Whenteon and Kelly got home, she quickly took a shower and went straight into the study room to review what she had beamed.
Her part–time job tookup her evening sell–study time, so she had to use this time to consolidate what the learned that day
Time passed unnoticed until there was a knock on the door.
“Emcoming in,” Leon called o
As soon as the door opened, Tren saw the young woman sitting at the desk, books spread out in front of her, pen in hand, seemingly absorbed in what she wat writing.
The soft light bathed her, and her focused expression made it cleart

Leon placed the warm milk on her desk and spoke gently “Don’t forget to drink the milk.”
Lost in theight, Kelly absentmindedly nodded, “plore.”
Leon glanced down at her open book. It showed a diagram of the heart, witli text explaining the polmonary and systemde circulations.
Noticing het furrowed brow, he asked, “Do you need help?”
Kelbe looked up at him, her eyes lighting mg.
How could she forget? She had such an excellent professor right by her side, yet she was still
“Yes,” she answered clearly.

In no time, a chair appeared beside her desk, Leon sat next to her, his hand resting on a blank sheet of paper, the started sketching a heart with swift, precise movements, bringing the anatory to life on the page.
Leon’s voice, calm and steady, filled the quiet night a she explained
This is the coronary cross–section of the heart. On the left and right, we have the left and right atria, as well as the left and right ventricles. The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium and ventricle, while the bicuspid valve separates the left atrium and ventricle. Let’s start with the pulmonary circulation.”
Leonciled the right ventricle on the diagram and extended a line upwards. “From here, ablood vessel called the pulmonary artery emerges, and blood flows into the lungs
His voice was slow and soothing, and with each word, a clear and precise diagram of the pulmonary and systemic circulations began to form on the page. He used red and blue pens to mark key details
Leon’s hand, steady and precise, drew without even needing to glance at the textbook. His knowledge of human anatomy seemed deeply ingrained, as if it had been etched into his bones
The organs the sketched were lifelike, and Kelly had already seen his talent in class. Many of the students joked that Leon had been “ruined” In anatomy.

“Next, we have systemic circulation Blood flows from the left atrium into the lett ventricle, where it’s pumped into the aorta…” Absorbed in his explanation, Kelly found her mind wandering. Her gaze driftred over his face, from his eyebrows to his nose, and finally to his lips. His mouth moved with every word, perfectly shaped and mesmerizing Then her eyes traced down to his Adam’s apple, which subtly moved as he spoke. Having studied anatomy for some time, Kelly knew that although people had similar structures, there were always differences. And Leon’s bone structure seemed like a perfect gift from nature.
just as she became entranced by him, his voice
e startled her like a thunderclap. “Are you listening?”
Kelly’s eyes widened as she met his dark, steady gaze. Damn it. She had been caught daydreaming again.
Her face turned bright red in an instant. “1–I’m sorry.
Leon leaned back in lus chair, his deep eyes never leaving her. “This is the second time you’ve spaced out in my class
Kelly wanted to crawl into a hole and hide. She felt utterly embarrassed. “Professor Butler, I’m really sorry.”
Histone became a little stricter. “Tell me, what made you lose focus?”
Her Deck was visibly t

Desperately, she looked at him with pleading eyes. “Do I have to say it?”
