The Mock Exam

The weekend ended and the day for our mock exam arrives.

"Students, hurry up and come to your own respective classrooms. The mock exam will be in a minute. Kindly be patient to wait for your homeroom adviser. Read carefully and make sure to pass the exam. Good luck!" the announcer broadcasted to the whole school.

Those students, who are outside of their classrooms, are running hurriedly to come back to their classrooms while Kei and I were totally running because both of us woke up late.

(One hour ago)

"Kei, hurry! We'll be late!" I said.

"Well, if you did not stay up late last night, we will not be late," Kei said.

"So, it is my fault now? You're really something Kei Chandler."

"Look who's talking, you basement addict, Amelia Chandler."

"Young master Kei and Lady Amelia, if you have enough time to quarrel, would it be nice if you use that time to prepare yourselves? Both of you will be late and did you forget that today is the day of your mock exam, is it okay to be late?" Mr. George said.

"Oh, shoot! You're right," both Kei and I said in unison.

Father was just watching both Kei and me bickering with each other then he laughed when Mr. George interrupted us.

"Well then, if you passed in this mock exam I'll give the two of you a prize," father said.

"Really?" we both said in unison like a 6-year-old child waiting for their reward.

Father nodded. "I'll unfreeze your card Kei, and I'll give you another entertainment Amelia," father said with a smile.

"Father!" we both hugged father.

"My lovely children, now go on or you'll be late," father said, Both Kei and I get our bags and waved goodbye to father and Mr. George.

"Good luck with your exam," Kei's father shouted before we even entered the car. Father was happily waving his hands to us so as we while the car's window is open.

(Present time at school)

Both Kei and I were panting as we enter the classroom.

"Good morning, Chandlers."

Both Kei and I looked back to see who greeted us.

"A pleasure morning, Alexander," Kei said.

"Good morning," I greeted him as well.

He smiled at us. The three of us walked to our respective seats. A couple of minutes later, our homeroom adviser, Ms. Catherine Hawkins, entered the room with the test papers in both her hands.

"Everyone, attention! Rise and greet," our class president said.

We all stand and greet our teacher. "Good morning, Ms. Hawkins," said in unison.

"Good morning, all of you may have a seat," Ms. Hawkins greeted back.

"So, before we start your examination. I wanted to say a few reminders. First, follow the directions and read them carefully. If you have questions or clarifications, ask me not your seatmate. Second, each subject will consume an hour and since you have a total of eight subjects, we decide to cut it into two sessions in the morning and afternoon, but you will have a two hours break before starting the afternoon session. And last but not the least, take the exam seriously. Even though it will be just a mock exam for your upcoming major exam, the scores on this mock exam will be graded as the director indicates. That's all, any questions? violent reactions? or clarifications?" Ms. Hawkins added.

The whole class speaks in unison, "It's all clear ma'am."

Then, Ms. Hawkins started to distribute the exam's answer sheet as well as the test booklet which contains the questions of all eight different subjects, each subject containing 50 questions.

"Does everyone have their answer sheet and test booklet?" Ms. Hawkins asked.

"Yes, Ma'am," we all answered in unison.

"If that's the case, then you may start."

The whole class went in silence and every student started to take the exam.

After a half-hour had passed, I finished answering the first subject and wanted to take a pee. So, I raised my hand.

"Yes, Ms. Chandler?" Ms. Hawkins asked.

"Ma'am, may I go out? I need to go to the restroom."

"Okay, be quick, remember you have an exam," Ms. Hawkins answered.

Then, I took the back door to exit from the classroom and directly went to the restroom. When I reached the girl's restroom I was frustrated upon seeing the 'Out of Order' signage. I don't think I can hold back anymore and decided to go to the restroom in the next building.

I was planning to do so but someone stopped me and said, "You can use the boy's restroom if you want. I think you might not be able to hold that back until you reach the next building."

It's Alexander Ross!

"Really? B-but it's..." I did not even finish my sentence when he shushed me.

"Well, if you think you can handle it, you are free to go to the next building. However, by looking at your expressions, you can't right?" he added.

"But w-what if someone entered and saw me there? I don't want to be called perverted or something," I said.

He just laughed. "Seriously? No one's here, it's just the two of us," he said, then Alexander hold my hand and forced me to enter the boy's restroom.

"If you don't want to be seen by anyone, hurry and take a pee now," he said.

I locked the cubicle's door and started to piss. I can hear Alexander outside the door whistling. What a gentleman. A few moments later, after taking a pee. I was supposed to wash my hands, I suddenly hear a voice of a guy. Alexander and I looked at each other then, he grabbed my hands, and we both enter an empty cubicle.

"Shhh... Don't make any sound," he said. I nodded.

"It's the answers for the Literature subject," the other student said.

"Don't make it too obvious or Mr. Millers will definitely punish us," the other guy student said.

What? They're trying to cheat and use their time here in the restroom to exchange answers? What a nerve!

Alexander and I waited in the cubicle quietly until the two students leave the restroom. A few moments later.

"How dare they? I worked up myself for this mock exam and they'll just cheat?" I angrily said.

"Don't worry about it, I'll tell them to Mr. Millers later," Alexander said.

"How? We don't have any evidence," I said.

He just smirked and hand me his phone, showing me some video.

"Wow! You've managed to record that? Are you a secret agent or what? That's nice," I said.

"Well, this can be evidence, right?"

"It's perfect solid evidence!"

"Uhm... Amelia, I think you need to go back to the classroom," he said.

"Oh, shoot! I almost forgot! But wait, you also need to go back, let's go back together."

"No! I need to go first, remember I asked Ms. Hawkins first."

"You have a point there, well okay, you go first."

"And if someone asked you why you're taking some time, just answer that you take a pee in the restroom next building, okay?"

"Okay!"

Then, Alexander started to head back to our classroom. After a couple of minutes, I also went back to our classroom.

I quietly entered the classroom, entering from the back door. Ms. Hawkins saw me and I just smiled back at her. Then, I continued to answer the remaining three subjects of the morning session in this mock exam.

But I was still bothered about what I heard inside the guy's restroom.
