I sighed and immediately kept my mouth close when I noticed a few teachers looking my way.

Imagine ruining everything now?

I'm gonna kick my ass.

Mrs. Lee finally spoke, "Miss Jang? Mind explaining?" She exhaled while massaging her temples.

How frustrated it must be to know that you have two suspected-to-have-cheated-students in your class.

"I didn't."

Hearing Wonyoung's voice made me sick, she's now pleading with a whiny voice, a voice that was so soft and high-pitched that others might think she's gonna cry anytime soon.

I turned to her anyways wanting to see how she's gonna turn the tables.

"Yes, those pictures are true." She ended with an unexpected line, "but it was the other way round."

I frowned, my mouth forming a circle. I was so close to scream and punch her in the face.

I could think about forgiving her a minute ago but now, the way she still tried to lie about everything and even blame it on me, was disgusting.

Not to mention, she was Jimin's ex-girlfriend, who hurt him so much.

I was fuming.

Before I could think further, she began, "that day, it was Seohyun who came to me and asked me to take the papers. But of course I refused because cheating isn't right. I ran off. After she finished finding Jimin though, she came back to me! She forced me to use the papers."

Her eyes reddened, I wondered how she even managed to do that in such a short period of time.

"Okay," Mrs. Lee murmured and closed her eyes. Somehow I felt like her hair had grown gray-er now. "If Miss Kim really gave you the papers, why didn't you take it then? Not that I would encourage it of course, but I want to know the reason behind."

"Because I know cheating isn't right!" She was half-screaming with her hand sincerely placed on her chest. She took a step forward showing how 'helpless' and 'dumbfounded' she was.

Seriously?

I thought when I saw the reactions of the teachers. They either held up some papers and acted like they're reading something or they'd be talking to each other discussing about the whole case.

Please don't tell me she really successfully turned the tables on me.

My heart picked up its pace again. I felt like it could jump out of my chest. My legs became jelly as panic came back to me, reminding me about the possibility that I might get expelled.

Jimin suddenly sent me a glance, one that was so worried and also so calm. The way his eyes looked into mine was like telling me that everything's going to be okay.

Out of the blue, Jimin said, "Miss Jang, I'm sorry but I don't think I'd trust you."

Wonyoung dropped her head and slowly looked up. "Why?" Her voice was trembling. Her hands held together.

How can the teachers not get softened for her.

"Look at Miss Kim, she's been calmer than you even though she's the first suspect of cheating, but you're..." He paused and moved forward. He pointed at her face with a dramatic frown on his. "Already crying?"

My brows were raised high up on my forehead. I was certain that what Jimin was doing was unnecessary unless he said it simply to upset her. But for the Jimin that I knew, he wouldn't do such thing, especially at such a bad timing.

Then why?

From the corner of my eyes, I could see Wonyoung stiffened at the words. The tears in her eyes seemed to have unwillingly dried a bit, her face looked like she'd been biting on lemon. Her lips twitched probably from holding her anger in.

Jimin gave her a very small eye-rolling which no one other than the three of us could see. He turned back to the teachers. "Everyone, so according to our- your accusation, the one that Miss Kim took was the first version and the one that we actually used at last was the second one. I've checked just now, the first version was last updated on 12/3 and the second one was last updated on 15/3..."

"Fucking dumbass, the first one was updated on the 11/3."

My lips parted when I heard what Wonyoung said. She did not seem to be aware of the fact that she spoke it out loud, like literally, loud.

Confusion remained to spread in my brain like a big fog.

How did she know the date?

I thought I saw Jimin checking on Wonyoung so quickly that no one seemed to see. But he didn't stop speaking, nor did he get surprised for what Wonyoung said.

Now I felt like my brain could shut down anytime soon. Everyone's reaction was hella confusing.

Jimin continued to explain the dates and times of the documents, although I had no idea how it could help the case.

Wonyoung murmured with pauses in between as she drew circles on the ground with her shoe, so unconscious of the situation, "it's last updated at 12:46... Before teacher's lunch break...  The staff room was empty-"

I couldn't control myself, I gasped and covered my mouth. I took a step back.

I understand now,

why Jimin had been acting weird while he spoke.

Because Wonyoung has always had a habit of mumbling when she's frustrated, Jimin was trying to lead her on and tell us everything she knew.

So now the truth had been revealed, by the starter herself.

Is this what you guys have expected?

Now I've finished updating, I'll go and continue reading my book hehe byebye^^
