I Became a Kindergarten Teacher for Monster Babies!-Chapter 287 Boo gossip

He hid behind the wall immediately, clutching his little hands together. "This is big! This is very big!" he muttered, grinning like a mischievous ghost who had just found treasure.

His glow brightened as he began floating back and forth. "Teacher and Principal hugged each other! Boo saw it with his own two shiny eyes! Oh, this is going to be legendary!"

He giggled to himself, the kind of giggle that started small and then turned into full-blown evil laughter. "Hehehehehe! Boo must tell everyone! The babies will scream! The wolves will howl! Even the fish boy will faint!"

Still laughing, he tried to twirl dramatically but hit the ceiling. "Ow! Boo’s excitement too powerful," he whispered, rubbing his glowing head.

Then, straightening up, he pointed dramatically toward the hallway. "This gossip must reach the world!"

And with that, he vanished into the walls, his echoing laughter bouncing down the corridor.

"Hehehehehe! Boo knows everything!"

Meanwhile, all the babies were having what looked like a peaceful lunch.

At least, that’s what it looked like from far away.

Drake was stuffing food into his tiny mouth like a squirrel preparing for winter. Crumbs covered his cheeks, and his little wings fluttered excitedly every time he found something he liked. "Mmm! Food tastes better when you eat fast!" he mumbled with his mouth full. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Across from him, Vlad Jr. sat with perfect posture, eating neatly with his fork and napkin folded on his lap. He glanced at Drake and sighed softly. "You eat like a dragon raised by wolves."

Drake looked up, cheeks puffed out. "Thank you!" he said proudly, clearly taking it as a compliment.

Meanwhile, Luna was growling under her breath. "Kelpie, stop splashing water on my plate!" she snarled, ears twitching in annoyance.

Kelpie, his blue hair damp and eyes innocent, blinked at her. "But my hands are slippery! It’s not my fault!"

Rocky, sitting beside them, tried to stay out of the fight but accidentally dropped his spoon and turned into a rock the moment Luna shouted again.

Luna groaned. "Great! Now he’s a pebble at lunch!"

"Hey, at least he’s quiet," Drake said between bites.

Lucien and Felix, sitting together near the end of the table, seemed to be the only ones eating peacefully. Felix was poking his food with a fork like it was suspicious.

Sable, on the other hand, wasn’t eating at all. He kept turning around in his seat, eyes scanning the room. "Where’s Boo? He promised to share his pudding with me!" he said shyly.

Drake snorted. "Ha! Boo probably got lost in the soup pot again!"

"No, no," Felix said with a dramatic whisper. "He’s up to something. Every time Boo disappears, something explodes or flies across the classroom."

Luna narrowed her eyes. "Or gossip spreads."

Everyone paused for a second.

Then, as if on cue, a faint sound of giggling echoed from the hallway—soft, sneaky, and suspiciously familiar.

Drake blinked. "Did anyone else hear that?"

Lucien sighed, lowering his book. "If that’s Boo again, this peace won’t last long."

Rocky, still in rock form, rolled slightly on the floor as if agreeing.

Just as everyone started eating again, the lunchroom door burst open with a dramatic bang.

A glowing blur shot through the air like a flying light bulb on caffeine.

"BABIES SQUAD!" Boo screamed, spinning in midair like a tornado of excitement. "You will not believe what Boo saw!"

Felix blinked slowly. "Oh no..."

"Here we go again," Lucien muttered under his breath.

Boo zoomed to the center of the table, glowing so bright that everyone had to squint. "Breaking news from Boo’s secret eyes of justice!" he announced, his little chest puffed out proudly. "Miss Alina and the Principal," he paused dramatically, letting the suspense build, "hugged!"

The entire table gasped.

Drake’s jaw dropped, and half a spoonful of food fell onto his lap. "They what? Like a real hug?"

"No way!" Luna’s tail fur bristled, shooting straight up. "Teacher wouldn’t do that! She can only hug us!"

"Maybe it was an attack hug?" Felix whispered seriously. "A hug trap!"

Kelpie covered his mouth with both hands, his big blue eyes round. "Does that mean Teacher and Principal are really getting married?"

"What, married?" Drake screamed, standing on his chair. "Then who’s going to teach us?"

Boo cackled dramatically, spinning in the air. "Hehehe! Boo saw it with his own eyes! She hugged him like this." He threw his tiny arms around his body and made loud smooching noises. "Mwah mwah mwah!"

Everyone froze.

Lucien placed a hand on his forehead. "Boo..."

"What?" Boo said innocently. "It’s just a gooooosip!"

Sable finally spoke in his tiny, shy voice. "Maybe... maybe Teacher was just being nice?"

Luna folded her arms stubbornly. "No, no, no. Teacher is ours. We must investigate this crime!"

Drake slammed his spoon like a sword. "Yeah! Operation Save Teacher!"

Kelpie’s voice trembled. "What if Principal kidnaps her for paperwork forever?"

Boo gasped. "That’s even worse than marriage!"

Lucien sat quietly, rubbing his temples speechlessly. "They’re going to start a full investigation over a hug, aren’t they?"

Felix sighed, picking up a napkin. "You know they are."

"I’m going to tell Dad," Lucien said suddenly, setting his fork down with a calm but serious face.

Felix’s ears perked up immediately. "Yes, yes! Tell your dad!" he said, bouncing in his seat. "He should know the truth!"

Before Lucien could even stand, a loud whoosh echoed from the ceiling. Boo appeared upside down, spinning furiously like a tiny glowing blender.

"I heard that!" he shouted, glaring at Felix, his glow pulsing like a disco light.

Felix didn’t even flinch. He just leaned back, crossing his arms. "Then you also heard how suspicious you sounded, Mister Gossip."

Boo gasped dramatically, spinning faster. "Boo is not suspicious! Boo is brilliant! Boo brings truth to the people!"

Drake burst out laughing. "You mean you bring trouble to the classroom!"

"Trouble?" Boo pointed at himself, wide-eyed. "Me? I’m a good citizen of the little fang kindergarten!"

Luna groaned, putting her head on the table. "You’re more like a flying rumor with no legs."

"I have legs!" Boo shouted, offended, and he shifted his ghostly tail to legs.
