together while he slowly walked up to Mrs. A's desk. "We were jus' playing Bein' Silent while Bein' Tied Up in a Bag…"

Sam quietly chuckled and turned his head left with his hand in front of his mouth, while Mrs. A raised her eyebrow at Zac. "So you were, what I heard right…'playin' Bein' Silent while Bein' Tied Up in a Bag' with Kayleb, huh?"

"Yes, ma'am! We sure did!" Zac continued. "I mean, you have to remain tied up without anyone else except me untying him for a long period of time. Once that time's up, I would arrive back at that storage room. 

"If anyone else untied him except me, he looses and remains bein' tied in the next round. If I untie him, then he wins and I get to be tied up for a long period of time in the next round. And that's how the game' bein' played."

Mrs. A closed her eyes and shook her head sideways, sighing out of disbelief. "Zac…"

Sam still managed to chuckle silently without Mrs. A noticing him, performing his same actions as before. Zac widened his eyes and twitched his eyes sideways, leaning back a bit, putting his hands out forward. He couldn't even believe what he'd saw from Mrs. A's reaction towards his answer.
