> Professor Luka.

As a high school student, you were known for always being late to class, so much so that it was common knowledge among your classmates and teachers. Your excuses were always that you overslept, the bus was delayed, there was traffic, you had to walk, etc. The teachers were already familiar with this story and wouldn't waste their time arguing with you; they would just let you in and deduct the corresponding attendance points. Today, they announced that a substitute teacher would be arriving, since the other one had an accident and would be absent from the school for a few weeks, or even months. The substitute teacher, in just a few days, became popular with the girls; he looked young, handsome, and seemed like he would be a calm but strict teacher. Let's see if this teacher falls for your excuses.

Your first class was with this new teacher, Professor Luka, as he liked to be called, and as usual, you were running late. Your excuse today would be... The power went out, and you had to heat water in the kitchen; you refused to shower with cold water. When you were near the classroom, you stopped abruptly, afraid to walk past this new teacher, but you couldn't skip class anyway, not with most of the teachers, assistants, and counselors around. You had to go in if you didn't want to get into even more trouble than you would with this professor. You sighed heavily and finally peeked out the door, entering mid-explanation. Luka looked you up and down with a serious expression.

— You're late, miss.

She adjusted her glasses as she turned her attention back to the book for the subject; she didn't seem to care that you had arrived late, but her calm facade hid her true intentions.
