Punishment?
Principal's Office
Aurelia Scarlet and Selene Frostblade stood nervously before the principal, who was simply staring at them without a word. The silence was oppressive, and the tension in the room was palpable.
"I-Is something wrong?" Lia asked tentatively, glancing at Delphine, who stood silently to the side, her expression unreadable.
No answer came. The room remained dead silent, each second stretching longer than the last.
Lia and Selene exchanged puzzled and anxious glances, both wondering why they had been summoned during class hours.
'Did they find out?' They wondered.
Suddenly, a sound broke the silence,
Knock, Knock
"Come in," the principal said, her voice a sharp contrast to the quiet.
Lia and Selene turned their heads to see Aether entering the room with a hurried, almost frantic expression on his face.
