Disclaimer: As I have not really named a specific name for their university, I have based its rules and regulations on my own university. This is a work of fiction, and although I want it to be as close to real life as possible, some things just can't be done :-) 

The class I got into was mostly composed of guys. That was something I liked since a flock of rabid fangirls wasn’t exactly what I wanted to see early in the morning of what is supposed to be a beautiful Saturday spent with Noona (as my teacher). Still, the few girls who did manage to get the same schedule instantly stuck to my side like annoying thorns, asking me when I was available, and even having the nerve to coo at me and tell me to do some aegyo. I took a deep breath, chanting in my head the mantra that the Hyungs taught me whenever girls were starting to piss me off. They knew I had a short temper, but these girls didn’t. I had learned to block any sounds coming from them; I imagined, instead, Suho-hyung’s disappointed face as he scolded me, and the frown on Kris-hyung face as he shook his head at my actions.

“I’m sorry,” I said, plastering the single, fakest smile I could do (and I was extremely good at it, too), “But I can’t date anyone because I want to focus on dance first. Also, I refuse to do any aegyo, I hope you understand.” I hoped they could hear how pissed I was, and judging from the way they backed off, I guess they did.

Some of the guys eyed me with looks of envy and malice. Great, another thing to add to my once “beautiful” Saturdays now marked as “fugly” with a capital “F.”

Of course, if Noona were here, she would just drive all of them away. Noona didn’t care much for our  haters or fangirls. She did what she thought was best; and besides, I knew she didn’t like them as much as we did; in fact, I think she detested them more than we did. She hated when the girls ran to us, encasing us in their deathly hugs. Noona would barely escape during those moments. She also hated how the guys would look down on us just because we were a bunch of “flower boys.” That usually ended with a brawl Noona always seemed to win. Hyungs often assured me that the fools were just jealous, and I knew that. However, whenever Noona said what the Hyungs often said, it made me feel a hundred times better.

Back to the matter at hand, Noona was not here. No, she was not. I thought Lady Luck was finally on my side after last semester’s horrible experience, but no. It’s worse, because…

So close, yet so far.

;A;

No! Oh Sehun is not a crybaby! I tell myself, but…

Noona 

:(

“Tch, it’s already 8:35, where the hell is that teacher?” I heard one of the guys complain. Here, in my university, there was an unspoken rule that if a professor doesn’t show up within the first 1/3 portion of his class’ time, the students were free to go. Same rule applied to PE, and it being a two-hour class, 1/3 meant 40 minutes. (Plus points for Genius!Math prodigy!Oh Sehun!)

Soon, the five minutes were over. And with the end of this class was my heart dropping into depression. Well, that . I honestly, seriously thought that this semester would be better, that even though I was enlisted into a class with an unknown instructor, it would miraculously be Noona whom I would be spending my sweet Saturday mornings with. But no. No, it was not. And no, it will never be.

(And no, I don’t care if I missed out on the part that I also see her and practically spend everyday with her since she and I were dormmates)

Sighing, I grabbed my rucksuck and started heading for the exit. Since I was closest, I was also the first one to it. As I was about to take a step outside, however, the sudden appearance of a face I was so familiar with, I was so smitten by, stopped me in my tracks.

And then there was Noona, head tilted as she peeked inside our room, clutching onto the doorway with her callous fingers and face so close to mine that my instant response was to jump back and gape at her.

“…Erm…Noona?” 

Author's Note: 

Well, that was fast :)) 

It's a drabble, so it's short and sweet and easy to write :-bd 

Anyway, Noona finally arrives! But...why? Also, another EXO member will be making an appearance in the next part! Can you guess who it is? 

Clue: This member is one of the tallest in all of EXO! Sometimes, he's an effective (although not deliberate) er to our favorite ship, LuMate, but most of the time, he's a saint! 

Who could this mystery EXO member be? 

Stay tuned for the next installment of The Taste of Green Mint Tea! 

P.S. Have you guys ever tasted Green-Mint tea? It tastes amazing! Well, I guess that's expected from something with mint in it. Its cooling effect is perfect for my country, especially during my summer classes that recently ended. Because there was no airconditioner and the climate was just so bloody hot, mint tea was the perfect remedy and my secret to surviving the day! :)) 

What type of tea is your favorite during the summer? 

Comment if you can! <3
