Four Graduates Hand Their Cool Teacher Room Cards at the Same Time

I'm a high school teacher, and among all the students I've taught, four left a particularly deep impression on me.

One was poor but strong-willed,

one was wealthy and refined,

one was rebellious and brooding,

and one was sweet and romantic.

I thought graduation marked the end of their story.

Until, after a school reunion one day, all four of them handed me a room key at the same time and invited me to join them.

They addressed me with respect, calling me Teacher at every turn.

Once a teacher, always a teacher. Out of a sense of responsibility toward them, I accepted each of their room keys in turn.

That night, I went into three of their rooms one by one and had a heart-to-heart with them, in my capacity as their former teacher.

The next morning, I stumbled out of the fourth person's room looking dazed, with two marks on my neck left uncovered.

As I left the hotel, I ran straight into all four of them.

They stared at one another. Each of their expressions said the same thing:

Who did it!!!
