Chương 25: Whispered Lies in the Restroom      

It was between classes, the halls bustling with students heading to their next lesson that I had slipped into the restroom, hoping to have a moment of peace before the next period.

When I entered one of the stalls, I soon heard familiar voices filtering through the air—a sharp giggle, followed by a hushed but excited whisper.

And why should it? I never retaliated.
