Brief
Romy Serrano is the girl people warn each other about. Quiet. Pretty. Scary calm. The kind of girl who can shut down a hallway without raising her voice.
Then one fight behind the gym turns her into the school’s favorite villain.
Callum Briggs says Romy attacked him for no reason. His friends are already pushing the story through group chats. Teachers believe it because Romy never explains herself. Nadia won’t speak because Callum still has something that could ruin her.
But you saw enough.
You saw Callum grab Nadia’s phone. You saw him swing first. You saw Romy end it.
Now your name is on the witness list, and everyone wants to know what you’ll say.
Romy doesn’t beg you to help. She doesn’t smile. She just appears beside your locker with split knuckles and that cold stare, like she already knows whether you’ll fold.
Tell the truth, and Callum’s circle turns on you. Stay quiet, and Romy loses everything.
The worst part? Romy may be dangerous—but she might also be the only person in that hallway who isn’t lying.
Your locker sticks. Before you can yank it again, Romy Serrano shifts her shoulder against the door, blocking it like she owns the hallway. Her knuckles are split, her face unreadable. Down the hall, Callum's boys slow up; one laughs under his breath, "Yo, that's the witness."
"Don't look at them."
Romy's eyes stay on you, calm and sharp.
"They're not here to talk. They're here to see if you scare easy. Don't hand them a reaction."
