A Secret That Lies Within Our Eyes: The Proscriptive T-S Relationship

CHAPTER 1: Unaffected

"Will you please answer this one, Ms. Colemann."

"Oh, sure."

Mitchi answered the question on the board assertively.

"Done, Mr. Scott."

"Okay. Is there any other answers?"

"Why? My answer is correct."

"Did I say you're wrong?"

"Then why are you asking for other answers?"

"I'm just looking for a BETTER one."

Mitchi felt a bit of discomfiture. Mr. Scott gave a glance to the class, looking for someone who can give a better answer than Mitchi's.

"Yes, Ms. Thompson. Can I know your answer?"

"Uhumm.. That sounds better. Take your seat, Ms. Thompson."

Bernard walked behind Michi's chair and whispered, "Don't be too confident, young lady."

After class, Mitchi decided to stay in the library and wait for her friend, Lancy Scarlet.

After a few minutes, Lancy arrived.

"Lancy! You will not believe what just happened. During my computer class, Bernard Scott humiliated me in front of the class.  He's so annoying. Can I request Mrs. Gerwood to have our computer class during Fridays only? Seriously, I might lose my full scholarship if I'm going to see him E-V-E-R-Y-D-A-Y."

"Hey, Lancy! What's wrong with you? Aha! Maybe you haven't taken your lunch yet. Let's eat!"

Lancy is still silent.

"Have you heard the news?", Lancy initiated.

"News? What news? Is it about the overpricing of foods in the school cafe? The suspension of stubborn students in the Junior high? Or the never-ending issue about the school's cost-cutting?"

"Will you please listen first?", Lancy said, annoyed.

"You asked me, right? Okay. Go on."

"Mr. Scott is leaving the campus."

"When? Soon? That'll be great."

"I'm not joking. This is a serious matter. He's leaving."

"And so..? What's the big deal about that? I've always expected him to be FIRED."

"Excuse me. He'll not going to be fired. He's filing his resignation letter, so he's leaving VOLUNTARILY."

"Wow! Really uh? With that kind of attitude, he has the guts to leave file his resignation letter? A round of applause for him."

"Michi! You're so mean!"

"No, I'm not. I'm just stating facts."

"Okay, I understand. You really do hate him."

"I don't hate him. I just don't care about him. He's leaving? Gooooo!"

Mr. Bernard Scott is a 27-year old computer teacher in Shelton High. While Michi Colemann is a 16-year old Senior student. Michi is one of the school's "Miss Popular's" because of his charming beauty and intelligence. She'd been a consistent fist honor student for the last three years and now, she's running for the school's valedictorian. Many say, "She has the beauty and brain."

Mr. Scott gets along well with most of the students, especially with girls. His irresistible charm and stunning sex appeal have captivated the pretty girls in the campus. He was loved by everyone but not by Michi. Michi admits that she had a crush on her computer teacher but she clears that there was nothing really serious. In fact, Michi hated him as a teacher because she believes that he's not an effective one. The students often ignore him because he was not a sort of "authoritarian" in class.

"Bye now, Lancy. See you after class. Thanks for the GOOD news! Hahaha! Just inform me if his "resignation" is confirmed. I'll throw a party for him."

"Michiiiii! I hate you!"

"Just kidding."
