Nabil's eyes shot up in shock.
"What..? Adelle.."
He started, his eyes full of tears.
"Quiet, Nabil."
I ordered, then set my eyes at the principal.
"You want to suspend my brother because of his 'affect on students' ? Sure, do it."

Even Rajwan was confused. I glanced at them, before I continue.
"Don't you even dare to think about it, because if you did, I swear I'll sue you."
The principal's eyes shot up towards me.

"You heard me. If you suspend my brother from school, I'll sue you, and I have all the rights to do that, because instead of supporting Nabil and encourage him to do well at school and tell him not to listen to his suicidal thoughts, you tell me to suspend him ? What's the heck is your problem ?!"
I yelled, despite Rajwan's attempt to calm me down.

I got up, and leaned at the principal's desk, looking into his eyes with cold glares.
"Then I'll tell you, Mr Principal..my brother doesn't suffer from suicidal thoughts. Those cuts were an accident, and something that isn't from your concern. You shouldn't know why it happened, and I won't bother explaining. I'll be making sure you're doing your job alright, Mr Principal. Not punishing anyone for wrist cuts, or long hair, or whatever the damn you do with boys schools."

I took a glance at both of my brothers, to find them staring at me in order to continue.
"I'll also make sure that my brother is happy here. Lucky for you, every sixth-grader exchange schools after they're done with elementary school, and we don't have to see your face after this is all over."

I stood up straight, still looking in to the old man's eyes.
"Normally I would now wish a good day to you, but, in this case I wouldn't."
I motioned to my brothers to get us as I headed to the door.

In Another Place :

Barron walked up the stairs, and found the cast.
"Hey, where is Adelle ?"
He asked, his breathing fast from climbing the stairs.
Before anyone could answer, he was welcomed by a furious Judy, whose attempt was to storm towards the stairs.

She stopped a little before him, her eyes more furious.
"Stop asking about Adelle !"
She yelled, pushing him away with a fist through his chest as she went to the stairs.

He looked around him, confused, about to rub the pain away from his chest with his hand.
"She's jealous."
Hayden answered nonchalantly.

...

"Thanks for standing up for me."
Nabil muttered sadly, a little bit of happiness in his voice. I stretched my arms out and hugged him tightly, bringing Rajwan as well in the hug so we were all group-hugging.

"You're welcome, Nabil. We'll always be there for you."
I assured, earning a smile from him as I surrounded him with one arm.
"What time is it ?"
I asked nonchalantly.
"Eleven thirty."
Rajwan answered, glancing into his phone's screen.

My eyes widened.
"Oh my god, we have school !..listen, Nabil, you want to wait for me ? You can wait with the cast, and after we're done, we'll go home together."

"Sounds good."
Nabil answered.

To Be Continued..
