Bab 87: Another day, another failure!

"Penny, tell me the truth."

Miss Sandford sat down on her post and looked at Penny sincerely. Her voice was quiet, but her face was stern and reassuring. 

"This morning… are you being targeted?" Miss Sandford didn't beat around the bush. "It's okay if you tell me the truth. I'll keep this complaint anonymous if what you're scared of is angering your bullies more."

Looking at Miss Sandford, Penny couldn't help but see her as the hope for humanity. "Miss Sandford, I'm okay."

"Penny, I know you are okay, but you have to tell me the truth."

"Yes." 

Hearing this, Miss Sandford's face darkened in dismay. She didn't make a huge fuss about this because everyone was already telling her it was nothing. However, Miss Sandford didn't make it to this school just by her looks alone.
