Strict Teacher
Written on 5th March 2026

He was teaching social, shouting and beating others who didn't listen and were playing ruthlessly.


Most of us didn't like him or his teaching.

We all wondered "How can a man so tough be kind or show love?"


Suddenly his phone rang.

He took it out of his pocket and saw the contact name,

"My Love".


His face gave a hint of pink as his fingers silenced the call and slipped the phone into his pocket.

He continued teaching, suddenly with calm and kindness we never saw in every word of his,

now even excusing those who played.


Now we wondered,

what could have brought such a drastic difference in him,

for we didn't know what his phone displayed...
