"What do you mean I had to GO to college for studying!!! I'm doing fine..."
Tankhun said loud and clear for everyone to hear.
"No more shouting at the dinner table." Mr. Korn said calmly.
But Tankhun doesn't know how to talk like a normal human.
"I am not going out of this house and that's final." He pointed at everyone with his butter knife.
"Dear son it's for your own good. You have to finish your study...."
"And why's that?" He raised an eyebrow at his father.
"What do you mean by Why.. it's for your bright future of course."
"Huh! My future is already bright.."
Tankhun said proudly.
"Yeah it's so bright that I can't even see it.." Kim said while grinning.
Kinn and Porsche hide their smiles with great effort. Tankhun glare at everyone. Then he tried to threaten his little brother.
"Hey Kim! If you disrespect me one more time I'm gonna cut your useless tongue with this knife."
"Khun put your butter knife down. And Kim don't tease your brother. And you Kinn?"
"Yes father?" Kinn looked at his father.
"Tell Khun's guard to take him tomorrow for shopping." After hearing the word 'shopping', Tankhun looked at his father with sparkling eyes. "Tell them to buy everything that's necessary for a college student."
Sparkling eyes are gone, only a death glare remains.
Mr. Korn ignored Khun's sulking face and left the table calmly. Leaving every one to tease his beloved son.
"Why the hell are you all laughing about!? I am not GOING anywhere.!" Tankhun yelled out while his brothers - Kim and Kinn were grinning from ear to ear.
"What was dad thinking to send our crazy brother for studying.. gawd I can't even imagine HIM in a freaking college uniform." Kim continued his teasing.
Tankhun threw his used tissue paper at his face. From the corner of his eyes he saw few guards, they were also hiding their smile. Bloody hell!
"Aishhh I don't wanna go.. why should I? Huh? Both of you go to college. Why does dad want me to go too? Well you both go and study.. and it's not that you both achieve anything big or something.."
After receiving double-glare from his brothers Khun changed his tone.
"Ahmm well, I am not interested in business like you Kinn. And I don't want to learn music like you Kim. I'm happy with my play room so why in the happy world would I go to college? Huh?"
Khun asked everyone present at the dinner table. But no one answered. They were busy enjoying his current situation. The way he was going crazier..
"Hey Kinn you are the leader of our clan. You go and talk some sense to our old man."
"Me!?" Kinn pointed at himself with his fork. Khun rolled his eyes.
"No I'm talking to this chicken leg in your palate. You idiot." Kinn first looked at his own palate then to his brother.
"What do you truly desire?" Kinn asked with his serious-clan-leader face.
"Well I desire many things.... but for now I don't want to go to college.. wearing stupid uniforms, carrying a bag pack, sitting in ugly class, listening to boring lectures, and eating cheap food from the canteen..." Khun shudders at his own imagination.
"Don't be so dramatic. It's not that bad you know." Kinn said while looking at Porsche for help.
"Hey don't look at me. I can't deny Khun's words. He draws a vivid picture of a student's tough life." Porsche said honestly.
"Thank you Porsche for supporting me." Tankhun almost hugged Porsche.
"I'm not supporting you Khun. I think you should give it a try. You are not the first human to study at college. You're our eldest brother, be brave for once. Show that you're not as crazy as everyone said you are."
Porsche was speaking, Khun's face turned red, Kim returned the same used tissue that Khun threw at him a few minutes ago. Now that tissue was thrown at Porsche, which Kinn caught easily.
"Look Khun we are not your enemy. Okay? We also want what's best for you. Trust me and Just give it a go. I'll help you. It's my final year at college. So it's better if you go now." Kinn tried to reason with his eldest brother.
"Yeah Kinn's right. And look at me I'm also in my 3rd year. Even though we're in different faculties, at least we're the same in the year. Don't worry after Kinn's graduation I'll help you." Kim also pushes Kinn's point.
Now all the eyes in the hall were fixed on Tankhun.
"Oiiiii.. fine I'll go. But I won't wear a uniform. Not in this life." Tankhun shouted and left with his usual dramatic style.

Tankhun's POV:
They have no idea what they're asking from me. I can't leave this house. I can't go out in a world where I don't fit in. I'll do everything to dodge this good-for-nothing opportunity.
I will never submit to anyone. I'm the eldest son of the Mafia Clan. I'm the King of my own world! You think you can change my mind.?
Nahhh. Not in this life.
It's 10 in the morning. The whole night I tried to make an escape plan. At dawn I realized something or 'someone' more precisely..
Do you want to know my next move!?
Let me give you a hint
In this cruel world, no one can save you if you don't try to save yourself.
Look I don't want to be rude...
But I'm the freaking eldest son of the Major family.
Nobody can force me to do something against my will. Not even my mafia dad... period.
