Hey guys this maybe a long chapter but I wanted this to make sense and be realistic as possible, also there's a bit of swearing for realistic purposes hahaha

Hope you enjoy the chapter!


The lecture hall was now quiet.

It was only a few minutes ago that the hall was filled with students, all intrigued not with what the rest of the year in chemistry has to offer but rather, the situation that these students were graced with the presence of their new professor, Irene.

Irene sighs as she recalls her students, mainly the male students as they seem to be distracted by her beauty and were not focused on her teachings. It made her feel somewhat overwhelmed that she even doubted her ability to teach, but with a slight glimpse of positivity in her mind, she was hoping as the year progresses that the very first batch of students she is teaching are all going to graduate with flying colours, which is reflective of her skill and knowledge.

"Don't worry Irene...its just first day jitters. You're over thinking..." Irene whispers to herself.

She eventually sets out of the lecture with her books, laptop and some paperwork in tow towards her new office where she will be residing. She comes face-to-face with a building which has the large inscription of 'Department of Biological and Physical Sciences; above the oak doors, causing her to feel a sense of gratitude and excitement. It was all she had wished for. Ever since she was a child, Irene always wanted to teach and help others, then she developed her love for chemistry. She was fascinated by how molecules worked and reacted with each other, especially how relevant it was in nature. She loves nature. Being out in the wilderness and appreciating it's beauty was a great past time of hers.

She proceeds through the oak doors, walking through its corridor then eventually settling inside an office which had her name out in the front. She starts unpacking the boxes she took from her car earlier, taking out a picture frame of her family, some postcards she had collected during her travels around Europe and a bonsai tree for a sign of good luck. She plops down on her seat and pulls out her phone to call Wendy.

"Yooo Joohyun!...I mean its Professor Irene now hahaha! What's up?" Wendy asks as soon as she picks up.

"Hahaha Seungwan-ah! Nothing, just wanted to talk."

"How was your first lecture class? Bad? Good?"

"It was good but I felt nervous though and I feel like my class is distracted..."

"If it's by your beauty, don't be. They should be lucky they have been graced by a goddess!"

"Stop that I'm not a goddess..."

"Its true though, when are you going to accept the fact and I mean...the FACT that is the case? Even more so when your students find out that you're a model as well..."

"Oh crap I forgot about that! Is there a way they cannot know? I mean, it would be awkward if I see some of my students ogling at my modelling photos."

"Girl its inevitable! They're going to find out one way or another anyway so just embrace it! If I had a face like yours, I'd flaunt it everywhere I go!"

"Well thank god you don't have my face then."

"You savage..."

"Hahaha jokes! But I'm hoping my students take more care in their studies rather than how I look..."

"Well who said you can only be pretty without a brain? No one. Just be confident and trust yourself okay? You've worked hard for this remember? We need to celebrate this milestone of yours I'll shout you dinner tonight! But also, we need to discuss matters about your modelling schedule for the month ahead."
