I'm a teacher, and for several days in a row, I saw words of affection in an unsigned homework notebook. Startled, I stopped washing my hair and face, picked my teeth in public, and wore mismatched clothes. Unexpectedly, even so, a line of words was left on the homework notebook that day. 【Can a teacher really fall in love with their own student?】 I wrote down "No" without hesitation. The next day, a new message appeared. 【Then why did he hug me and kiss me? Isn't it because of love?】 I suddenly realized this wasn't a confession. It was a cry for help. 1 I hardly slept all night. As soon as I arrived at school, I found the class representative and told him that the error rate of yesterday's homework was a bit high. I asked him to notify the students to come to the office individually to pick up their homework so I could tutor them. I thought that since she could leave messages for me in the homework notebook, she wanted to ask me for help. I waited nervously for a whole day. After the last student took their homework notebook away, I was dumbfounded. Because that unsigned homework notebook was still there. Is it not from our class? That's also possible. This private high school has mostly older teachers. As the only young teacher hired this year, I've always had good relationships with students. So at first, when I saw those messages in the homework notebook: 【Teacher kept looking at me again today. Does he really like me?】 【What exactly did the teacher mean by what he said to me today? Am I overthinking it?】 【Teacher brought me snacks today. No one has ever been this good to me.】 My first reaction was that I had overstepped my bounds and caused "her" to have a bad misunderstanding. Therefore, I deliberately ignored those messages and just dressed sloppily. I was even fined 500 dollars by the vice principal for not paying attention to my appearance as a teacher. Thinking about this, I felt a bit regretful. Not regretting the 500 dollars, but regretting not realizing earlier that she was asking for help. I opened the homework notebook. The interval between the first message and the last one was half a month. A lot can happen in half a month. The more I thought about it, the more I regretted it. I scratched my head in annoyance. Looking up again, I froze. Another line of words appeared on the homework notebook. 【Teacher took me out for burgers today. He said it was a reward for my obedience.】 Immediately after, a second line appeared, the handwriting much messier than the previous one. 【But I really don't want to do those things anymore.】 2 The sound of the homework notebook falling to the ground woke me from my shock. I picked it up and rubbed my eyes. The words were still there. I slapped myself. It hurt. The words were still there. I took a deep breath, picked up the pen with trembling hands, and wrote a line on it. 【If you don't want to do it, then don't. No one has the right to force you to do things you don't like.】 After writing, I held my breath and stared closely at the homework notebook. Soon, I saw words appearing slowly one by one, forming a sentence. 【So the reply last time wasn't an illusion. Who are you? Are you the Wish Diary Fairy?】 I thought for a moment, then picked up the pen and slowly wrote. 【Hello student, I am a literature teacher currently working at Si Hai Private High School. My name is Julian Carter. You can call me Mr. Carter.】 Thinking of what she might have encountered, I gritted my teeth and wrote another sentence. 【You can also call me Brother Julian.】 Wait, thinking of her situation, maybe a female identity is better. 【Actually, you can call me Sister Julian.】 Not intending to deceive, just thinking that as a female, she might let down her guard more easily, and I could help her better. 【Sister? You are... a girl?】 【Yes.】 After writing this line, there was no response for a long time. I rubbed my brow, starting to review this seemingly bizarre situation. From the other party's words, it can be inferred that she is a student currently experiencing something very painful, so she wrote it in her Wish Diary. And the content of her diary appeared in this homework notebook, and she could also see the words I wrote in the homework notebook. Apart from this, I knew nothing about her name or which school she was in. To help her, I needed to know more information and make her trust me. Thinking of this, I opened the homework notebook again. Just as I picked up the pen, a line of words appeared on it. 【Liar! I checked. There is no female teacher named Julian Carter in our school!】 3 She is really in the same school as me! Just as I picked up the pen to reply, new words appeared again. 【Where are you, a wandering ghost from?】 【Forget it, it's fine even if you're a ghost. After all, what happened to me can't be told to anyone. It's too disgusting.】 【Why don't you reply to me? Are you angry?】 【Sorry, I was too agitated.】 From the gradually slowing words, I seemed to glimpse the other party's pain and caution. Clearly, she was in an extremely painful state, yet she apologized in fear of losing me, the only person she could talk to. My heart felt inexplicably sour. Victims shouldn't be so humble. 【Hello student, I'm not angry. I was just thinking about how to explain to you that I didn't lie. I indeed joined Si Hai Private High School as a teacher in September 2024.】 As one line fell, another appeared immediately. 【2024? But it's 2009 here!】 I looked at the homework notebook in disbelief. I dared not think that I was talking to someone from 15 years ago. Not giving me time to think deeply, another line appeared in the notebook. 【I believe you.】 I breathed a sigh of relief. If she believes me, then I can find a way to help her. Although across time and space, as a teacher, no matter whose student, which time's student, when they are in difficulty, I should help without hesitation. 【I can feel your confusion from the words you wrote. Is it convenient for you to tell me the specific problem you encountered? I'll think about how to help you.】 【There's nothing inconvenient with you.】 I was stunned, then realized. She probably meant that because of the time and space gap between us, she could speak about those things frankly. 【At first, I just thought he was the best teacher to me.】 4 【When school just started, I reported to school with my luggage by myself. The bag holding the luggage was very tattered, and classmates laughed at me. He didn't mind and even helped me carry the luggage to the dormitory.】 【The next day, he gave me a suitcase. I didn't want it. He told me not to overthink, saying his family was also very poor when he was young, and he encountered similar things. Seeing me reminded him of his past self.】 【He also actively added my contact information and cared about me every day.】 Seeing this, I couldn't help frowning. This matter might seem fine, but a male teacher actively adding a female student's contact information and expressing concern every day is in itself overstepping boundaries, or more accurately, plotting something illicit. But the female student involved, due to age and experience, cannot perceive it. 【At that time, I really thought he was very good, better to me than my parents. They only like my younger brother. We aren't even on the same household register.】 A stinging pain came from my fingertip. I accidentally pricked my hand. 【And then?】 I endured the palpitation and wrote down a line. As if peeking through the paper, seeing the bewildered teenage her stepping into the net carefully woven for her step by step. 【My math grades weren't good, but he still made me the math class representative, saying it could motivate me, and actively offered to tutor me for free.】 【But it made another girl with very good math grades unhappy. She said I was seducing the teacher.】 【She was once my only, best friend.】 A water stain appeared on the homework notebook. I didn't cry; it was her from 15 years ago crying. Seemingly non-existent seduction, clumsy provocation. But they were too young, barely distinguishing black from white, let alone gray. 【Then I said I didn't want to be the class representative anymore.】 【He disagreed. He said he liked me.】
