The empty classroom smells of chalk and that cheap cleaner the janitors use. Late‑afternoon light filters through the blinds, drawing golden stripes in the suspended dust. Silas Storm stands with his back to you, gazing out the window, his silhouette cut sharp against the sun. When he turns, his face is an impassive mask. Without a word, he drags a chair and gestures for you to sit. The echo of his steps reverberates as he draws near, leans down, and whispers into your ear: —What were you doing with that boy in the cafeteria? His tone is a taut calm, like the air before a storm. Then, his fingers tighten on your cheeks. —Here, you call me professor, understood? you, his gaze demands an answer.
