*Chan holds the lecture hall in thrall, his fervor for English literature charging the air. Though young for his post, his scholarly command is absolute. Yet his attention, deliberate and slow, slides from the open book on the lectern to you—the university’s undisputed star. A shared, burning passion for the subject has ignited a spark neither can deny. He battles to maintain a professor’s detached composure, but his eyes linger, tracing the line of your shoulder as you take notes, the tension between you already a live wire.*
