4 "Hmph! It wasn't MY fault to begin with!"

"Oh, nothing really happened.". Katy was shocked at how calm Alice was able to be. "So you didn't get in trouble?". Alice could sense that Katy was curious, but in a petty-ish way. "Just get the hell away from me, you...". Alice reframes herself from being aggressive, and proceeds to walk past her.

"It wasn't even my idea...it's not my fault right?". Katy proceeds to try to comfort herself as she knows what had possibly happened. She thinks about what to say, as she realized that Alice told on them.

"Katy Rose, from Class 3-A, please report to the dean's office.". As the announcement is heard, Katy is hesitant to report to the dean'ss office. "Oh well, I guess I should go?".

Katy Rose takes her time, walking to the office. As she walks into the office, Ms.Williams scolds her.

~Meanwhile, on Alice's side~

"Alice! What happened to you! I just heard your and Katy's name in the announcement! And both of you had to go to the dean! You didn't get in trouble did you!?". Alice lifts her head to see who is speaking.

Indeed, it is who she thought it was, Alex. "Hmph! It wasn't even MY fault! Those girls tried to poor water on me!". Alice is really pissed at the moment and doesn't even try to ATTEMPT to stay calm. "If they tried to pour water on you, why was Katy the one soaking!?".

Alex was obviously biased in this conversation, so Alice decided not to reason with him, but not before making one last remark. "Hey, why are you even defending Katy? You like her or something? You can't even listen to my point of view! She probably brain-washed you as well as all the other boys!".

Alice thought she would feel better after saying that, but in a way, it just made her feel worse about the entire thing. She shoves past him, but before she can head back to the classroom, he grabs her arm. "Hey! I'm not done yet!".

"Let go of me! Why don't you try getting the story from Katy! You're obviously biased of her!". Alice has had ENOUGH. Strangely enough, she didn't feel better, like, at ALL. In fact, her heart was pounding, but not because of love, but of selfishness and immaturity. Her face was getting red as she yanked her wrist out of Alex's grip, and charges to her class, with her face and heart still red and pounding.
