My mother looked at me with a displeased expression as I counted the days until my private lessons began after the teacher left.

"Whenever you say you don't want to take private lessons, why are you always so happy?"

When I didn't say anything in response because it was a bit painful, my mother crossed her arms with a knowing look in her eyes.

"You listen carefully in class because that teacher is handsome."

I got caught. My mother is a ghost. What good would it do to hide it now that it's come to this?

"How did you know?"

"Mom knows just by looking at your eyes. You look like a celebrity. Just the kind of person you'd like."

Oh. I saw right through it.

"Even mom thinks I'm handsome, right?"

"Hey, is that important right now?! You should be studying and thinking about raising your grades!"

Mom slapped me on the back. She's going to start nagging me again. In times like this, it's much better to pretend to be humble rather than rebel. I gave up on lashing out and just pouted.

"Ah. Okay......"

I grumbled and stared blankly at my brother's room door. The room was empty. My brother said he was studying in the study room today and went out right after dinner. People are really diligent. I don't have even a speck of diligence.

'Ding dong'

I never knew that ringing would make me so happy. I walked over to the front door with excited steps and opened it.

"Hello, teacher!"

"Hello, Songdo."

Today I was wearing a thin checked shirt. It's not like I'm wearing clothes that well, but my face is all dressed up, so whatever.

"For the time being, study with this workbook."

The teacher placed a large sheet of worksheets in front of me.

"What is this?"

"It's just a collection of first-year high school math problems. I graded the problems you solved for homework, and you only got eight out of thirty right? If you go straight into second-year curriculum like this, you won't be able to keep up. First, build up the basics of first-year curriculum and then move on to second-year progress."

He spoke in a monotonous tone. By the way, I only got eight questions right? That can't be. I did my best.

"Is that really all you could guess?"

"uh."

"Do I have to start freshman year from today?"

"That's what I said."

I wrapped my head in a heavy heart. I didn't know my level was like this. It must be the same with English, but I could already see that I was going to have a hard time.

"Why? Are you worried?"

"Of course! I feel like it's already too late."

"It's okay. It's never too late to study. Just work hard now."

I feel comforted somehow. I didn't know you could say such things.

"I'm a little touched. Me."

"Class is starting."

Tch, the excitement is gone. I can't talk any further. I wasted my time solving problems and listening to explanations of the solution process. After class ended, I stretched. My body felt sore.

"By Saturday, solve this many pages from here. Class is over. Thanks for your hard work."

He put his reference books and pencil case in his bag and stood up, slung them over his shoulder. For some reason, he hesitated instead of leaving my room right away. It seemed like he had something to say.

"Teacher, I'm not leaving today."

"This might sound weird saying this, but can I ask you a favor?"

Why are you taking the time to say something so grand? I'll do anything you ask me, teacher!

"Do you often go to the convenience store in your apartment?"

"Sometimes... I go every night these days. Why?"

"Don't go at nine o'clock today."

"yes?"

"There is something like that. Let's go."

I stood there dumbfounded, unable to move, as if my feet were rooted to the ground because of the unexpected words. Why did he tell me not to go today? Is there a special reason? I realized that it was a blessing to hear those words a day later.
