instantly with the other children.
As for Brielle, she had errands to run that morning and left for a bit.
“Kneel down!” A furious, sharp voice rang out nearby, full of anger. “You've been goofing off and not studying!
An A-minus? Are you trying to embarrass me?”
A crisp, harsh sound cut through the air.
A man gripped a ruler in his hand, striking the boy with it again and again. The boy hung his head low, wet bangs
clinging to his forehead, and a burning red mark was stamped across his cheek.

“What's it to you?” the man snapped, not even bothering with politeness. “Get lost, you nosy brat!”
“Who are you telling to get lost?” Kristian’s cold voice cut in like ice, full of quiet menace.
