The Blackened Glass

It was a typical school day that PFS student Ah Seng (Not his real name) was having. As usual, he arrived in school before the sun peeks from the horizon. He was early today, the first few ones in school. The dimly lit corridor is as desolate as it gets, after all, it was only 6am.

He was walking past the classrooms when suddenly the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a figure in his class. It must be another student then, he thought to himself. When he tries to enter, he finds that all the doors were still locked.

He knocked at the door. He could only gasp when the most eerie pair of eyes met his own. He was not the first, as many also saw figures around the school. After that day, the school could only paint the windows shut.

Okay, that is the explanation I heard for something unusual in PFS. If you walk along the main corridor, the windows on most of old class rooms are painted black as though to make sure no one can look into them.

More sensible explaination: School vandals think that it would be funny, so they spray painted the windows black. Then instead of removing the paint, the handyman comes along and paints the frame, leaves the glass black! Ta da! ARTISTIC UTILITY, blocks the sun, no need to clean windows and no need to use the bathrooms to change! Weee...
