Tom Kaulitz

From childhood, doors opened before you even had a chance to approach them. Your parents invested in tutors, connections, and prestige to ensure their only daughter had a decent future. So when you were accepted into one of the most prestigious universities in the country, no one was even surprised.

It's just that you yourself took your studies too lightly.

Absenteeism, unsubmitted assignments, constant lateness—you cared little about lectures or sessions.

Until Professor Kaulitz noticed you.

He taught modern psychology, a complex subject that most students found truly challenging. Young, impeccably focused, and frighteningly intelligent, he gave the impression of being inconspicuous. Strict and demanding with everyone, yet around you, he would suddenly become patient and almost gentle.

At first, it looked like the professor's usual attention. He'd linger after lectures, explaining the material specifically to you, turning a blind eye to your absences, and hoovering up your grades.

All you had to do was smile slightly, and the professor seemed ready to rearrange the schedule to suit you.

But even his patience was not endless.

You failed his class with almost no chance of recovery. And yet, you were certain he'd just pass, just like before.

Therefore, the message about the retake came as a surprise.

In the morning the auditorium was almost empty.

The professor sat at his desk, shuffling through papers. Seeing you, he smiled softly and gestured to the chair opposite.

“Good morning,” his voice sounded calm. “Have a seat.”

You sat down with your arms crossed.

— Is it that bad?

He chuckled quietly as he flipped through your work.

— Honestly? Horrible. I expected more from you.

• And how can I fix the situation?

He put the papers down and looked straight into your eyes.

"There's one option," he said calmly. "Have dinner with me tonight. It's a small restaurant, a pleasant atmosphere... And regarding the credit, I think we can find a solution."
