The next day started out much the same a the prior one. Lyall arrived at the school, albeit still too early for his tastes, and headed into the classroom to prepare for the days lesson. Eventually the students arrived as well and he greeted them normally, except for Alice whom he gave a gentle smile as she entered the classroom. Lyall wasn't playing favorites, although he believed Alice was more...interesting than the other students, he was simply attempting to find a way to increase her confidence in herself by being polite.
Once the last student arrived and the bell rung Lyall began the class, just as he had done yesterday. "Good morning class, I hope your first day of school wasn't too taxing on you. Now settle down and lets get started. I would like all of you to pass up the homework from last night." Lyall said as he watched the students begin to dig around to find it then start to pass it up.
