I don’t know how I managed to walk home. It was a story I had already heard him blurt out in anger but, sadness I sensed in the Inspector’s voice haunted me better than the voice ever could. And the fact that my Dad was responsible twisted the knife in just a bit further. Also...Although I didn't want to admit it there was the fact I kept thinking of the old woman...666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubmVqddTaH
Nancy and Jennifer were both standing at the gates, both looking even more miserable than I felt.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm8f1K6Eoxi

“What’s wrong?” I asked quickly. But I had a feeling I knew. T666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUhD4aYGDY

Nancy opened her mouth to speak but Jenny spoke first. “I…I want…There’s something I have to tell you. I'm sorry I didn't earlier but...”666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzVZFoWMq0

“Blackmail…” Nancy said. There was no malice in her voice, just a sad resignation. She put an arm around Jenny’s shoulders and continued. “Today morning Jenny’s Dad had a visitor.”666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtlAKSM4zr

Jenny broke into such loud sobs that Nancy had to stop comfort her again. After the crying stopped Jenny took up the story. “Do you know who it was? Roy Sir…”666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZWYBCMbng

Roy Sir…Our always joking and happy Physics Master. At least that was what he had been till Jolly train wrecked his life. His whole family was a broken mess now and I think it’s simply because he’s too shattered that he has not given resignation and walked away from the wretched school.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyVIIKHx7F

Jennifer wept so bitterly that she almost sank to the floor. After she was back in control of herself she looked at me with swollen red eyed for almost a whole minute before going on.666Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvo0UwWtxfw
