Alexandra straightened her gray jacket, which was fitted over her white silk blouse. Her palms were cold and clammy. Her heart a rapid drum inside her chest. She's showing signs of anxiety, she knew. The door before her loomed like a monster waiting for her to come into its lair. She bit her lip, the gloss she put on earlier now long gone.
She could do this. She could.
She took a deep, long breath. There's nothing she can't do. How hard is it to teach Biology to college students anyway? Another breath. She tidied her already tidy blonde hair, which she braided.
"Let's do this, Alex," she murmured to herself and forcefully opened the door and quickly went towards the teacher's platform. Without looking at the students, she placed her bag and books on the table. She wrote her name on the board.
With a big smile, she faced her students, no sign of the earlier turbulent feelings. She now looks like the epitome of confidence and competence. "Hello, class. I'm Alexandra Randall and I'll teach Biology today. Mrs. Thomas is not available today, unfortunately. So I'll be taking over."
She met the eyes of the students in front. And tried to scope the whole class. Show no fear.
"According to your syllabus, you're on Human Anatomy. So if you could open your books to page 132, we would begin."

Felix was lost in thought as he headed to his class. Biology wouldn't have been his first choice but he couldn't deny that the subject did peek his interest so far. His morning was typical. He woke up at 7 and did his daily exercises, some push-ups and sit-ups. Then he had a quick breakfast and prepared himself for the day ahead, kissing his parent's photo he left home.
The drive to school was dull and event less, especially since he didn't have enough time to grab coffee on his way. He parked his car in the usual spot, took his backpack from the backseat and made his way to the main building.
He entered the class and greeted a couple of his friends then took a seat in one of the front chairs and waited. But nothing could've prepared him for the shock. He was expecting to see the usual old and wrinkly face of Mrs. Thomas. With her 1970s fashion clothes and usual angry expressions. But the person who entered the room was a very beautiful and blonde woman, and wrote her name on the board, Alexandra Randall. A pretty name for a pretty woman, now that was a face he wouldn't mind seeing every morning.
As she faced them and smiled while she explained the situation he couldn't help but smile himself too. But the smile disappeared when she told them to open their books without saying anything more. "Wow, straight to business I guess?" he mumbled, a bit louder than intended. He then started reaching for his backpack.

Alexandra opened her guide and quickly looked at the topics. She had just been informed by her professor if she could help his colleague yesterday.Considering she was on the class top 10, it was not such a surprise, plus he knew that she needs the money more than the others. And no one say no to Dr. Bhavsar or to any doctor in general.
So the students are starting on the different Body Systems. This would have been better if they had a skeletal model, but she was not sure if they have one about. She was about to start the discussion regarding the MusculoSkeletal System, but she heard a loud voice coming from one student.
With sharp eyes, she looked at him, taking note to remember his face. Oh, she'll remember. Starting on the different part, she discussed their names and functions, occasionally asking someone to take a guess.
They were nearly at the end of the lecture when she pointed at the guy earlier. "You there, what's your name? Will you tell me what you know of the Thoracic Cavity?"

When she gave him that sharp swift look he knew that what he mumbled will come back to haunt him, though he also couldn't help but notice how beautiful her eyes were. They captivated his almost instantly. Well he did really try to focus as she explained but he still pretty much didn't understand anything. Maybe it was because she was building on where Mrs. Thomas left off and he didn't understand that too. But he made sure he takes notes of her. It was clear that she was older than him, maybe six or seven years. He wondered if she volunteered to do this or what, he doubted though someone like her would be too happy to teach collage students.
Then near the end she pointed at him and asked him a couple of questions. He made a motion to look behind him to see if she meant anyone else, it was more instinctive than anything. 'Well here it comes' He thought as he slowly stood. "Felix, my name is Felix. The Thoracic Cavity?" He then looked around for any support from the people in the class but none came. "Well it's a part of the body, I think. Something to do with the throat maybe?" He replied as he looked into her eyes with an uncertain smile. "I'm... sorry I didn't focus much today, my mind was a bit occupied."
