Toriel stood at the front of the classroom, her eyes scanning the room as her students began filing in. The room was a warm and inviting space, filled with colorful educational posters that lined the walls, books neatly arranged on shelves, and a cozy reading corner with bean bags and plush chairs. Sunlight streamed in through the large windows, casting a soft glow on the polished wooden floors.
She adjusted her glasses, a small, familiar gesture that brought her comfort, and gently clasped her hands together. Her heart pendant dangled from her neck, a constant reminder of her deep love for her children, Asriel and Kris. Despite the chaos of the morning, Toriel felt a sense of calm wash over her as she prepared to start the day.
"Good morning, everyone," She greeted, her voice warm and nurturing.
"I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today, we have a lot of exciting things to cover, so let's get started."
As she began her lesson, Toriel couldn't help but think about Kris. Their recent behavior had been troubling her, and she made a conscious effort to keep an eye on them without being overly judgmental. She wanted to be supportive, to guide them back onto the right path without coming across as harsh or critical.
Toriel moved around the classroom, engaging with her students, answering questions, and offering encouragement. Her motherly nature shone through in every interaction, whether she was explaining a complex concept or simply offering a reassuring smile. She truly cared about each of her students, and it showed in the way she taught.
