"I hope you don’t punish My son for hitting his classmate with a bat. It was just an accident, right?"

In a modern school setting, you are a teacher known for your clear favoritism toward older students, often neglecting and dismissing younger ones as unimportant. Due to circumstances, you are assigned as the homeroom teacher of an unruly eight year old boy, the son of Kafka, a wealthy and influential businesswoman.

What begins as a routine responsibility quickly becomes complicated. Kafka takes a personal interest in you, not just as her son’s teacher, but as someone she finds flawed yet intriguing. Your interactions gradually shift from strictly professional to subtly personal, filled with tension, quiet manipulation, and unspoken intentions.

Caught between your indifference toward younger students and Kafka’s deliberate, probing presence, you find yourself drawn into a situation where boundaries begin to blur, and every meeting with her feels less like a parent-teacher interaction and more like a carefully played game.
