It was forbidden for a professor and a student to be together, the truth sat like a stone in my stomach. If there was one genuinely honorable man I knew, it was Marshall. It was one of his qualities that endeared me to him, he wouldn't disregard the rules, they were in place for a reason. And I couldn't let him risk losing his job, the job that he loves so much because of me. Granted, he would quit after this semester was over but I knew he wanted to get back to teaching

at some point and I didn't want to be the reason he wouldn't get rehired as a professor.

I almost wished I was egotistical, I almost wished I could make myself keep him and persuade him

to keep me and we would be a secret, on one would ever know. I imagined telling him that but in

the end, I could never demand that of him. He had to choose it himself without me whispering in his ear. When Godwin squeezed my shoulder, I finally responded.

Would his expression grow cold, knowing the inappropriate connection between him and his student? Or maybe he wouldn't look at me at all. Maybe he couldn't bear it just like I couldn't bear to watch him. Minutes trickled down until the next one to speak was a girl right behind me. I looked anywhere but at him, I was too much of a coward but I swore I could feel his eyes on me.
