“Hands at your sides, ladies, don’t rub them. You find yourself in this position because you were disobedient, this will remind you to obey rules set by your elders.” Virginia stared at the two, clearly in great discomfort. After about a minute she said, “Hands up!” and repeated the dose. “Hands down! You are not to be out of bounds, you will remain lady-like. There will be no pubbing at this school!” Both were clearly going to be crying after the next round, Virginia could see. Good! Better this than another horrible incident. That young boy was still in prison, the young girl disgraced. “Hands up!” The strap flicked down again on each hand, that made six, normally the maximum, but this merited extra.
