I should have known I’d be called first. Me being the prime suspect and all…Strangely enough, I didn’t feel at all nervous when the summons came. I followed the peon into the principal’s office, steadfastly ignoring the voice which was shouting out the thoughts of my classmates. I didn’t harm Jolly, I told myself, so I have nothing to be afraid of.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4BDMOs857

It felt strange to see Lekha Madam standing at the door of her office like a security guard. She looked up when I approached and managed a small smile.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9t1WNHj41d

“There’s nothing to be worried about, Amy.” She told me, gently. “Jut answer his questions truthfully and you’ll be fine.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7ILX8JxOd
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTWhq1QoP7
“I’m not scared.” I said, slowly. “Not at all…” How did I dare say that in front of the principal? Maybe…I was just too afraid to care about the words that left my mouth.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bdb18zcK9
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVh91t2Qmi
She looked at me in half in pity and half in exasperation.  “Remember…Remember what I said.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWX0lqCHIU4
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2iVt7TMMM
I nodded, trying to hide a smile. I had made up my mind to be defiant. The manager was going to get the biggest surprise of his life.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBK1qB2SaUA
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNEZYVCYdC
“Inspector Sir…” Lekha Madam called out and knocked once on the door. “Amy is here.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPOTpF79bu
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40GrZRpZUH
I heard the rough voice of the Inspector say come in. With a smile at Lekha Madam I walked inside.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQCfBijTHR
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZg8NykpOuS
The Inspector was seated at Lekha Madam’s desk. His lips twisted into a smile when he saw me.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkV4kkvi6L
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjgQF9xkjq
“Do you wonder why I called you first?” He asked. The voice was laughing with glee, so loudly that it hurt my ears. He would pin the crime on me if there’s a chance. I took a deep breath. There’s no use being nervous. I told myself856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCITQoCwFPE
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwduy2kAg3C
​“You want to question me about Lawrence’s accusations, I suppose.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvh3XGcwkjS
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9sLUvXjNg
​He laughed. His laugh was even less pleasant than his smile. “Am I such an idiot as to lend so much weight to that’s boy’s ridiculous accusation?”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdtiwXFk1n
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZigIBSjv4U
“Then why…”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXXTztiMBa
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X5XmYgJLt
“You and Jolly have a rather unpleasant history. I believe you fought before the crime took place?”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYlSfHLLOm
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIZegElfua
“We have fought several times.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh4am3UBCU
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlQWUAGLBv
“So…” His voice was positively gleeful. “You admit you were her enemy.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDf9uQuTOk
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJX5vYUwilb
“Not an enemy, Sir.” I said. “I didn’t like her. Many of us didn’t like her.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pHKgSUmSR
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrixnK2ZZkE
“Would you count Nancy among these so called many?”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKTgUItMWH
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfR2YCfhgN
The voice told me all the connections his brain was making. The Inspector knew very well that Lawrence’s words alone were too feeble to tie me to the crime. But that didn’t mean he couldn’t name me as an accomplice to someone with a bigger motive.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMBLxLj0su
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKG2WRWsfU
“Nancy…She wouldn’t…” My facade of calmness deserted me for a minute. And that gave the Inspector time to pounce.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLjppXx3gJc
 856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiv5TWoe6xg
“She wouldn’t hate Jolly after being taunted and humiliated day by day?”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56hzDwI7Tt
 856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkzfJr5yLX
“She’s not the only person that Jolly does that to.”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPhiD9ottv
 856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gsP6ObIBO
“Ah yes…”  The Inspector smiled. “There’s also your friend Jennifer…”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡux4B2DGeUv
 856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqFCZH4HXr
“Jenny would never…”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnALSQIWETd
856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMCfxg7tjh
“You always stand up for others, don’t you? If your two friends are desperate and hurt enough to want  her  gone…”856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml003R34Gg
 856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanB68xYuIb
I froze. Jenny too… His bloodshot eyes were slits. The smile had transformed into a leer.856Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SFWPJIHyN
