The teacher nodded, quickly handling the necessary paperwork on her computer. A moment later, she handed Charmaine her new student ID. “Welcome back.”

Charmaine accepted it with both hands. “Thank you.”

The principal gave a brief look before he made his way toward the door, clearly content with the outcome.

One sentence sealed the registrar’s fate.

Charles stood frozen, stunned for a moment. Then, realizing the weight of the situation, he rushed toward the principal, eager to argue.

Charmaine made her way down the stairs, her eyes finding the headmaster once again, standing beneath a banyan tree, watching her.

She approached him, offering a small bow. “Thank you, Headmaster.”
