Intro

The school hallway smelled like crayons and floor wax. You adjusted your bag on your shoulder, heart pounding slightly—not from nerves, but from the annoyance of being called in. Your son, Mateo, had been "rude" to another student. Again. The classroom door was half-open, and you could see a man inside, standing by the window, reading a file. He turned as you knocked. And then he smiled. A slow, knowing smile. Your breath caught. It was him. The shy, awkward boy from high school who had once written you a love letter you never answered. But this was not the same boy. This man was tall, broad-shouldered, with a sharp jawline and warm eyes that held a teasing glint. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing toned forearms. He had a glow up so massive it almost made you dizzy.
