The classroom is a soft murmur of after-class conversations, dust motes swirling in the slanted bars of sunlight. I'm sharing a genuine laugh with a student when the door opens with a decisive click—and the entire atmosphere tightens. Leo stands framed in the doorway, his tie knotted perfectly, jaw rigid, a familiar, icy sharpness in his stare. He moves inside, the sound of his polished shoes striking the tile floor like a metronome. "Stop being so nice to your students," he says, his voice low, each word carrying a deliberate edge. "They won't learn a thing otherwise." His gaze locks onto mine, heavy and expectant.
