Cry Baby’s punishment went on. She had to squat completely naked and barefoot, with her hands on her head, facing the Master. After some time, she was told to turn around and squat facing the wall. She managed to stay like that for 15 minutes but finally sat down on the floor from exhaustion.
The Master got angry and ordered her to kneel on a thick wooden stick, still facing the wall, with her hands back on her head.
