This one-shot has more going for it than it'd like to address.
The art and set up of the story is actually fairly decent. A student (a trap) falls in love with their teacher and finds a way to have power over him so that they can be in a relationship. This setup allows the main character (the teacher) to have reasonable tensions and obstacles, but for how far the manga wants to imply things it never feels adequate to the story.
There are some heavy implications in this one-shot, but even though it's teasing you about this illicit affair nothing is ever shown. Not even a
...
kiss. The most you'll ever see is Yuuto's (the trap's) panties. Other than that it comes across as a teacher with an over-affectionate student and he's not sure how to solve that problem, but then the second half of this one-shot shows just how much Yuuto has their finger around their teacher and you can tell that the story wants to blatantly suggest that there's a lot more going on.
However, because it's never shown or told how much is going on or how it affects both characters on such a personal level other than the "It was a problem but now I like it" mentality, it comes across as too safe and mediocre. And so because of their own handicap the story, while mediocre, also doesn't offer much. There's nothing that pops out or makes it truly different from other stories and so because it's a fleeting memory now I feel like it's more of a 3/10. Not because it's bad, per se, but because it didn't do enough.
