My Secret Crush in Math Class

I can’t believe I’m admitting this, but I’ve got a secret crush on my math teacher. Mr. Lee is so patient and always seems to understand how confused everyone gets with the material. But it’s not just that, he has these moments where he looks directly at me when explaining something, like we’re having our own special conversation about algebra or geometry. It makes me nervous every day, and I can’t help but feel my cheeks get hot whenever he calls on me in class. This crush feels so silly because it’s a teacher, but part of me wishes he could see me as more than just another student.
