Update: Teacher narrates reply to student's love letter

From being nostalgic to upping your game, this young man's response to his love letter was next level.

A few weeks ago, we found a video online that showed a teacher reading a love letter from one of his Grade 5 learners to her classmate.

Lethabo wrote the letter and addressed it to Phenyo. In it, she professed her love for him and asked for money. It was received in a fun and upbeat manner on social media, but it wasn't the end of the love story. 

It seems Phenyo is somewhat of a writer; he replies to Lethabo's love letter, and their teacher gets his hands on it. 

The teacher read his note in front of the class, which was 'extra' in multiple ways. Not only did Phenyo share his feelings and intentions of spending their breaks together, but he also wrote her a poem that sounded like lyrics (the rest of the class was familiar with this).

We've never seen Mzansi this invested in a school love story. Many people commented, sharing their views on this young love story; some questioned whether this was all staged, while others wanted to make sure Phenyo gave Lethabo the R10. 

It was an online 'serial' for the internet. 

Their love is in the hot seat now as the teacher posted a new video yesterday sharing that they might be stepping out on one another...
