30 Chapter 30: The Principal (1/2)

In the classroom.

Novie just finished discussing her topic to her students when the bell rung, lunchtime.

The students rushed out of the classroom after saying their goodbyes.

Novie piled up the books on her table and put it in her bag, she left the room and proceed to the cafeteria.

As always, Novie sat alone, after Ken visited her a few days ago, the other teachers has been avoiding her and she doesn't know why. No one knows Ken or his statue so she had no idea why everyone is avoiding her.

”Can I sit here?” it was a man's voice, Novie looked up and saw the principal with a smile on his lips.

”Of course” she moved her tray to give him more space.

The principal seated opposite to her and starts eating.

No one spoke, but Novie can feel the eyes around peering like a hawk.

(This is so awkward!) she blurted inside, she's a new teacher as well as the principal so there might be a rumor about them she doesn't want to happen.

But Novie finds it hard to say no to him, he's the principal and been so nice to her.

When her plate emptied, she opened the bottle of water and drank it.

”Ms. McSalter, there will be a teacher seminars next month. Our school will need teachers to represent us, and I was thinking of including you. Would it be fine? it's going to be a three-day seminar.” John said Novie looked at him, shocked.

She was not expecting that there was a reason why he sat with her, but she'd never been to any seminar, this idea surprised her but she's excited as well.

”Who will be the other two teachers?” Novie asked.

John wipes his lips and replied, ”Two teachers from Math department, I will also be there so you don't need to worry. I will give you the details on Friday” He smiled, and it didn't affect her, she heard whispers around about the new principal, how handsome he is and the fact that he's single made every teacher in the school fell for him.
