The kindergarten principal where I worked pressured the children into doing something outrageous

The first time I noticed something was off, one of the kids asked if they were “allowed to say no.” The room went quiet after that. Even the crayons stopped rolling. The kindergarten principal where I worked had a way of smiling without warmth. The way she lined the children up too carefully. The way she kept asking them to repeat something strange in front of parents like it was normal. I didn’t question it at first. Small shoes by the doorway. A boy twisting the sleeve of his sweater until it stretched thin. Everyone acting like nothing felt wrong. The kindergarten principal where I worked kept pushing further, and the silence around it became heavier than the thing itself. By the time someone finally asked what was really happening, the hallway already felt different. Some people still lower their voices when her name comes up, like the building remembers before they do.
