A week passed like this. During that time, Subin kept contacting Raha every day.
Finally, the school reopened.
Raha went to school again, but this time her heart was filled with fear.
As soon as she stepped into the classroom, Rabina suddenly shoved her hard.
Raha lost her balance and fell to the floor.
She looked at them helplessly.
Rabina smirked and said mockingly,
"Oh shit! I thought you were Meena, so I pushed you. Don't mind, okay?"
The whole class burst into laughter.
Raha immediately understood. They had started bullying her now.
Without saying anything, she quietly got up and walked to her seat.
Grace leaned toward her and whispered,
"Hey… now your bodyguard Subin isn't here anymore."
Raha lowered her head and stayed silent.
Just then, Shawn entered the classroom.
Seeing Raha, he walked straight toward her.
"How are you? I haven't seen you for so many days."
Rabina, Bella, and Grace made annoyed faces and went back to their seats.
Bella whispered,
"Hmph. First she trapped Rohan, now this guy."
Rabina replied,
"Not just Rohan… even Subin."
Raha nodded slightly and gestured that she was fine.
Shawn looked very happy seeing her again. He was so focused on her that he didn't even notice what was happening around him.
At that moment, Rohan entered the classroom.
He didn't react to anything and quietly sat in his seat.
Shawn walked up to him.
"Hey. What's going on?"
Rohan glanced at Raha before replying calmly,
"What could be going on? Nothing."
Shawn frowned.
"You're doing something really wrong."
Rohan replied seriously,
"Look… whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it after thinking carefully. So please don't judge me."
Shawn didn't say anything more and left for his own class.
Rohan looked at Raha again, put on his headphones, and lowered his head.
Meanwhile Bella whispered,
"Ugh! Why did Rohan even come today? I thought he wouldn't."
Rabina smirked.
"Just watch. I'll deal with Raha right in front of him."
Raha looked at them nervously and lowered her head again.
Soon the teacher entered and the class began.
But this time Mr. Lee wasn't there.
Raha wondered silently if he had left the school.
When the class ended, the teacher said,
"Rohan… the principal has called you to the office."
Rabina, Bella, and Grace secretly looked delighted.
Rohan left the classroom.
The moment he was gone, Grace walked up to Raha and suddenly hit her hard on the head.
The pain was intense.
Raha grabbed her head as tears rolled down her cheeks.
Bella grabbed Raha's collar angrily.
"How dare you hold Rohan's hand in his room?!"
Raha was shocked hearing this accusation.
She immediately shook her head in denial.
Rabina scoffed angrily.
"Look at her. She looks so innocent, but she's actually such a shameless girl."
Bella pushed Raha hard.
She fell to the floor again.
Just then—
"What the hell is going on here?!"
Rohan's furious voice echoed in the classroom.
Bella and Grace instantly fell silent.
Rohan looked at them angrily.
"Don't you people have any shame? After causing such a huge scandal, you still aren't satisfied? The school's reputation is being destroyed and you don't even care!"
Then he looked at them sharply.
"And what did Raha even do?"
Raha quietly stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Rabina stepped toward Rohan and asked,
"Then who told the police about everything?"
Rohan glared at her.
"I have no interest in talking to you. Move."
Then he added coldly,
"And listen carefully—Raha didn't tell the police anything."
With that, he stormed out of the classroom.
Raha stood near the school railing, holding her head and crying quietly.
When Rohan saw her, he walked over.
Raha quickly wiped her tears when she noticed him.
"What did they do to you?" Rohan asked softly.
Raha glared at him angrily.
Rohan sighed.
"Fine… if you don't want to tell me, that's okay. Just stop crying like this."
Still angry, Raha turned around and walked back to the classroom.
Rohan watched her leave, feeling guilty.
"That day… I really shouldn't have treated her like that," he murmured to himself.
He followed her back into the classroom.
Everyone had fallen silent.
Even Rabina, Bella, and Grace said nothing.
The rest of the school day passed quietly.
Finally, the final bell rang and students began leaving the school.
Raha also walked out of the classroom.
Just then, Aisha came from behind while drinking juice.
She accidentally bumped into Raha.
The entire juice spilled over Raha's uniform.
"Oh! I'm really sorry, Raha! I didn't notice!" Aisha said loudly.
Raha gestured that it was okay.
But Aisha kept apologizing.
Soon the hallway became empty as everyone left.
Then Aisha said,
"Umm… come to the bathroom and wash it. Otherwise the stain will stay."
Raha nodded and went to the bathroom.
The moment she entered—
Aisha quickly locked the door from outside.
"Perfect," Aisha laughed quietly.
At that moment Rabina, Bella, and Grace arrived.
"You did a good job today," Rabina said with a creepy smile.
Then the three girls walked away laughing.
Inside the bathroom, Raha washed the stain from her uniform.
But when she tried to leave—
She realized the door was locked.
Her heart started racing.
She began banging on the door desperately.
But the school building was already empty.
No one could hear her.
Outside the school gate, Rohan stood there for a while.
He looked around but didn't see Raha.
She must have gone home already…
So he left.
Shawn was also waiting outside for Raha.
Rabina approached him.
"Shawn Dela Cruz… what are you doing here? School is over."
"Hmmm… I'm waiting for Raha," Shawn replied while looking away.
He was clearly ignoring her.
Rabina became irritated.
"There's no one left in school. Raha probably already went home."
"What? But—" Shawn looked surprised.
Then he remembered that she looked a little tense earlier.
Maybe she really went home…
So Shawn also left.
Rabina walked out of the school laughing.
Meanwhile, inside the locked bathroom—
Raha kept banging on the door.
Her cries echoed through the empty hallway.
But there was no one left in the school to hear her.
