Скачать или смотреть Bullies Grabbed Shy Girl's Books — Seconds Later, Her Twin Sister's Fury Was Unleashed

The autumn rain drummed against the windows of Lincoln High School as seventeen-year-old Maya Chen clutched her physics textbook closer to her chest, navigating the crowded hallway with practiced invisibility. Her dark hair fell like a curtain around her face, a shield she'd perfected over years of avoiding unwanted attention. Maya had always been the quiet one, the twin who preferred equations to conversations, who found solace in the predictable world of numbers and formulas rather than the chaotic social hierarchy of high school.

Maya's identical twin sister, Zara, was her complete opposite in every way that mattered. Where Maya was soft-spoken and gentle, Zara was fierce and outspoken. Where Maya avoided conflict, Zara seemed to magnetize toward it. The only things they shared, besides their striking resemblance, were their fierce loyalty to each other and their parents' expectations that they'd both excel academically. But even in academics, they'd chosen different paths—Maya excelled in the sciences while Zara dominated in debate and literature.

The sisters had an unspoken understanding. Maya stayed out of Zara's way during school hours, and Zara tried to respect Maya's need for anonymity. It wasn't that they didn't love each other—quite the opposite. Their bond was deeper than most siblings could ever understand. They shared that mysterious twin connection that people always talked about, the one where they could sense each other's emotions across distances, finish each other's thoughts, and know instinctively when the other was in trouble.

This particular Thursday started like any other. Maya had arrived early to school, as was her custom, preferring the quiet hallways before the chaos of eight hundred teenagers descended. She'd spent the morning in the library, reviewing her calculus homework and preparing for her chemistry quiz. The familiar routine brought her comfort—the same table by the window, the same mechanical pencil, the same thermos of green tea her mother had prepared.

As the first period bell approached, Maya gathered her books and made her way toward her Advanced Placement Chemistry class. She loved chemistry for its precision, the way molecules behaved according to predictable rules, unlike the unpredictable nature of teenage social dynamics. Her teacher, Mrs. Rodriguez, had already hinted that Maya was likely to be the class valedictorian in the sciences, a prospect that both thrilled and terrified her.
