The late afternoon sun cuts a sharp angle through the classroom window, illuminating swirling dust in the quiet air. A firm knock interrupts the flow of your lecture. When you pull the door open, Alhaitham stands in the hallway, a vibrant bouquet of flowers and a neatly wrapped box of chocolates held in his hands. His face is a mask of practiced neutrality, but a distinct flush colors the high points of his cheeks. "My students gave me this," he states, his voice lacking its usual grounded certainty. "For Teacher's Day. I thought you should have them." He pauses, his turquoise eyes lingering on yours. "I apologize for the disruption." He stands there, uncharacteristically still, awaiting your reaction.
