GAINING COURAGE

THE door to the classroom opened.  Because they were in the middle of class, the sound of the door opening was pretty harsh.  Everyone turned and saw a tall girl with big glasses entering.

"I-I'm sorry for being late, Sir," said the student who just entered the classroom.

Wu Hai frowned.  But when he saw that the late student was Yu Jiao, the crease on his brows loosened.  The other was a good student.  If she's late, then she probably had a good reason why.  Especially since this was the first time the other was late to homeroom.

"It's alright, Yu Jiao," he said.  "You can take your seat."

Yu Jiao sighed with relief and quickly went to her seat.

Luo Yan also had a frown when he saw Yu Jiao.  Not just because she's late but more so because of her state when she walked in.  Her hair was messier than usual, even her uniform was all skewed.  As if someone pulled on her uniform. 

Just what happened?
