19 It's Important

Julie quickly sat down at her desk, when she heard footsteps approach the room.

"Miss Liang," he nodded his head as if they knew eachother and opened his black suit jacket, taking a seat in the chair opposite her, across the desk.

Lina looked on, slightly confused by his comfortable body language. He placed a hand on her desk and removed a pencil from the pot, placing it in his mouth like a cigarette.

"This school hires idiots." he said matter of a fact.

Lina sat up straight and frowned at the baiting comment, "Excuse me?"

"What? No I'm not talking about you obviously." he said giving her a strange look.

He continued to lean back in the chair, running the orange pencil between his two fingers, and tapping it on the desk, causing tiny pencil marks to dot the light wooden surface.

Lina watched the marks with her eye, tempted to clean them.

She tilted her head; watching him carefully and slightly puzzled.
