William said, "Sara has been likeable since young."
"I think she must be scheming." Nina replied in a disdainful tone, "The incident with Eva, she must have done it on purpose. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental!"
"Who knows." William smiled and said, "But I'm a little worried about her body. She's in poor health. She'll faint after running for less than five laps in PE class... I still remember that on the first year of high school, she fainted during PE class and was sent to the hospital.
"So coddled?" Nina sneered, "Don't worry. Our school's PE class is not that strict. I don't think she'll be able to fake it this time."
William just smiled and said nothing.
It didn't matter whether Nina got what she meant, as long as...
She looked at the back of the person who had gone away.
It would be fine as long as someone got what she meant.
The PE teacher was a strong man, about 182cm tall. His name was Chadrick Albert, his beefy muscles were exposed under the sports vest. He was also very handsome. Some bold girls liked to chat and laugh around him.
As Sara was short, she had to be separated from Freya, standing at the front of the line with shame. The PE teacher looked at Sara and said, "Count Off."
Sara replied, "One."
As the number went, everyone had arrived.
Chadrick nodded with satisfaction and said, "Last semester, the principal asked me to have a small meeting. He said that the amount of exercise that I usually gave were too little to achieve the purpose of training, so I will control the amount of your exercise strictly from this semester onwards. If you are absent or uncooperative, I will speak to your parents."
"So, run ten laps around the sports field first."
The sports field of Scrollania College was very large, running ten laps would kill them.
Immediately, a girl said, "Sir, we really can't run that much! Three laps are already suffering enough!"
Chadrick said, "You're always very lazy so you're so physically weak! All right, ten laps for boys and five laps for girls. Don't tell me that you have period pain! Unless your legs are broken, you must complete all the laps! Otherwise, ask your parents to come!"
Students that age were most afraid of having their parents come to school. After grumbling for a while, they didn't say anything anymore.
Sara was speechless. She withdrew her hand silently.
If I didn't run... What should I do if he asked for my parents?
It would be better to inform the PE teacher after two laps.
The team soon began to move. Boys and girls had different the physical strength after all. Soon, the boys took the lead. Scarlet was unwilling to fall behind, so she quickened her pace, frightening some boys who were running at a slow pace.
Just after running a lap, Sara already felt uncomfortable and her limbs began to turn to jelly. She pursed her lips, and then went to find the PE teacher, "...Mr. Albert."
Chadrick looked at her and asked, "What's wrong?"
Sara pursed her pale lips and said, "...I am not feeling well. May I stop running?"
Chadrick frowned, "Hey, are you new here? I've told you, five laps, and no less than it. Otherwise, you'll have to ask your parents to come to school immediately!"
Sara had no choice but to tell Chadrick about her illness. Chadrick said impatiently, "Every student uses different excuses for their laziness. Who are you fooling? Hurry back and continue to run! Otherwise, I'll call your guardian straightaway!"
Guardian...
It's Hank Bishop.
Sara bit her lip and then lowered her head, "...Okay."
I shouldn't cause trouble for Master Bishop.... It's just five laps... It should be okay... Sara comforted herself.
Freya looked at Sara and said worriedly. "Sara, are you alright? You don't look well."
Sara forced a smile, "...I'm okay."
Freya was really scared. She reached out her hand and said, "Come here, I'll hold your hand."
Sara nodded gratefully, letting Freya hold her.
Freya was startled at her cold hands, "Sara! Why is your hand so cold!"
Sara sighed and said, "I'm not in good health, so I can't do strenuous exercises..."
"Then you should inform Mr. Albert!" Freya thought Sara was silly, "Why do you insist on running in such a condition?"
"He said if I'm not going to run, he will call my guardian." Sara said in a low voice, "...I don't want to cause him any trouble."
Freya was extremely anxious, "How could this be! I'll take you to Mr. Albert!"
However, Chadrick still said the same thing. He even thought that Sara was pretending. Freya was about to explode in anger, "Mr. Albert, do you have a grudge against Sara! You are obviously going against her! Look at her, does she look like she's pretending?!"
"Freya, how could you talk to your teacher like that?" Chadrick said with dissatisfaction, "You're always like this, playing all kinds of tricks just because you don't want to run! Stop talking, keep running! There are two more laps left!"
Freya was so angry that she was about to beat him, but Sara managed to hold her back, "...Forget it."
"Let's continue running."
Sara licked her dry lips and then lowered her head, "Let's continue."
Sara felt dizzy and her limbs were weak... Her chest felt stuffy like it had been blocked by something soft, and she began to have trouble breathing. She could no longer inhale, but due to the intensity of the exercise, she had to gasp for air. The oxygen in her chest was getting less and less... Even her heart seemed to stop beating.
Sara opened her eyes in confusion. Her long eyelashes were wet with sweat. In front of her was circles of light, making the whole world become blurry.
...Three and a half laps... Four laps... Four laps...
She really couldn't hold on any longer.
Most people had already finished running. Nina sat by the side, resting and drinking water. She looked at William and said with schadenfreude, "I told you... You said she is in poor health, but I think she looks fine. She has already completed four laps."
William looked worried, "...Don't say that. Sara is really in poor health... Ah!"
She screamed and wanted to run to the sports field, but someone had already rushed over and carried Sara, who slumped to the ground in a faint. Freya was scared out of her wits. It was too distraught that a person beside her had fainted of a sudden. Her eyes were red-rimmed, "Brother Alex... Brother Alex, Sara......"
Alex's face clouded, "Why did she run in such condition?!"
Freya wiped her eyes and said, "Chadrick said he'd call our parents if we couldn't complete the laps. She doesn't want to bother her family......Sara will be all right, right?"
Chadrick, who was startled by the commotion, stood up and looked around. He immediately felt an icy-cold gaze fixed on him, it seemed like never-melting ice, which was about to condense into a sharp arrow and pierce through his organs.
Chadrick was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.
Alex looked away and hurried to the infirmary with Sara in his arms. Freya wiped her tears, pointed at Chadrick and said, "If anything happens to Sara, this isn't over!"
