Just Another Day In School... #10

Another day in school, another lecture.

An empty row is available. I take a seat. My bag is placed on the neighbouring seat. Some other fellas fill in the row from the opposite end, right up to before my bag.

There are plenty of other seats available in the lecture hall.

Girl comes in halfway into the lecture, late. She walks to the row where I'm at, and saunters around up and down the row, her friends pointing this way and that way at empty seats at the other end.

She lingers in front of me, and I look up at her. I give in and remove my bag.

The girl sits down, and begins chattering away like a M2 .50 calibre machine gun.

Kind enough to offer a seat (I was not obliged; there were plenty other seats around), yet not kind enough to keep the bloody trap shut.

--------------------

The next time somebody asks me to remove my bag, I will ask "ARE YOU JUST SITTING DOWN, OR ARE YOU GOING TO CHAT WITH YOUR FRIEND THERE?"

No prizes for guessing what my response will be.

'the table's spoilt' is enough to deter her away from that seat.. =D
