After a disturbing nap of 7 hours, moving left to right, thinking about the night, finally the alarm rang, and we got ready for the consequences. I hugged my mother before going. I looked at her for almost 2/3 of a minute. That feeling of guilt was creeping inside my heart. I didn't do anything other than stand up for myself, but it was for the sake of her love and warmth. Will these swollen eyes, with love and devotion for ages, be able to see the truth, the old wound of shame? . She asked me if there's something I want to say. Of course she is my mother.
I said no, and we left for Gordon. Emma was driving. Emma: "Ready for our first blunder?"? Hailey: "We are officially becoming teenagers." Jack was getting ready to get suspended lol. Emma: "He is really cool, isn't he?"? Hailey: "Maybe. Emma: "Even Alex is coming early today; he must be riding his Harley just to support us till the office.". Hailey: "After the office, it is just me, Jack, Jack, and Xavier Abeidiu, the principal." Emma: "That is the most scary part." We reached earlier than expected.
Now we have to take anxiety pills and stand here, right from the lawyers block to outside of a cozy office full of medals, which could be seen through a glass door. We stopped talking when the shadow of a tall man holding a file was cast; probably his head is covered with a ring. He pushed the bell from inside, then our canteen manager followed up with a white tray carrying a black coffee. Emma anxiously smiled at me, and I was quiet.
I took a breath. A deep one. I could recognize Jack coming straight from the gate. After Jack, Alex was behind him. Alex was waving at us. After seeing Jack, they both shook hands and came towards us. Alex: "My script is ready, guys. I will definitely speak up for Hailey that I heard him making remarks on Hailey's character." Emma: "Obviously, we will be called, but will you be able to say the exact words?"? Alex: "I am sorry... but may I? Excuse us. You two prepare for yourself; we will handle our side. Hailey: "Thank you so much. I don't know. I am speechless. I cannot say much, but it means a lot". Jack: "Huhh, it is just the second day, Hailey; we have almost 3 years to continue this.
Let's sort this out first. Alex: "I agree, man!" Jack was standing nearby me; he made me sit on the steel chairs in the waiting area. I was shaking; my legs were. Jack was planning to sue him, but I was feeling very down today; I just wanted to save him from the restriction. His mind map was ready. At first he kept his finger over my shaking hand for a second. Jack: "Calm down, Hailey." Hailey: "Let us just discuss." Jack: "I said calm down, okay?"? Jack: "Scenario" A. He was spreading a rumor about you that you were intimate with him years back. You heard it out from your ears (Emma and Alex) are testimonies.
You tried to stop him by calling him out. But he instigated you. I came to resolve the conflict unknowingly (the whole staff and even the dean are testimonies). When I got to know about the humiliation, I tried to stop him; he didn't stop. Hailey: "But I just hit him hard on his chest; in the end, he has to get admitted."? "Jack, he won't spare you, I swear." Jack: "You are saved." I was quiet for a moment, and then Jack was called inside.
