That Photo

The fight got more and more intense. Some students even started recording it, which happens everytime a fight occurs in the corridor. I had warned him but he didn't take it seriously. It ain't my fault. We almost beat each other up. Then horrors of horror, Ms. Laurie, someone who we probably weren't ready to face, walked towards us. All the students were afraid of her. As soon as everyone saw her, they moved aside. You know we all have that type of teacher in our school.

A wonderful day, or so I thought, had been ruined.

The whole school was almost empty by now. Only the two of us, cleaning classrooms. I was doing my part but he barely did anything. He is just a rich, spoiled brat. Thanks to our school, we have CCTV cameras on all the floors except the first floor. It felt really awkward. A while later, I heard a light knock on the door." Nice time?" said Patrick as he walked in."Why are you still here?" I asked as I stared at him in suprise."I hid in the store room until the whole school left. Am I not great at hide-and-seek?" Then Victoria entered," Oh-hey." she said, catching her breath." Why are you panting? " I asked." Mrs. Smith had seen me sneaking into the teacher's lodge. That's why." she said, after finally breathing normally." And, what were you doing there?" I asked her." To hide, I guess?" she looked at me." I requested God to save me." I said, without looking up." Looks like your prayer got stuck in a traffic jam." She joked. Not funny at this moment.

"I guess you guys should return home. I don't want you guys to face any consequences from the school just because of me." I said, probably pissed from what had happened this morning." You think we can leave you all alone with your favourite person?" She teased me. She uses that word quite often." I hate him as much as hell." I said and continued what I was doing. I moved towards the corner and slightly pushed the chair aside. But then I stopped as I saw a photo. It was stuck between two tiles. A weird vibe surrounded me. I bent a bit to take it out. I slowly started pulling it as I didn't wish to damage it.
