Chapter 2: The Punishment
I stepped back from my student, shaking out my hands. He, no, she was now looking around with very clear eyes, and much more confident body language. “That was very impressive, Mary. You got all the rules right! Great job!” I then reached into my blouse pocket and pulled out the light remote, switching on the lights above a large chest of clothing and a small, used makeup table in the left corner of the room. “Now, why don’t you go get dressed up for me?”
As expected, she made a bright smile, thrust her hands into the air and cheered. “Yay! I got them all right this time! Thank you my Queen! You know how hard I’ve been trying to memorize those this past week.” It seemed like lately everyone around here was praising me for my teaching abilities now, it was a nice feeling.
Always eager to please, Mary jumped out of the seat and rushed over to the chest of clothing. Without hesitation, she threw off her school uniform jacket, and then started working on the other articles of clothing she was wearing. While she did this, I picked up the homework notes that had fallen out of her lap, put them back into Magnus’ backpack, and pushed that to the side. It would appear that Magnus needed to study those notes a little more.
