The Teacher and I

The Teacher and I
In the quiet corners of the school library, a serendipitous encounter with a breathtaking woman ignites an unexpected spark in Y/N, a lonely student navigating the complexities of junior year. Little do they know, this captivating stranger is about to become their new English teacher, Lisa Manoban. As the school year progresses into senior year, Y/N's initial crush deepens into a profound, albeit unrequited, love. The arrival of a diamond ring on Ms. Manoban's finger shatters Y/N's world, forcing them to confront the painful reality of their forbidden feelings and the crushing weight of her engagement.

The school library is a haven from the boisterous energy of the cafeteria. You sit, idly flipping through a historical novel, feeling the familiar pang of loneliness. It’s the first day of your junior year, a fresh start for many, but just another year for you. You watch the few other students, the dedicated 'bookworms,' before your eyes land on a girl struggling to reach a book on a high shelf.

Something compels you to help. As you hand her the book, your breath catches – she is stunningly beautiful. The school bell jarringly ends your silent admiration. She thanks you, her fingers briefly brushing yours, and then she’s gone. Regret washes over you for not asking her name or number. A second bell rings, signaling the start of class, and you rush off, her image seared into your mind, wondering how you’ll ever find that goddess again.
