“I just got a bit carried away, that’s all. Normally we don’t hurt each other this badly…”

The poor lad didn’t know what to say next. And, really, he should have kept his mouth shut, because what he went on to say unleashed a storm.

“And besides, we’re not the only ones. Yesterday Alex pushed Éric into the wall. And last week—”

Miss Charlotte interrupted him. She’d understood that all of us got into a fight every now and again. And it was all too clear that our new teacher came from some bizarre country or faraway planet where punch-ups are unheard of.

“I don’t want to hear another word!” she said categorically.

Then Miss Charlotte got up, slowly smoothed out the creases in her dress and readjusted her hat. She walked to the door with measured steps and a straight back. Before disappearing she simply turned round and told us:

“You can tell Mr Laporte that I hand in my notice. He’ll receive my official resignation by post.”

And she left us.
