My Dreamy Old Husband

On the other side, the mathematics teacher caught hold of Carmen when she entered the class. “Carmen, not only are you late, but you didn’t even hand in your assignment. I want you to stand outside now!”

She looked at her mathematics teacher with a confused expression. I admit that I’m late, but when did I not submit my assignment? I remember that I already handed it in.

Usually, the carefree Carmen would render the mathematics teacher speechless by refuting him. Since he was furious and she did not want to argue with him, she decided to stand outside as instructed.

As she calmly stood outside, she was met with many gloating eyes from the class.

Then, the mathematics teacher continued to explain the questions, which the class did during the day. While feeling proud, he suddenly announced halfway through his lecture, “Today, I want to praise two students—Flynn and Kimberly. These last two questions were taken from a college entrance exam a few years ago. Back then, only a few people could answer the question. I only changed the numbers in the questions, so it is still difficult, but I’m surprised that they both were able to perfectly answer it! All their answers are absolutely correct! They are the only two students in the class who solved the question! Give them a round of applause!”

The whole class clapped their hands while Kimberly and Flynn gave a proud smile without maintaining any modesty.

After the loud applause, Carmen, who was listening to class outside the door, casually said, “Oh, they are so brilliant. Why don’t they come up and explain their answers to the class?”

The mathematics teacher quickly clapped his hands. “That’s right. Come up! Kimberly, you can explain the first question, and Flynn, you can explain the second one! Everyone, give them another round of applause!”

Again, a loud applause was heard from the class, but this time, Kimberly and Flynn could not smile as arrogantly as before. Quickly, their smiles faded while they became extremely embarrassed.

“Teacher, m-my throat is feeling a little uncomfortable…” she stuttered as she tried to swindle her way out of the situation. “I may not be able to speak…”

“I bet you copied the answers from somewhere!” Standing outside the door, Carmen spoke directly. “How could two slackers like them answer such a difficult question? I really can’t believe it.”
