"Mr Min, can you briefly explain what Global warming is? You seemed to know the topic already."

The professor asked without even glancing up from his laptop as he changed the previously explained slide with a blank one.

Min Suho, a 20 years old boy, adjusted his glasses as he stood up nervously, looking at his friends' downcasted face for help. The whole class quieted down to hear the boy's reply.

"E-Excuse me S-Sir?"

"You heard me Mr Min. I want you to explain the topic to the whole class as you keep on talking continuously in the class, laughing unnecessarily and ignoring what I'm teaching here, then I should at least expect from you to have already mastered the topic, right?"

The temperature of the class suddenly seemed to drop to an uncertain level as the professor's unfazed voice sounded extremely chilled. The standing boy couldn't help but to cower in pure shame, mumbling in a low voice,

"I-I'm s-sorry Professor. It w-won't happen again."

"Sit down and make sure to pay attention to what I am teaching as long as you're here. All of you, understand?"

"Yes Sir." Whole class responded in unison.

Jin continued the session in peace afterwards without any disturbance from a single student. As he watched the time, he started packing his stuffs while instructing the class,

"Do submit your assignments to the class president before leaving the class and Miss Hana, kindly hand them carefully to either me or to Mrs Lee, before lunch break and make sure to note down whoever doesn't submit."

"Yes Sir."

Kim Hana, the class president, stood up and politely bowed his head in acknowledgement.

The professor collected his stuffs was ready to leave when he recalled something and halted in his track, saying without turning back,

"Mr Min, go to the library once your classes for today get over and prepare a report on 'Time Management'. Remember, not to take anyone's help and hand it over to me personally, by the end of this week. Am I clear?"

"Y-Yes Professor."

The said boy immediately replied while standing up even though Jin didn't turn back and left the class elegantly, leaving the students frustrated as everyone started finishing the due assignment.

Jin made his way towards his last class for the day when few hurried footsteps sounded behind him. He almost got the idea of who it could be and paid no attention but soon a pair of black leather boots stopped in front of him.

"Wait, Mr Min!" [Don't be confused, Jin is also a Min (Min Seokjin)]

The boy had his hands stretched wide to block Jin from moving forward as he panted heavily, sweating a bit. Jin looked at the boy almost in annoyance,

"Pete Thitipoom, you're supposed to prepare for your next class and not block my way here."

"I know the professor but I really have something important to ask."

"Even so, you're not allowed to skip classes or perform such mannerless actions. Go back to your class for now. Once you're done with your classes, meet me in my office, if you have anything to discuss."

Jin stepped aside to move ahead when Pete held his wrist, flinching a little in the process as the fear and pain downed on him internally.

"Sir, is everything well-"

Jin composed himself and said in a very calm voice which could freeze anyone from the coldness.

"Mr Thitipoom, do not cross your line. Let go of my wrist before I change my mind and punish you severely."
