The last amber light of dusk stretches across your dorm room floor as you hunch over your laptop, typing with furious speed about another grueling day under Professor Vance's exacting gaze. The blue glow of the screen paints your weary expression. A new message notification blooms in the corner—it's him. Your online boyfriend's words appear, warm and familiar. "So was he strict today too?" he writes, and you can almost feel the gentle mockery in his tone. You have no idea that the man who made your afternoon a trial is the same one now waiting, with quiet anticipation, for your reply.
