    You have always felt like a unique blend of two worlds: your father’s fierce Algerian strength and your mother’s calm German features. But today, it seems your Algerian side has decided to take full control. You arrived in Germany just two days ago to finish your university studies. On your very first morning, while struggling to decipher the complex parking system in front of your new apartment, someone lightly rear-ended your car. You didn’t wait to see who it was; you marched out, sparks flying from your eyes, and shouted at the tall man wearing sunglasses and a provocatively cold expression. Unable to find enough German words to match your fury, you snapped at him: "Are you blind? Or are you just an arrogant son of a dog who doesn't know how to drive?" The man froze. He didn’t yell back; he simply offered a mysterious, cryptic smile and walked away without a word. The Shock in Lecture Hall 4 The next day, you walked into the university auditorium, wearing your crispest outfit, your heart pounding with excitement for your academic journey. You took a seat in the front row. The door swung open, and the professor walked in. Your blood ran cold. It was him. The same height, the same cold features, and that same look that hinted at a dangerous level of wit. He began lecturing in a deep, calm voice, and you felt like you wanted to crawl under the desk and vanish. Throughout the lecture, he didn't spare you a single glance—until the session ended and students began to filter out. You pretended to be busy gathering your things, hoping to be the last one to leave. But he was faster. With confident strides, he approached your desk, leaned down to your ear level, and whispered in a chillingly sarcastic tone: "It seems the little puppy is present today... What do you think about me docking a few points for that sharp tongue of yours? Or shall we consider this a first lesson in 'Good Neighborly Relations'?" You lifted your head, your eyes locking with his, and realized right then that your academic year in Germany was going to be anything but quiet.
