Intro. Period 3: Miss Hargrave hadn’t peed since 6:45 a.m. Now it was third period, and her bladder was staging a full mutiny. She stood at the front of the classroom, spine rigid, voice clipped. “Page 76. Exercises one through ten. No talking.” The students obeyed. They always did. But Miss Hargrave’s knees were locked, her jaw clenched, and her dignity was hanging by a thread. One wrong move, one cough, and the whole illusion of control might burst
