ELI“The one time I decide to skip school, this happens” Igroans into the phone“Relax” Maya says “It's not like anything significant happened. I only recognized them from the other day”“You saw them?” I asked“Yes, I did. They were more today” Maya said and my heart skipped a beat, “Just one more” but it didn't make it any better.“Ugggghhhh” I groaned again into the phone“Are you okay?” Maya asked“Do I sound okay?”She didn't answer.“I need air,” I said, getting up from my bed and walking towards the window.“What if they call me in next?” I asked suddenly. “Well I'm not even on the premises but what if they do?”“Relax, they won't”“Huh? How are you so sure.?”“They just left Eli”“Oh. But that doesn't mean anything you know. They could call for me or come back”“Yes, they might”I breathed, “I don't think I can do that. Not after surviving Holloway”“If they do, don't go alone then. Or don’t say shit when they ask”“Yeah, yeah I know that”“I’m coming over” she blurted.“What

CARTERI had been trying to read an article but I was staring at the same paragraph for a while.I was in ghost mode for the past two day and there were no regrets about it. Even though Liam tried calling me once and I didn't bother to answer. I just needed time away from the rest of the world.I had only texted my mother to let her know I was okay, especially after everything.I kept rereading the words on my screen that refused to settle into meaning when my phone rang. Dean Holloway’s name appeared on my screen.I straightened up and picked the call.“Dean” I answered“Professor Vale” he said, skipping pleasantries “You’re not on seat?”“Yes I am not”“Well, I need you to come in now. We have representatives from the ethics board here for a meeting”I exhaled slowly, “I'm home”“I assumed as much, how quickly can you get here?”I hesitated for a minute, “I’ll be there in a second”“Okay. Good”Then the line went dead.I grabbed my keys and jacket without thinking too hard about it.

ELIBy lunchtime, Maya and I had turned a quiet corner in the garden into our unofficial headquarters.Her notebook was open between us, pages filled with names, arrows, and question marks. Mine looked just as chaotic, though I liked to pretend it was organized. We weren’t exactly investigators, but we were getting there.We went over some points again like the fact that Carter never had any feud with anyone.She glanced at me. “You’re really enjoying this, aren’t you?”“I wouldn’t say enjoying,” I replied. “More like… bothered enough to not drop it.”“Good”“What about Dante Hue?” he seems close to Professor Vale.“No no, trust me, they're tight. That's Carter’s best man there”“Hmm” Maya sighed.That was when footsteps stopped near our table.V F Maya reacted instantly, snapping her notebook shut. I followed, sliding mine beneath a textbook just as Liam’s presence registered fully. I didn’t need to look up to know it was him, there was something unmistakably confident about the way

CARTERI sat on the edge of the couch with my jacket still on and my elbows resting on my knees. I hadn’t taken it off since arriving, as if I stayed half-ready to leave, the weight of the evening wouldn’t settle fully on my shoulders.Dante handed me a glass but he didn't speak right away. “He already knew” I said finally, staring into the amber liquid. “I don't think they knew the details but they knew just enough to make it look ugly”Dante leaned against the counter. “Your father?”“Yes.” I exhaled slowly. “An ethics board member called him. An old friend. Asked if he was related to me, as if I were a liability he forgot to declare.”Dante shook his head, “that’s bad”“He didn’t ask if it was true,” I continued. “He asked why I was humiliating the family. If I’d lost control.” My jaw tightened. “As if that’s the only thing that matters.”“And what about Liam?” Dante asked carefully.I let out a short, humorless laugh. “I’m sure he every second of it. Well, before I punched father

EliI sat cross-legged on Maya’s bed with my laptop balanced on my knees, the soft glow of the screen reflecting off tired eyes. Outside, rain tapped lightly against the window.“So,” Maya said, spinning slowly in her chair, “if someone tipped off the ethics board, they had to know what they were doing.I nodded. “Or at least know enough to sound convincing.We started off by searching for Carter on the internet, whatever we could find, his school days, the opening of his firm, and when he started working at the university. Just anything we could find.“The year he opened his firm too” Maya typed while I talked.“Son of respected Billionaire lawyer, Carter Vale, launches his very own law firm today” Maya read aloud. “Big law firm, Old family, Good reputation. Our very own Professor Vale has zero scandals on the internet. Well, yet. But seriously, no lawsuits, or messy fights, or even divorces”“That‘s what makes it so weird” I said quietly. “People don’t just wake up and decide to rui

CARTERThe sound of our laughter filled the entire office. It wasn’t even lunch break yet and Dante was seated in my office as we talked about old times.Dante cracked another joke and I was halfway through laughing when my phone started vibrating.“You don’t check your phone when you’re laughing,” Dante said, leaning back in his chair. “That’s either family or bad news.”I glanced at the screen. He wasn’t wrong.My smile faded, “I need to take this” I said, already standing.“I told you so” he mumbled as he twirled a pen between his fingers.“What’s going on?” I asked, stepping away from the table.But my father didn’t bother with greetings.“Come to the house” he said “Now”I frowned, “I’m in the middle of…”“This is not a request Carter”The line went dead.I stood there for a moment, phone still pressed to my ear, the quiet buzzing where the call had ended feeling louder than it should have. When I returned to the table, Dante took one look at my face and sighed.“Well, I did warn
