Teacher... please...

"Okay? Let's go. Homework is up to here."
"Tsk.. Teacher!!"
"why."
".. ㅆ,"

"..Nothing to say? Let's go."
".."
I couldn't hold on to my teacher. I could only drift away from her. Like fallen leaves rustling away, our warm memories crumbled into dust and blew away in the wind. All I could do was watch her from behind.

"Uselessly... making people excited..."
I put on my padding and went outside. The teacher was out wearing only a coat, blowing on his hands.
"..Teacher, my eyes are swollen..?"
"Yeah, like a frog."
"... Mr. Lee..."
"Teacher... can I hug you?"
"..I'll allow you just this once"
I threw myself into the teacher's arms and burst into tears again.
".. Ugh.., teacher.. hmph... there is a reason..?"

The teacher thought for a moment and then said.

"Yeo Joo-yeon, did you cry this much?"
"..Teacher..?"
"There are circumstances, so if you wait, it will get warm again."
"Wait until I can love you again."
The teacher hugged me tightly, kissed my forehead, and then naturally kissed me.

"..I love you so much I can't even say it"
