I was asked to be an adjunct professor for one semester while they find a permanent replacement in the International Business program.
Being the one who never wants to disappoint or say no, I accepted.
I'm excited to give some of my time to others.
My business, that I own with my siblings, has taken off and given me more than I ever could have dreamed of.
Then the first day of class comes, and she walks in the room.
I notice her green eyes first and have to try my hardest not to stare during the entire lecture.
Despite how beautiful she is, and how drawn I feel to her, I know I can't cross that line. I'm the rule follower of the family.
But a couple of chance encounters lead to me getting to know her a bit more.
Now I feel my heart getting involved, and the strength I once thought I had, is fading.
With every touch, every look, every text, my control continues to slip.
