"I heard what the ACP did. I couldn't contact you two and reached out to the DCP!"
Soham's genuine anger is uncontrollable the following morning. His eyes practically blaze, eyeing Seyon and Thiya who are lounging against a wall with their arms crossed after entering hall 57.
"You two texted me last night to reassure me but... Were you trying to hide the truth? The ACP this time ventured above and beyond! This workplace harassment is unacceptable now, Seyon! Thiya, are you the type who can endure this?"
Seyon heaves a sigh. Thiya shakes her head with a soft exhale.
"I can't agree more." Mira stands behind Soham, her stance firm. "What was the ACP thinking? He wants to scare one of us to death? Unfortunately for him, we are not scaredy-cats. Uh, cats are cute and brave. The ACP's attitude is unacceptable."
Seyon, Thiya remain unmoving, though they wear weary expressions. Bright morning sunlight fills hall 57. A brilliant sunny morning, it is. But Soham has been sulking for at least half an hour. Beats the cause of everyone arriving early.
Seyon clears his throat.
"Soham... just drop it already. The DCP has proof. He confiscated the assailant's identity proof and will certainly take action."
Soham snorts derisively, "when?"
"When it's the right time," Thiya responds, "We will solve this case, then place our accusations. With his reprehensible actions, the ACP will be ousted. That's a fitting end to this mess.
Soham's shoulders droop. He reads the time on his smartwatch and understands he has to drop the topic. Mira pats his back soothingly.
