The new teacher
Loading. . .Jake feels a knot in his stomach. The fear for Jungwon's safety grips him tightly. He knows he's in a dangerous game, and the stakes are higher than ever. The threat to Jungwon is real, and Jake realizes he must be careful with every move he makes.
The next morning, Jake wakes up with a heavy head and a congested chest. He realizes he left his window open all night, and the cold air has taken its toll on him. Despite feeling under the weather, he knows he can't afford to miss another day of university. He drags himself out of bed, gets dressed, and heads out.
The cold air outside matches the chill he feels inside. His thoughts are consumed with worry about Jungwon and the ominous stranger who seems to know too much. The conversation from the previous night keeps replaying in his mind, making it hard to focus on anything else.
As Jake arrives at the university, he realizes he's running late. His student ID card fails to recognize at the entrance, causing further delays. Frustrated, he finally gets through and rushes to his biology classroom. When he enters, the teacher looks up, clearly irritated.
"This isn't your class," the teacher says sternly.
Jake is puzzled. "But I'm sure it is."
The teacher sighs and checks the attendance list. "You're supposed to be in the next room. Hurry up, and don't make a habit of this."
Jake quickly gathers his things and rushes to the correct classroom. As he enters, he spots Sunghoon at the front, glasses perched on his nose, surrounded by a stack of books. Sunghoon looks up, and their eyes meet. Jake is taken aback by how different Sunghoon looks in this setting.
"Jake," Sunghoon says, his voice cool and formal. "You're late."
Jake, flustered and red-faced, stammers an apology. "I'm sorry, I got held up."
"It's Mr. Park to you," Sunghoon corrects, his tone firm.
Jake nods and quickly takes a seat. As he settles in, he overhears Sunghoon scolding him gently for being late, which only adds to his embarrassment. He can feel the eyes of his classmates on him, and he wishes he could disappear.
"What did I miss?" Jake whispers to the classmate next to him.The classmate leans in and whispers back, "We're starting a new unit on religions. Mr. Park is our new teacher."
Jake's heart sinks. Of all the people to be his teacher, it had to be Sunghoon. He steals a glance at Sunghoon, who is now addressing the class, discussing various world religions.
Throughout the class, Sunghoon occasionally glances in Jake's direction. Jake can feel the heat rising in his cheeks every time their eyes meet. At one point, Sunghoon asks a question about a particular religion, and a girl named Wonyoung eagerly answers with detailed information."Very good, Wonyoung," Sunghoon praises, smiling warmly at her. She giggles, clearly pleased with the attention.
