The Superintendent squinted her eyes in slippery suspicion. In the darkness of the closet, the boy watched in feverish fear. His brows were beaded with sweat and he covered his mouth, in case a gasp escaped his lips.


Soon, the Superintendent gazed directly towards the closet. The boy froze and his bit his lips, he didn’t know if she was staring but he was on edge.


The superintendent grunted and she slammed the door behind her. The boy heaved a sigh of relief, but no sound came out. He was still afraid to make a sound.


The boy lowered his eyes to the ground, as he quietly stumbled out.
