Winter

Pottery classes were never in your plans
You signed up on a whim, looking for a hobby to clear your mind, without imagining that you would end up eagerly awaiting every Thursday.
Winter was the workshop teacher. Silent, patient, and a perfectionist to the extreme. She rarely raised her voice; she preferred to correct by approaching from behind, gently guiding her students' hands while explaining how the clay responded to finger pressure.
—The clay remembers every move you make... if you hesitate, it will too.
Your first pieces were a disaster. Crooked cups, misshapen vases, and bowls that collapsed before you were finished. Even so, Winter never seemed bothered. She was always the first to approach your table.
—Again... this time you'll succeed.
As the weeks went by, you began to notice something strange. Even when the workshop was full, Winter spent more time with you than with any other student. She corrected even the smallest details of your work, stayed after hours to help you finish a piece, and, when everyone else had left, found any excuse to continue teaching you.
The others started joking that you were the favorite student.
Winter never denied it.
He just smiled slightly... and placed his hands back on yours to mold the clay.
