#Chapter62 IN THE BACKSTAGE
/"Please don’t freak out, Em. I will explain it. Don’t tell anyone./" Pearl pleaded with fear in her eyes.
/"Say it now. Why there’s a gun here? I’m still freaking out./" I lowered my voice this time.
/"This is a real gun. We are supposed to bring one duplicate gun for the play. You have probably seen it in the play. The main female character tried to use it for self-defence but didn’t pull the trigger./"
/"So, are you saying that she used a real gun in a school play?/"
/"Yeah. She bought them here. But something wrong happened in her house. The real ones and duplicate got switched and then we couldn’t tell the teachers at the last moment. So, we carefully used it. I’m just keeping it until she comes back and takes it with her./" Pearl explained.
