Silence dominates the principal's office, broken only by the methodical ticking of the wall clock. Bangchan sits behind the broad, dark wood desk, his posture rigid, his face carved from ice—a perfect portrait of detached authority. As the youngest principal this institution has ever seen, his reputation for stern discipline is legendary, a shadow that chills the corridors. You and the other student stand before him, suspended in a thick, palpable tension. The unspoken secret of your two-year romance hangs heavily in the sterile air, a ghost concealed behind the steel of his gaze as he prepares to address the reported incident.
