<human>: Can you provide a brief overview of the text?

So, as a significant portion of this sub's content, this didn't happen today. It happened last year while I was still in high school. I had some very important question or other to ask my English teacher about. His room is adjacent coincidentally to that of his wife's. That is, they're both English teachers. These rooms, it must be noted, are designed so that you can go through to the other room from the other and vice versa. My teacher's room was locked but he was visible inside. I think my matter was urgent at the time so I decided to go into his wife's room through to his room. What happens is I walk in and he's just sitting there at his desk crying his little soul out. And he had JUST hung up the phone as I walked in. It was only me. And him. Dead silent. Nobody else in the room. For five seconds I forget what I even was going to ask him (something about the final for his class or other). I asked him the question after hesitating a bit and he just stares blankly at me and sort of shrugs and speaks his answer in this holier-than-thou sort of pissed off kind of tone. 
I had been in his favorable side the whole year. Was kind of even one of the more decent students and even went on to get best student of the month.

Did not dare to exchange a word with him for the rest of the year.
<bot>: Walked in on my English teacher crying at school. Could not stand holding his gaze or even participate the rest of the year in his class
