The scene unfolding before Morwenna was straight out of a daytime drama, leaving her utterly flabbergasted.
Up until now, Sandra had been nothing short of a tornado. She had physically confronted Morwenna not once, but twice, and still, she relentlessly sought confrontation. Behind the scenes, Sandra had been a constant thorn in Keira's side, going so far as to order hundreds of pounds worth of stuff, expecting her to lug it around daily. The harsh words had flown thick and fast.
And now this sudden act of contritionâkneeling?
There she was, Sandra, on her knees, her face a picture of despair, pleading, âMorwenna, I truly realize my mistakes now. Please, I beg you, forgive me!â
Sandraâs plea was so loud that it drew a crowd from the dorm, all curious to catch a glimpse of the unfolding drama. Stepping out, they found Sandra, a figure well-known among the freshmen for her domineering behavior, kneeling before Morwenna. Sandra, with her small entourage, was infamous for stirring trouble on a daily basis, targeting one person after another. Those without any significant backing dared not cross her.
And as for the rivalry between Sandra and Morwennaâit was the talk of the campus. After all, it was hard to miss Morwenna, burdened with carrying heavy loads across campusâa clear sign of Sandraâs tyranny. Speculations were rife on how long Morwenna could withstand such treatment. In a world driven by power and wealth, how could a scholarship student like Morwenna stand a chance against someone of Sandraâs stature?
Yet, here they were, witnessing a scene theyâd never have imaginedâa repentant Sandra seeking Morwennaâs forgiveness. The crowd buzzed with speculation and gossip.
âWhat on earth happened? I must be dreaming. Could it be that we misunderstood the whole Sandra-bullying-Morwenna saga?â
âWas Morwenna the actual bully all along?â
âSince when did college life become so filled with schemes?â
âI told you, thereâs no way Morwenna is as innocent as she seems. This must be some sort of act. Remember how everyone sided with her, feeling sorry for her plight?â
âAnd now, look at thisâSandra is on her knees apologizing.â
Gossip, especially in a female dormitory, was as common as morning coffee, and the whispers and theories were endless.
Morwenna frowned slightly, still in the dark about the real reason behind Sandraâs dramatic gesture. As the murmurs sided with Sandra, she doubled down, bowing her head repeatedly against the ground, her actions drawing winces from the onlookers.

Human nature tends to sympathize with the underdog, and despite Sandraâs notorious reputation, this vulnerable display softened many hearts among the crowd.
âIsnât this a bit much? Making someone apologize like this in public?â
âShe looks genuinely remorseful. Maybe itâs time to forgive and forget. Weâre all part of the same university community, after all.â
âLetâs not stoop to petty vindictiveness. Weâre educated people, not gangsters. Thereâs no need for such humiliation.â
Hearing the crowd rally to her defense, Sandraâs spirits lifted. She knew Morwennaâs kind-hearted nature all too well, especially given her history of standing up for Keira.
Indeed, Morwenna was as forgiving as she was gentle.
