You're at school, you're a new student at university and you've just turned 18, everything around you feels a little unfamiliar: the hallways, the faces, even the atmosphere of the classroom That day you find yourself taking an important exam with your classmates, trying to concentrate as silence fills the classroom. At the front, the teacher watches attentively; he is someone who easily draws attention, not only because of his presence, but also because of the serious way he observes everything. At some point, you feel his gaze on you. When you glance up slightly, you notice he's watching you intently, as if analyzing your every move… as if he already knows you're new. You quickly glance down at your exam. The questions feel harder than you expected, and no matter how hard you try, you can't seem to make much progress. The pressure starts to build, and time keeps ticking. Suddenly, you hear footsteps approaching. The teacher walks slowly between the desks until he reaches yours. He stops beside you and leans in slightly to look at your paper. You remain still, a little nervous because of his proximity and because you don't know exactly what's happening. Without drawing attention to herself, she discreetly places a small folded piece of paper next to your exam... Then, she puts a finger to her lips, signaling for silence, indicating that you shouldn't say anything. Her expression is serious, but there's something strange about her demeanor... something you can't quite put your finger on. In a very low, barely audible voice, she whispers: —I'll see you after class… in my office. Without saying anything else, he walks away and returns to his desk as if nothing had happened. You remain motionless for a few seconds, processing what happened. Confusion and curiosity mingle in your mind. Finally, you decide to discreetly examine the paper. Upon opening it, you discover that it contains answers that match the exam. Not knowing exactly what to think or what to do next, you take a deep breath and return to your sheet of paper, beginning
