High School Ain't a Musical Chapter 11
Ashley tried to find work as a supermarket clerk, but every application was rejected.After three weeks of searching, she finally secured a job washing dishes at a modest restaurant. The owner cut her wages, claiming that as a convicted criminal, she didn't deserve standard pay.Her earnings were so low that Ashley couldn't afford to rent a room. In the end, she moved into the restaurant's storage room, where the smell of smoke and grease from the kitchen lingered day and night.She woke at 5:30 a.m. every morning to begin washing dishes and didn't finish until 10:00 p.m. Her hands suffered from constant abrasion and prolonged exposure to detergent. Her joints became swollen and painful.The owner had a terrible temper and would start barking at her whenever the plates looked even slightly unclean. If she worked a little too slowly or accidentally left the smallest trace of oil on a plate, she would be met with a torrent of verbal abuse.One afternoon, she carried a basin of waste

Ashley scanned the courtroom and realized Regina hadn't attended the trial at all."I admit my guilt," she croaked.Her sentence was handed down around 3:00 p.m. For all her crimes combined, she received a three-year prison sentence and a 1,200-dollar fine.The realization that she would spend three years behind bars left her frozen.Two court officers escorted her from the witness stand.As she passed the last row of seats, she glanced at her parents.Her mother sat motionless, silent in her seat. Her father crouched beside his chair with his face buried in his hands.She stepped into the corridor outside. Rays of the setting sun filtered through a lone window, stretching her shadow across the floor. She walked through the door at the far end of the hall. When it closed behind her, it was as though she had disappeared from public view altogether.…A month passed after the trial.The janitor who had sold her access card to Ashley was fired from the hotel and sued for financi

For being an accessory to Ashley's crime, Eric's exam result that year was invalidated, and the offense was permanently recorded in his government file.He was the first to beg for mercy.[I was wrong, Regina! Please! Talk to the school for me! I can't have my exam invalidated! I've spent 12 years studying for this!]The others soon followed.[Regina, you know I'm just another victim of Ashley's scam! I'm innocent!][My mom hasn't had an appetite for three days since the notice arrived. She won't eat at all… Please help us!][Please, talk to the Education Ministry for us! I know you can change their minds…]I read every message without replying. Then I left our class WhatsApp group and deleted every means of contacting Ashley.After that, I blacklisted Eric's number and blocked every student involved in the incident.…I was sunbathing on the balcony when the results were released.With little interest, I entered my exam ID and personal identification number, only to discove

Riley went on for about twenty minutes before an officer finally warned her, "Your daughter intruded on a highly confidential meeting! That's no different from trespassing on a military base, ma'am! If you keep causing a scene, it'll only make it harder for her to receive a reduced sentence when she goes to trial!"Riley was stunned. She stopped making a scene, but that didn't mean she had given up. After learning where Regina's exam hall was, she hailed a cab and arrived there at noon.-I had just finished my first test when Riley dropped to her knees in front of me."Regina, right? You must be Regina! Please help!" she cried, grabbing my foot as though she were a servant pleading for mercy. "Please, I'm begging you! Please write an appeal to the court and explain that this was all a misunderstanding! I can use it to bail my daughter out! Please! I'm begging you!"I looked down at her. The commotion quickly drew the attention of students, teachers, and security personnel.The a

"Do you object to the above?" the officer asked.Ashley bit her lip. Her eyes remained fixed on her red, swollen wrists."How did you get the access card?"After a few seconds of silence, she murmured through clenched teeth, "We paid a janitor 115 dollars for it.""Whose idea was that?""Mine...""You were the one who prepared the door seal too, weren't you?""Yes."The officer flipped to another page. "According to the other students involved, you charged 80 dollars per person under the guise of making reservations despite having no authority or privilege to do so. Where did the money you collected go?"Ashley's teeth chattered. She swallowed. "I... hadn't managed to refund it.""I asked where the money went."She lowered her head. "I spent it."The officer immediately wrote down: [Possible fraud offense: 1,120 dollars.]Another officer's phone rang. He glanced at the screen and stepped out of the interrogation room to answer it.A minute later, he returned with a grim e

"Exactly! She collected 80 dollars from all of us! It was extortion!" another student chimed in."She said Regina Fairfax was providing the rooms on the 18th floor for free, and that the money we paid was just to secure our spots before anyone else could take them!"Ashley whipped around toward her friends and screamed at the top of her lungs, "Shut the fuck up!"Even Eric pointed at her. "It's true! This was all her idea! She said the hotel belongs to Regina, so nothing would happen to us if we squatted here for a few days! She tricked us into joining!"Ashley's pupils dilated with fear.Ernest ignored the students altogether and turned to Robert. "Inform their school. Call the cops as well."Robert nodded and began calling Middleton High's headmaster and the district HAT committee.Ashley collapsed onto the rug in horror."Don't call the cops! Please don't! I'm begging you! Don't call the cops!" she wailed through her tears. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean for any of this to happen
