Best Friend's Ridicule

Connor was riding an electric bike and was about to rush home. It was at that moment his phone suddenly started ringing.

"Connor, where are you? Don't you know that we have classes in the afternoon?" His roommate, Dominic, yelled in urgency from the other end of the line.

Dominic was Connor's roommate and one of his few friends in college.

"Oh crap, I almost forgot!" Connor exclaimed. He then quickly said, "I'll head over to class right now..."

"Hurry up!" Dominic replied in a low voice and immediately hung up.

Connor hurriedly rode his electric bike toward Porthampton University's campus area. His first class in the afternoon was finance. It was taught by a lecturer called Ray Walkster. What Ray hated the most was students being tardy. Anyone who had the audacity to be late for his classes more than twice would have to repeat the subject the next semester.
