May meeting ang mga officers ng White Lambs sa kanilang quarter. Kasama sa pinag-uusapan nila ang ginawa ni Miisha sa orphanage during their feeding program.

"What shall we do with her now? She has still two weeks to finish her one month probation," wika ni Laarni.

"Well, for me since hindi naman binig-deal ni Congressman Carballo ang nangyari at siya na rin mismo ang nagsabing treat it like nothing happened, siguro ay pwede pa nating pagbigyan si Miisha na tapusin na lang ang one month niya as a member. The incident won't reach our school admin because the congresman himself settle everything para hindi na lumabas pa ang issue," opinyon ni Kyle.

"We must kick her out now," tutol ng isang officer. "Mabuti na lamang at nagkataong mabait si Cong. Carballo kaya hindi napahamak ang organization natin but what if she did it to someone who can't tolerate such rudeness? And I witnessed too kung papaano niya binastos si Jacob. She glared and turned her back from him. Why are we going to protect someone who can't even respect our president?"

"What can you say Jacob?" tanong ni Laarni.

Sabay-sabay na napatingin ang mga officers sa direksiyon ng leader.

Jacob is quietly sitting in a corner while listening to the ongoing conversation. Nanahimik siya nang mag-umpisang pag-usapan ng mga kasama ang tungkol kay Miisha.

His mind was suddenly occupied by her unpredictable personality. Para itong may dalawang extreme personalities. She is capable of being too sweet and kind but also, she can be too mean and too rude anytime.  He's starting to get curious about her background.There must be reasons for her unusual attitude. He wants to know those reasons first before he decides kung tuluyan na bang tatanggalin ang babae sa grupo o hindi.

"Jacob?" ulit ni Laarni.

Saka lamang natauhan si Jacob mula sa malalim na pag-iisip. Nagtaka siya nang makitang nakatingin ang lahat sa kanya.

"Y-Yes?" aniya.

"We're asking your opinion about Miisha. Most of the officers want her out but since you're the one who gave her the chance to become a provisional member maybe what you have to say will matter most," paliwanag ng sekretarya.

Bununtong-hininga siya. Nababasa niya na sa mukha ng mga kagrupo na inaasahan ng mga itong tatanggalin niya na si Miisha. He chuckled and acted as if he isn't thinking much about the issue.

"I'm the one who take her in so I'll take the responsibility of weighing the situation kung kailangan na ba talaga natin siyang tanggalin ngayon. The image of our club will always be my priority.... but before that let me talk  to our dean about her first."

He sighed and smiled to everyone.

"Let's not take too much time talking about a student who's not even a regular member yet," he said half joking to lighten the mood in the room. "Let's move on to our next agenda-"
