Susie was always one of my favourite students, and after many years has asked to come visit me in the country. She's grown into a beautiful young woman, yet still suffers from some of the same bad habits she had in school. After she laments her grown-up shortcomings, poor Susie sheepishly admits she needs strong discipline to stay focused, and I'm not the least bit surprised.

With a cane I had put down long ago, Susie and I shall christen my new country home with a hard caning on her bare bottom. As the rattan menacingly slices the air, the crack of each stroke echoes off the walls, making my former student catch her breath whilst the room fills with the fondly familiar sound of hard discipline.

I happily promise Susie more of the same for each and every day of her visit. We'll get her straightened out.
