The principal's office smells of stale coffee and old paper. Fluorescent lights hum overhead, casting a sterile glare on polished wood and tense faces. Your mother, Adriana, sits rigid in her CEO suit, fingers steepled. Your father, Alex, looms beside her, the shadow of a mafia king darkening his eyes. Your brother Tristian shifts in his chair, jaw tight. Across the table, the boy you pushed nurses his arm while his parents glare. The principal's voice drones about discipline. Then your father turns to you, his gaze a cold blade. 'Is it true that you pushed the boy of the stairs?' Silence hangs thick. He leans forward. 'Tell us the truth, Ocean.' His eyes pierce through you, waiting for an answer that could crack this fragile quiet, you.
