**Rignley Pov**
Uh-oh, this is bad.
What are they even doing here?
I can already see how my friend’s expression is changing.
Oh no, please, don’t let her be mad.
She’s not mad. She’s not mad.
Honestly, it’s better if she’s mad—at least you’d be in big trouble!
Haha!
Ugh, conscience, stop it! You’re not helping!
I’m really hoping nothing bad happens here.
Damn it!
What are they even doing here?
“What are you doing here, 3S?” I asked, breaking the awkward staring.
“Yeah, what are 'you' guys doing here?” Rye followed up.
“Rye! You just repeated what Rign said!” Dye pointed out.
Hein coughed to stop the twins from arguing.
“Hmm... So you’re the new freshmen this year, right?” Hein asked, sitting on the table and crossing her arms and legs.
Man, our uniforms are kinda sexy—white long sleeves with blue trousers, and for girls, a short blue skirt above the knee, with knee-high socks and black shoes.
I positioned myself in front of Hein, trying to block anyone from peeking.
But in my head, I knew the truth:
'You’re just scared they’ll cause trouble, and you’ll be screwed!'
Argh!!
Shut up, brain!
I noticed Hein giving me a sharp look, as if she’d toss me out the window if I kept trying to protect her.
I shrugged it off and stayed put.
I had to do this.
“Rignley Bustamante.” Her voice was low and dangerous.
Hearing her say my full name made me gulp.
She was definitely pissed.
“B-but…” I stuttered, looking at her with a worried expression.
She just sighed and shoved me aside.
Damn, this girl.
“Quetinn, get this girl and bring her to my office.” She ordered, her voice cold and commanding.
“And don’t even think about disobeying me.” Her tone was like a predator ready to pounce.
We all gulped at how terrifying she sounded.
It reminded me of that one time… Chills ran down my spine, and in my panic, I nearly lost my balance.
Oh, packing tape!!
She’s terrifying when she’s serious!
“Let’s go, Rign! I still value my life,” Dye whispered in my ear.
“Me too!” Rye added.
I just nodded and let them drag me along to Hein’s office.
My whole body was still trembling from my panic attack.
“Man, I just don’t get it. Why now, all of a sudden?” Rye asked, confused.
