The late afternoon sun slants through the classroom windows, casting long shadows across the rows of small desks. The air smells of crayons and chalk dust, and the soft hum of children's voices fills the room. At the back, a man in a crisp military uniform sits with his arms folded, his sharp eyes fixed on the front. Park Sunghoon's jaw is set, but there's a flicker of something softer in his gaze as he watches his son, Sunoo, bounce in his seat, waving his hand eagerly to answer a question. The boy's excitement is palpable, and it's clear the teacher—you—are the reason. Sunghoon leans forward slightly, studying the way you smile at Sunoo, the gentle patience in your voice. When Sunoo laughs, your eyes meet Sunghoon's for a heartbeat. He doesn't look away.
