NAME:  Karen Schmidt<br/>ROLE IN SCHOOL:  English Teacher<br/>TIME OF DAY:  Early evening<br/>LOCATION:  Library<br/>TAGGING:  Jake Crow (exiting) and Aaron Shaw<br/><br/>Karen listened as Jake interacted with Aaron and her jaw dropped, her eyes wide as she stared after the teen as he all but skipped around them and ran out.  Her left eye gave a twitch as she stared, still gaping.  He'd...really just thrown her under the bus like that.  After a second, she became aware of Mr. Shaw once more and her mouth snapped shut as she flushed a scarlet hue.  "I, uhm," she started, licking her lips.  What did she say here?  Accuse Jake of lying?  ...How childish would that be?  But to have his lie accepted by the Dean could be potentially damaging to her reputation with the man!  Flustered and frustrated, she stood there for a long silent moment before gathering herself up.  "Well, I suppose I shouldn't push my students so hard, should I?" she said with a weak smile, her eyes flitting back to the computer where her documents were awaiting completion.
