Hey! Back with an update!

#HappyReading

-----------------------

Headmistress casually walked towards us. Amber's eyes were still confused there was no sign of humour as if she was joking around with me. Mrs. Filips answered on my behalf,"That is Miss Margaret Stone you are talking to. She is also a student of I.O.P Haven't you met her before?"

"No, I don't know her. She is new I think?" Amber replied. I frowned and shook her to make her look me in the eye.

"Amber, it's me, Margaret! Gret! We met on the day of electring. We came together on the train to Frequencia and got sorted into Positives."I paused to take a breathe. Her expression didn't change much and her forehead had more creases.

"Enough of joking, you know I hate these pranks. Please just enough, we have to go and discuss so much." I expected her to laugh eventually but she never did. Instead she got out of my hold and pushed my hands away.

"No, I am not joking at all. Why are you saying this? I don't even know you."She said controlling her temper. This tore me apart, she really had forgotten me.

And to make it worse Mrs. Filips interrupted,"Don't trouble the lady Miss Stone. You heard what she said,"She turned to Amber,"You can go to your dormitory Miss Louise and attend your classes tomorrow." Amber thanked her and walked out of the office not before glancing at me suspiciously.

I slowly got up and if Mrs. Filips wouldn't have been my headmistress and I wasn't already on the black list I would have launched myself at her to kick her ass. But I growled,"Why did you do this?"

"I did this for you Miss Stone," She said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"But I never-"

"I wasn't going to punish Amber at all. All I was going to do was to erase her memories from yesterday. But you came to me this morning and begged me to punish you so I did. We never let any of the requests go unfulfilled." She explained in a rehearsed voice. She had answers ready for every situation.

"Why the memories?! Anything else could have done!" I shouted. Her face didn't have any scrap of surprise. She expected me to react in this way, I was giving her what she wanted.

"Memories that you so wanted."She said thumping on the table."It is a courtesy that I am not tying you up and asking you why did you try to cross the walls of the institute. But it is obvious why you pulled the silliest stunt," She paused, "young and curious brains. Why do you think we don't let you out? It is for your own good! Miss Louise wasn't found safe and sound, she was under attack but my men saved her,"And then she stopped for a few minutes and prepared what to say next as if she had let out too much.

I was too shocked to say anything but she continued,"Margaret, I cannot let you know what is there. It is the number one rule. If you are here then give yourself a cheer as you are in the safest place of Frequencia. You are one of the best we have got, focus on that."And her motherly side shows up out of nowhere. The fake side.

"The harm has been done. Thank you for punishing me as I asked you to."I gulped down the bellow I was about to throw at her and left without a second glance. There were fifteen minutes until Charging Point ended so it was no point of attending it and disturb the class. Instead I waited outside the doors. Jeremy and Diego were the only people I could talk to.

Fifteen minutes passed in a flash. And as competitive moved out of the class I patiently waited for my friends. But somebody else was willing to talk to me that day. Kay emerged out of the charing point and threw an unexpected 'Hi'. I replied with the same, trying so hard to hide the sourness in my voice.
