History was the last class of the day, after which I was going to head to Anahata.

I slid down in my seat, removing my ear pods readying myself for a discourse on the tactics of divide and rule when the leg of my chair was kicked. I looked up and saw Raë walking by, poker faced, without a glance in my direction. It was a firm kick, enough to push my seat back a couple of inches.

She must have found a way to lower her brain waves, she must have found the narrow window of the theta state. I can bet, she'll be the first amongst us to kindle the supra within her. She's unwavering and single-minded. Also, agile ... dexterous to the point of artful. Clumsy least of all.

She must have kicked my chair on purpose.
