It's A Secret

It's A Secret to Solve (I.A.S.S)

Hi! Happy Birthday! Dedicated to @MahiyaingSisiw!

A sneer escaped her teacher's lips as she read the essay that she had passed. It wasn't really her fault that she chose a topic that was too personal to her.

"Really, Ms. Joy? You want more power to women? Is this the point where us women would be the one to work for our own family's living and not our men?"

Sweat started to drop from her forehead as she watched how her teacher's eagle-like eyes scanned the rest of her work. It wasn't her problem that she was actually following the traditional way of a man working hard for his family and the latter etc.

"N-No ma'am, that is not what I mean. What I mean-" Before she can even defend her answer, her essay was slammed down the table, shocking almost all of her classmates.

"An F for you, young lady. I do not like your point." She took her essay and quietly just sat down on her desk.

This is unfair and horrible.

"No! T-This is horrible!" Rafaella shouted as she heard the story about Joy's essay.

"Not to mention completely unfair. She said an essay, any topic. And now, she slams everyone who opposes her views." Catalina stated as she herself looked at her very own mocking F.

"Ummm...what is your topic about, Catalina?" Mary asked looking at her own grades about the 80s. She got an A+.

"About the relationship between China and Philippines." No words we're spoken after that since they knew how...opposed she is about their alliance.

"We need to fight for our rights!" Rose slammed her hands on the table as she looked at all of their essays. All of them got an F, except for Mary.

"I completely agree with you, Rose, even though I got an A." Mary answered. Everyone shouted in agreement and have planned on confronting their teacher the next day.

"But she is a terror teacher. There has been news about her framing other students who does what we did. She doesn't want to be corrected." Kent said his face looking worried.

"There are also rumors about her pushing a student down the stairs, making said student completely breaking her neck." Rodney added, looking at everyone seriously.

"There is also something about her..my brother's class experienced it." Everyone looked at Rose, curiosity echoing at everyone's aura. l

"What is it all about?"

"She absolutely abhor students. I am wondering myself why she became a teacher if she hates us. Haven't you wondered why she didn't get a class to hold this year? Well, because..."

"...someone committed suicide because of her harsh ways." Shivers followed all of them. A death happened because of that teacher? Now, that's different.

"A-Are we still going to continue this plan?" Lae-ann asked a bit scared.

"Of course." Catalina's and Rose's eyes are flaming with hate. Oh yes, they will. Until she changed all of her ways.

"Okay, let's meet outside the teacher's faculty room after class."

-The Next Day-

Mary is feeling very...scared. Not because of the confrontation, she wasn't one to be scared so easily but she has the uneasy feeling that someone is watching her.

She looked around seeing a shadow following her. No, it might just be her eyes playing things with her.

"Damn it, why do I have to come to school at freaking 4:45." She was an early bird, everyone knows that.
