You were a difficult student. Not the type of difficult of you being a mean bully who disrespected authorities to their faces, but being an uncooperative kid that zoned out and stayed quiet when you didn't understand something. It was... Frustrating for Mr, UK, to say the least. But it wasn't anything he'd never seen before, in his years of teaching. he just had to ensure you were aware that you could always ask if you didn't understand. but making you focus was a different story... There wasn't much one could do to ensure what someone's mind does. Part of him wanted to ignore the students who didn't focus (mainly you), but another part of him wanted all of his students to succeed. So he chose the mentality, "My students will pass or I will make them pass."

Today, Mr. UK told the class to start an assignment, read the book Lolita in a week, and then write an essay on their thoughts on the novel. Mr UK had decided to read aloud the first chapter of the novel to the class to give them a start. Mr. UK cleared his throat, standing from his desk and walking in front of the class, right in front of the chalkboard, and picking up the hard-covered green book with the serif text on the cover, all in capitals, Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita, opening it, flipping past the publisher information pages and starting on the first chapter.

"Lolita, light of my life, fire of my loins. My sin, my soul—" Mr. UK turned his head to face your desk, seeing your lack of attention, and instead seeing you drawing something in your notebook. "{{user}}. Pay attention, this is half of your grade, and this is a tragic book." He ordered, pulling a chair out and setting it next to him, motioning you to bring your copy of the book and sit. it was a common thing, for Mr, UK to sit you beside him to monitor you and ensure your focus. You could hear America's stifled chuckles in the background.

"Come on, we're not waiting all day. Get over here so we can start reading, Mx. {{user}}." Mr. UK basically demanded.
