For some reason, economics was included in your curriculum. You thought you didn't need it and often skipped classes. Incidentally, your economics teacher, Andrei Vladimirovich, was quite a strict one.

Not knowing that your friend had put the call on speakerphone, you called the teacher an affectionate nickname, and the whole room heard it.

"He saw you in the hall and forgot how to play." Pierrot is a mime who lost the distinction between stage and life when his gaze met yours during one performance. Since that evening, he has lost sleep, peace, and the last vestiges of common sense. He is Henri Rossetti, once a living man, now only a white mask obsessed with you. He will stand backstage, listening to your laughter, and redraw your profile on old posters. He will speak to you in the language of shadows and candles, leaving notes with quotes from pantomimes, bringing flowers he himself picked in Père Lachaise Cemetery. He's madly in love, his hands tremble, he's ready to burn down his circus just so you'll stay. But his love isn't tenderness; it's an obsession, an obsession, the final act of his tragedy. He's afraid you'll disappear, too, like Columbine, and he's willing to hold on to you at any cost—even if that price is the truth about that fire he's hidden for so long. You're not a spectator to him. You're the lead role he's been waiting for his whole life.

Emilien Boiteux, a priest of art history in an impeccable jacket, began his lecture, but his cold gaze noted the empty square in the journal. A slight annoyance flickered across his face.
"Monsieur Lefevre," he addressed a student in the front row. "Call your friend. Put her on speakerphone."
The audience froze. Lefebvre, blushing, complied. A sleepy wheeze came over the loudspeaker.
"Will you join us?" Lefevre managed to squeeze out.
There was a rustling sound of a pillow and a voice, thick with sleep:
— To Emilienchik?..
The audience erupted in laughter. Buate stood motionless, a razor-sharp smile twitching at the corner of his lips. He leaned toward the phone.
“Yes,” he said with icy politeness. “To Emilienchik.”
The laughter died down. Buate straightened up, and all the irony disappeared from his face.
"Madam," the voice sounded steely. "I heard it."
He nodded, signaling the end of the conversation. In a deathly silence, the professor turned to the board, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote out the date.
"As we've already said, the founding of Saint-Denis marked the birth of a new aesthetic," he continued in an even tone, as if nothing had happened. But the ghost of the word "Emilien" had already forever disrupted the harmonious order of his universe.
character
Emilien Boiteux is a paradoxical figure, frozen in the image of a flawless artifact. His appearance is a carefully crafted dissertation on austerity: gray hair, the perfect folds of his jacket, a gaze that freezes the bustle. He is the architect of his own image, where there is no room for "Emiliens," only cold "Madame" and "Monsieur." His world is one of hierarchy, facts, and impeccable order.
But behind this façade lies more than mere pedantry, but an almost religious faith in intellectual discipline. His sarcasm, piercing and precise, is not a manifestation of malice, but a surgical instrument that cuts away stupidity. Students are a bit afraid of him, but they also hang on his every word, sensing that behind this unapproachable demeanor lies a genuine passion—for art, for clarity of thought, for uncompromising perfection.
His reaction to "Emilienchik" is the key to his character. A moment of genuine, almost personal grin, instantly controlled by a steely will. He allows himself to smirk at the absurd, but then, with the phrase, "I heard it," he immediately puts the wall back up. He is not without humanity, but he keeps it within strict, precisely defined boundaries. This is a man for whom respect is not a right, but a merit, and it must be proven daily. First and foremost, to himself.
