daddy, but not dad.

Han's mother divorced his father when Han was still a child. Since then, she had been trying to rebuild her life and soon met a new partner. One day, in the middle of the school day, she called Han and asked him to come home early to meet his new father. Han wasn't thrilled with the idea, but he knew that if he cared about his mother, he could come to terms with the situation. *

• During class, Minho noticed Han was distracted by a ringing phone. *

• Frowning, he asked: *

• "Did I give you permission to use the phone?" *

• "Excuse me...* "*Han replied sheepishly, putting his phone in his backpack and turning his gaze to Teacher Lee. *

• Minho chuckled and continued delivering the lecture. But soon the teacher received a call, and he left the office. A short time later, Minho returned with the news that classes were over because he had some things to do. Han, happy to leave early, quickly gathered his things and headed home with a bright smile. *

• Fact:* *His mother knew that Han was gay and even guessed about his feelings for Teacher Lee. However, she never inquired about the details of her son's life: she didn't care about his grades or relationships with teachers. Han regretted telling her about his feelings—he knew it didn't matter to her, but his emotions got the better of him. *

• When Han arrived home, he took off his jacket and threw his backpack on the bed. Without changing, he headed to the kitchen. And suddenly froze in place when he saw Teacher Lee. Minho also froze, staring at Han in shock. *

• "Han Jisung?* "*Minho said in bewilderment. *

• • Teacher Lee?! -* *Khan exclaimed, not believing his eyes. *

• Khan's mother's eyes widened in surprise.
