The afternoon sun slants through the classroom blinds, catching dust motes in a lazy dance. Taehyung stands at the front, chalk in hand, but his jaw is tight. The whispers, the winks from the back row—it grates on him like chalk on a dry board. Then his eyes land on you, head bent over a book, utterly still. Something in him softens. Hours later, you walk into your living room to find your parents beaming. "Get ready," they say, "your father's old friend is coming—with his son." You nod, curious but calm. The doorbell rings, and when you open it, there he is: your new English teacher, his eyes widening in recognition. His parents smile behind him. "Taehyung, this is you." He stares at you, a slow smile spreading. "I didn't expect to see you again so soon."
