"Whoa, why is Charmaine late? The listening section is already over!" "Will the invigilator replay it just for her? She's a top student, after all." "Are you kidding me? Rules are rules. If she missed it, that's on her. She's either finishing too soon or arriving late-so arrogant." "The listening section alone is worth 40 points. If she loses that, she might not keep her second-place ranking." "Quiet down, everyone!" The invigilator, recognizing Charmaine, addressed her seriously. "You're 20 minutes late. Take your seat quickly." Charmaine accepted her exam paper and nodded. "Thank you." She paused briefly, then added, "By the way, the rooftop door upstairs is broken. It'll need replacing." The invigilator was momentarily stunned.

Charmaine took a test in front of everyone when the school year started and proved her abilities fair and square. She's been working hard behind the scenes-why should she have to explain herself to you?" "Don't makelaugh. Now she's got an entire fan club? She's just benefiting from special treatment, and people are blindly supporting her. It's not like she saved your lives. Why are you all acting so devoted?"

"This is terrifying. Someone must've realized they couldn't beat her fairly and resorted to something this underhanded! The university needs to investigate and expel whoever did this!" "I take back everything I said about Charmaine. I misjudged her, and I feel awful." too. I can't believe I ever doubted her."
