Chapter 35

The locker’s owner Sydnee was as shocked as Lilla. 

“I-I don’t know…” she shook her head. “I don’t know why there are nails in my locker. These aren’t mine.” 

“Whose then, if they aren’t yours?” Mina chimed in. “I was wondering why you were sneaking around the locker earlier this morning, so that’s what you were up to.” 

“I didn’t!” Sydnee shook her head frantically looking to me for help. “It wasn’t me, Luna.” 

It wasn’t her. That was what my gut was telling me. 

The look in her eyes is genuine. However… 

“We have both witnesses and evidence. Do you still want to argue against it?” 

“But… I really didn’t!” Sydnee took Lilla’s hand. “You believe me, right? We grew up together!” 

Lilla looked troubled, but she still said, “Luna, I don’t think it’s Sydnee. Maybe we should search a few more lockers?”
