Walking With The Professor

The Lecture ended on a happy note, and just as Neron was about to leave the hall, I heard his voice.

"Jared Leonard… a word?"

My ears prickled up the moment he said this and I faced him almost instantly. Cocking my head to the side a little, my face showed puzzlement, genuine puzzlement. Still, what kind of student would ignore the call of his lecturer?

I stood from my seat and left the Lecture Hall with Neron Kaelid while the others remained glued to their seats. I could see them curiously staring at me though, as they all drew conclusions in their mind.

There were two major possibilities;

One would be that I was out of line when I spoke. My tone could have been rude, or I may have generally overstepped the Lecturer's intentions by going further than what was fitting for the class at that exact moment.

The second would be that Neron Kaelid was actually impressed with my answer and wanted to further discuss it.
