UN-FAITHFUL

Chapter 12

Somethings that happen in our life some times leave us wondering whether its fate or just plain luck.

Mya sat in the literature class and tried to focus as the intern teacher taught. She tried so hard but her mind kept trailing off to the events that had happened to her that morning.
She is standing in front of the whole school board and is thinking. "How come in times like this is when the board has to have a meeting."
She remembered that feeling when she had gone to the headmistress' office only to get gladly announced to that on the day she is supposed to face the disciplinary committee is the day the school is supposed to have a board meeting and that instead of happening as planned, they will instead discuss the matter of her case as a whole school board.

She had just sat and waited out as the board meeting went on until they called her in. Her feet had gone cold. She was shaking involuntarily. But some how.. Just somehow.. She managed to stand in front of everyone.
She could see those bald headed men ogling and almost even seeing through her. She had no where to look, her hands begun sweating. Her eyes were getting blurred. But that rebellious thought keeps in her head.
She believes she didn't do anything wrong.
Then they begin talking. She can't even hear what they are saying until she hears the headmistress call out her name aloud.
She takes a step ahead. Some woman is talking.
"From what we have heard, we all believe that you are guilty. You are among the people trying to introduce such ungodly behaviours in a church based school and as we have seen fit, you are going to be ex. "
"Wait.. "Mya felt like something had just used her mouth. She couldn't believe she had cut the woman short.. Had she been planning to expel her? She had to talk and defend herself.
" Im not a lesbian. Its not what you think. I have never had feelings for girls. "
The woman is now looking at her through her glasses so weirdly .
"Prove to us then. Because from what we have just discussed, you the accused tempted the detective's daughter into your bed after various threats of bullying. "
MYA is shocked. So that's how Racheal had survived. The detective's daughter indeed. Jesus.
"I didn't tempt any one, or threaten or anything. I don't even know the meaning of the word bully. And if i ever woke up with lesbian feelings, it would never be for the detective's daughter. I have repulsed her from day one. "
Mya shut up.
Tears are now in her eyes. They are almost falling and she has to fight them back. The woman continues talking. "We are going to expel"
Then the saviour's voice. "Wait Matilda. Lets give her a chance. Since this is a christian founded school, we know Christ gives a second chance always. Iam suggesting we put her under guidance and observation of the chaplain. If the chaplain complains,then that's when we expel her. "Its one of those men she had thought bald when she entered. Thank God for his baldness.
They start murmuring and talking once again. And then the woman, Matilda, tells her" thank your Jesus for this and please live exemplary because that now that you are on our list, any slight mistake will have you out of this school without a chance to explain yourself. Off you go"
She had bowed and taken her leave.
But the feeling couldn't leave her.
She had come just in time for the literature lesson and couldn't wait to confront Racheal.
"As i said," the teacher is teaching "Romeo and Juliet proved... "And the bell rung..
