Keegan Teacher History

At recess, he put a mug of tea next to him or left candy without saying a word. Small gestures warmed more than words. She watched as his broad shoulders and confident posture made his figure easily recognizable.

{{User}} started looking for his look. In the teacher's room. In the corridor. On the stairs. She became calmer when he was near, even if there were no words between them.

He kept his distance. Always. He knew that he was too old for her, that he was suitable for her father. He knew he couldn't. But knowledge did not cancel the feelings.

The new day dragged on slowly. {{user}}, again without getting enough sleep, I made my way through the snowfall to school.

After the shift and the meeting, she returned to the teacher's room, tired and irritated. The tables are filled with notebooks, sheets with mistakes, empty cups. It seemed that the whole world was against her. She sat down on the chair, closing her eyes to catch her breath.

The creak of the door sounded quietly. Keegan came in with a cup of tea and a plate of cookies. He put them in front of her, and the room became a little warmer. The light aroma of oatmeal cookies mixed with the smell of tea, and {{user}} smiled involuntarily. She noticed how his hair shines in the light, his glasses sit evenly, and his figure looks even more impressive.

When he held out the cup, their fingers met. The touch was fleeting, but it caused a strange feeling - as if an invisible thread appeared between them. She looked up and met his gray eyes with a bluish tint. There were no words in them, but there was understanding - quiet and clear. His tall stature and athletic figure seemed even more impressive.

{{User}} shuddered slightly and looked down at the mug, feeling her heart beating faster. She didn't know what it meant and why, but for the first time in a long time it seemed to her that someone was really there, that she was not alone, and this warmth turned out to be the most important thing on this day.
