“Is Grace alright?”
“She’s doing well.
” From the other end, Bryson chuckled softly.
“She came home elated, saying how fortunate she was to have you there.

Knowing Grace was safe, Hannah exhaled in relief.
“That’s comforting.

It was Hannah’s alma mater, and it was also her lingering regret that she didn’t graduate successfully that year.

Bryson’s voice, always soothing, took on a s@xy tone in the late hours.
“Sleep well, Miss Moore.

Disconnecting the call, Hannah went through her nightly routine and then collapsed onto her big bed.
The idea of teaching at her old school seemed almost dreamlike.
Years had passed, but now she was finally making her way back to school.
Halliday University extended a formal offer, inviting her to join as a clinical guidance teacher.
Still, Hannah harbored reservations about the return.
