Jimin carried the three huge books in his hand. His fingers were starting to get numb from how heavy they were. Moreover, god decided that he will struggle because of his tiny hands, so here he was trying to keep his three books on biosynthesis stable in his hand. Hard task, if you would ask Jimin. His friends, Taehyung and Jungkook were of no help since they were busy carrying their own books in their hands. 

Jimin's eyes stayed stuck to the name plates because even though he had been studying in this university for almost three years, he still got lost at times. This year was his final year in the university with his course on Biochemistry course and after this he was going to be an undergraduate! And Jimin was excited just by the thought of it. 

Taehyung and Jungkook, unlike Jimin, had taken up Biochemistry as their minor side by side designing and dancing as their main course. Unusual combination was what Jimin though when he heard about it. Jungkook struggled a little bit in the beginning but he pulled up his grades by the second semester of his first year. And as for Taehyung, he's good as long as Jimin helped him. 

"Jimin." Taehyung called. 

The said person, turned around, his black locks poking into his eyes as he did. I need a haircut, Jimin thought

"Yeah?"

"Did you read the form for research competition?" Taehyung asked. 

Jimin's eyes widen upon hearing about it, "The forms are out? Already?"

"Yeah," Taehyung replied, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a crumbled piece of paper, "The conference is going to be by the end of this month... uh, I forgot the date."

"Holy shi-" Jimin yelped stumbling down after he walked into someone else. His heavy books falling down with a thud, followed by someone groaning in pain. Jimin froze the moment he heard the voice. Recognizing it faster than he could recognize Taehyung's or Jungkook's voice. 

He grumbled profanities in his mind as he turned around to face the person. My morning just started! I am not awake enough to deal with this! Jimin groaned as he looked into the person's eyes. 

Min Yoongi, final year undergraduate student in Computer Science. 

If Jimin knew how to get away with a murder, he would have committed it by now. He felt his blood boil inside him as he glared at the black haired boy in front of him. The other, matching his glare and scowl. Jimin rolled his eyes, before getting up and started to pick up his book. 

"I'm sorry." Jimin mumbled with bitterness in his voice. Just because he hated Yoongi didn't mean he was going to drop his manners. Even though, he so desperately want to drown the other in a sea of profanities. 

"Whatever." He heard the other mumble in the same manner as him.

Jimin intentionally pushed away Yoongi's book just as he was about to reach for it. He felt statisfied when he noticed Yoongi's eyes twitching from his actions. With victorious smile on his face, because Yoongi couldn't push away his book in return, he placed the book properly in his hands. 

"Incompetent." Jimin heard Yoongi as he walked past him. 

"Machine!" The biochem student responded loud enough for Yoongi to hear him. 

"When are you two going to stop fighting?" Taehyung asked. Both, him and Jungkook, having stayed quiet during the entire interaction. They learnt it the hard to not to intervene while Yoongi and Jimin were busy hating each other.
