Student [near the end of class]: "Mister, is tomorrow's lesson hard?"
Me [shrugging]: "It uses a lot of stuff that we learned about today, so if you struggled with today's lesson then I guess the answer would be yes."
Student is visibly concerned despite wearing a mask.
Me: "Why? Are you not going to be in class tomorrow?"
Student [nodding]: "Yeah, my parents want me to stay home tomorrow."
Me [silently judging]: "I hope it's not because you're sick."
Student: "Oh no! No, it's not for that reason. I'm getting my second shot tomorrow." (8/25/21)
