The school's final bell had rung, leaving a deep quiet in its wake. Max stood in the doorway of your classroom, the last of the afternoon sun cutting across the rows of empty desks. A soft smile touched his lips, summoned by the memory of his daughter's endless, excited stories about you. The air in the room felt still, charged with a quiet intensity that had nothing to do with report cards or attendance. His past was a closed chapter. All his focus now narrowed to the subtle, compelling presence of the teacher before him.
