The Quiet Was Final Chapter 10
"I used to see you topping the class and thought you were just a nerd, buried in books, clueless about life's subtler points."However, once I really got to know you, I realized you're a blast to be around, super smart, and just plain fun."He gave a wry smile. "I knew you had been keeping tabs on me back then. Every time I hit the court, you'd act like you were just walking by, but I caught you every time."I played my heart out because I knew you'd be there, showing off on purpose, hoping you'd notice me... I had cared about you in secret for a long while."He inhaled deeply, his gaze falling. "I didn't come here to beg you to take me back."I never deserved you, not really. That month we had was a gift, a chance you had given me. The fact that you liked me at all was the luckiest break I've ever had."And now, I'm even less deserving."He finished speaking and slowly reached out, opening his hand.I looked down to see a tiny ring: the custom ring I had lost at his place a ye
The Quiet Was Final Chapter 9
Jocelyn thought she could just wash her hands of the whole mess, but things did not go her way.Once the scandal broke, the Internet was flooded with her dirty laundry.Flirting with her advisor, snatching her best friend's boyfriend, intimidating underclassmen, tormenting her roommate, and there was even a girl who had to take a break and switch schools because of her mean-girl antics...More and more of the girls she had tormented stepped up, calling her out by name all over social media.[I've been dying to spill the tea on her! Big thanks to Tessa for giving us a voice!][Jocelyn's so-called rep is nothing but a sham. She's totally rotten inside!]As the backlash grew, Jocelyn's name was mud.Her grades were not bad, and she shot her shot with a bunch of colleges, but they all shut her down during interviews."Given the serious doubts about your character, we can't offer you a spot."In the end, she did not make it into any college and just had to watch her dreams slip awa

The room went silent. Everyone was caught off guard.I lifted my hand, signaling to the tech crew. "Can you pull up the original video file we just watched? Zoom in on that part, please."The big screen flicked to life again.The video slowed to a crawl, crystal clear.People crowded forward, squinting at the screen, until someone let out a surprised yelp. "Whoa, hold up! Something's definitely off here.""The movements are all jerky...and the skin texture's way off...""Looks like some kind of computer animation, doesn't it?"I kept my voice steady as I explained, "That's a dynamic animation model I created. I used a game engine I got to know back when I was dabbling in game design. It's been tweaked a bit, with algorithms to make a simulated video. Sorry for the mix-up at today's meeting."However, if I hadn't stepped in with my own broadcast…" I paused, my eyes locking on Jocelyn. "Well, the footage you'd be watching would've been of the actual me."The crowd inhaled sharpl

I continued to smile and said, "Those bullies you rounded up last night? They're still cooling their heels at my place."My gaze slid over to him, and my voice dropped an octave."Eric, you've got my house keys. Why don't you go and check if those are the same guys you know so well?"Eric's face crumbled, his lips paled, and he froze like he was turned to stone.The other students started buzzing like a kicked hornet's nest."No way! She caught some bullies?!""She was onto it the whole time? Talk about a reverse trap!""Eric's toast..."The cops in the room snapped to attention, their eyes on Eric, ready to pounce at any second.Eric was sweating bullets, his eyes darting around in sheer panic, his lips quivering as he said, "No... It wasn't me... I swear it wasn't... I can explain. It really wasn't me!"However, I just chuckled, like I was watching a clown perform. "You know where you really screwed up?"He just gaped at me, eyes wide with fear and begging.I strolled up

The tech guy said, "Looks like they're still on the remote end, and they've just sent us a live video call request."The cop gave a dismissive snort. "Pretty bold. Let's take the call! I'm curious to see who's behind this."Jocelyn's face twisted with desperation. "Officer, you've got to catch her! Don't let her slip away!"The next second, the video was live.The high-def feed showed up on the big screen in the hall.There I was, standing in the airport lounge in a plain white dress, a suitcase by my side, and the flight info scrolling behind me.I looked right at them through the camera, a slow smile spreading across my lips, and gave a casual wave. "Bet you didn't see this coming, huh?"The room went wild."Tessa?! She's behind all this from the airport?!""No way! She set this up ahead of time!"Jocelyn went white as a ghost, pointing at the screen, her voice filled with rage as she shouted, "I knew it was you! You're behind all this trouble! I wasn't wrong about you, was

The screen flicked to a new image, and the crowd let out a collective gasp.There was Jocelyn's face, smack in the middle of the big screen.She froze, her face going ghostly white as if she had been clobbered over the head.A second later, she bolted for the control panel, frantically trying to kill the feed."Shut it down! Shut it down! Do it now!"However, no matter how hard she mashed the buttons, the system was like it was in lockdown, not budging an inch.She could only watch, horrified, as her every action was broadcast for all to see, her look of bliss and madness blown up for the whole world to watch.The whispers in the crowd swelled. Snickers and murmurs filled the air, the thrill of gossip undeniable."Is that Jocelyn?""Didn't she just rip into Tessa?""Oh, this just got juicy..."Jocelyn's composure shattered, and she shrieked. "It's Tessa! She's framing me! She's behind this!"With AI tech being what it is these days, faking videos with AI face-swaps is a pie
