Being late to class is already nerve-wracking, but this student's attempt to quietly sneak in took an unexpected turn.
In a now-viral TikTok video by @dickycipto, the student confidently entered the classroom, thinking he could slip by unnoticed since "the teacher wasn't around." But just as he settled in, he turned his head – only to find the teacher sitting right beside him the entire time!
The moment of realisation is hilarious, with the student visibly startled as if he'd just experienced a jump scare. What made the clip even funnier was the teacher's calm, almost amused reaction – no yelling, no scolding, just letting the situation play out naturally.
Netizens are loving the wholesome exchange, calling it the perfect mix of comedy and classroom reality. Sometimes, the best lessons are taught without saying a single word.
