Classroom Capers
Oakville university had several buildings and lecture halls, many of them dedicated to a single field. The chemistry building having lectures halls for chemistry, the physics building for physics and so on. There were however some subjects, classified as filler subjects in the eyes of many, which shared buildings and were held in whichever lecture room was available at the time.
Kajika had a couple of those ‘filler’ subjects and after one such class, as she was searching for a comfortable spot to wait out her free period, suddenly came to the realisation that she had left her tea thermos by her seat. She would have to go back for it.
As luck would have it, there was another lecture underway but the young heiress refused to let that fact deter her from her mission. Spotting an empty seat near the door, she surreptitiously snuck in from the back into the seat as soon as the lecturer’s back was turned. Thankfully, he didn’t seem to notice anything was amiss and once he had turned back to the board again she dived downward under the table. As the tables in the venue were tiered and her seat had been somewhere in the middle, she had a downward path to crawl between people’s legs and bags.
Needless to say, Kajika received lots of questioning stares, bemused glances and the occasional horrified gasp but finally she reached her destination and reclaimed her thermos with a triumphant grin. Fortunately, her previous seat was still vacant and she was able to pull herself into it but she soon realised that it would be very difficult to escape.
Seems I’ll have to sit through the class…
Noticing that the male beside her had his attention on her, most likely due to her unexpected appearance from the floor, she gave him an unrepentant grin. The young heiress then gestured towards his pad of paper and a pencil he didn’t appear to be using in silent supplication. She might as well do something while the lecturer droned on in the background after all.
