That's Enough

"WOII!"

"GET YOUR ASSES OUT OF HERE!"

Loud noises roared outside of the usually quiet and pristine public library. The head librarian and also owner of the establishment slid his spectacles up the bridge of his nose as he poked his head up from the counter to peer outside. Several people hurriedly left the grounds of the library followed by more cheering and rowdy noises. Minhyun looked at his fellow librarians who shrugged and headed to the door, peering outside this time. He noticed a gang of motorcyclists going around and gathering at the front of the library to his confusion.

"This looks like a good place to wreck," one of the gang spoke aloud and Minhyun gasped. He rushed back inside and went to his staff.

"Call the police. I think they are here to create trouble," Minhyun said softly and his staff nodded.

"Wooo," a loud cheer echoed in the library as the door was kicked open and the gang crowded at the front of the library. Several of the patrons yelped in fear and started dispersing or trying to hide in the shelves. It was a burglary but it might as well have been. One particular male stood out in the crowd as he stepped forward.

"Aahh... We don't need such a shitty library in our neighborhood."

"M-Minhyun, what do we do? I can't call the police."

Minhyun gulped as he had froze. He gently patted his staff's hand that was on his sleeve. "I-it's okay. I'll handle this."

Minhyun timidly approached the gang but he didn't want his library or its reputation to be destroyed so he had to stand up. He breathed in and stood in front of the gang.

"Please... Leave," He said as firmly as he could muster. The male quirked his brow and laughed with a side smirk.

"Who the hell do you think you are?" the male yelled and kicked the table, making it slide across the room and bump into the next table. Minhyun flinched and his eyes blinked multiple times in shock.

"Hey! That's our boss you're yelling at!"

"Aah. Minki, don't go out there!"

"Help me hold onto him."

The male laughed and had a mischievous look on his face as he approached Minhyun, stepping up to him. Minhyun was taller but the other had bigger muscles for sure. "Ah.. You're the boss here?"

"Y-yes. You should leave before I call the police," Minhyun squeaked, fidgeting slightly and the male suddenly reached up, grabbing Minhyun by his hair and pulling him down to his level. Minhyun cried out in pain as he held the man's hand. "S-stop."

"Hah? Do you guys hear that? Sounds like a puppy yelping to me," the man said sarcastically as he pulled Minhyun lower until he was towering over the tall male. The whole gang started crackling and nobody went to help Minhyun in fear of ending up the same. "I don't care if you are the boss here or not. If I want to wreck something, I'll wreck it."

"No, please," Minhyun pleaded the male. "Don't destroy the library."

"You don't get to tell me what to do." The male motioned his hand backwards and one of his members handed him an opened bottle of water. The male poured it over Minhyun who started to cough and tried to block it but the grip on his hair tightened before throwing him to the ground. Minhyun coughed as he collapsed, his spectacles falling off and bouncing off to the side but the male didn't stop as he emptied the whole bottle onto Minhyun who was now drenched. He crushed the bottle and threw it down before stepping on it. "Oops. Sorry. I messed up your library floor. But since the library is so precious to you, you should probably lick it all up before it does any damage, right?"
