An hour and some

Damn! Am a couple of minutes late, will have trouble finding a seat at the back. Well, what the heck! Can’t do much about it now…Oh well, not so late after all. Half the class is empty anyway. The prof not in yet – disgusting piece of shit. Ah, there’s Kriti. And looking nice today, don’t think I’ve spotted her in that sweater before. Empty seat next to her too! Opportunity. But hell! There’s no one else I know around her. Damn the regular fellas for sitting so far away! Will make a fool of myself if I sit next to her now. Those kids will absolutely screw me! …No no, can’t let that happen. Come on, dude, you really think too much! What do you suppose will happen? They’ll crack a few jokes and that’ll be the end of it. As if they won’t do it otherwise! But what’ll she think if I go sit there, won’t it be uncomfortable for her too. No, why should she? Remember the other day, when she herself came and sat next to you! Why can’t you do the same? Yeah, true…ridiculous if I keep thinking that way. Fuck the teasing, I am gonna sit next to her today. Shit man, that part of the class is too empty, we’ll be too conspicuous. Hey, wait, there’s Jatin sitting in that row just below her. Can get myself a seat there, I suppose. Spare myself the leg pulling. And close enough too. Yup, that’s where I m gonna sit today. Yes, let me wish her morning. Hello! And others around too, lest it look I singled her out. Hello, hello. Hello everyone! Yeah, great. Nice and settled now. Oh! The prof’s here! How long has he been here? Oh well, fuck it! How does it matter? Let me get down to reading the novel. Gotta finish it by this weekend. Getting slack at reading these days. All those stupid movies I watch take up too much time. Oh yes, should suggest that movie I saw the other day to Jatin. What was its name? Something with an ‘S’, wasn’t it? Forgot, never mind. Will tell him later. Where was I? Around page 105, I think. Yes, found it, 103. Excellent. Has he started teaching anything yet? What was that? Core competence? Oh great! There we go again! I can’t take this shit anymore. Just let me get out of here safe and fast. Look at that fucking apology of a slide he’s put up. What is strategy, it seems. I suppose he’ll go around asking that of us now. Yup, as I said. And some pathetic cock in the class will answer him too. There! Right again! It is about what to do and also what not to do, it seems. Profound. Oh, chuck it, let me get back to reading. Is she looking at me? She might be. Can’t very well turn around and see if she is. Would be a dead giveaway. Why am I so bothered about all this? Let her look if she wants to, doesn’t hurt me nothing. I’ll continue reading. Oh wait, what was it the fellow just said? Sometimes, you need to step back and look at what your company is doing? Is that what he said? My God! What subject is this? Business Philosophy? Where do they get these characters from? Complete waste of two years, this. Damn, why can’t I concentrate on the novel. Bloody boring style of writing, I guess. Don’t know how they called it a classic. Amazing, what people come to like! Got to start working on that project thing now. Deadline’s in a couple of days. Sad team, I got. Two don’t have any brains and the one that has some doesn’t work. Fuck it, who cares? Hey, that can be great tagline for some ad, I suppose. Who cares? We do. Easily fit into some bank or insurance ad. Will work on this later. Got to do the project though. Bloody ashamed of my CV, I am. If I don’t find more to put on it sometime soon, I am destined work for some cock company. Can’t let that happen… Wait, what’s the kid asking? Who’s read the case? Case? What case? Hell, who’s bothered! Nobody’s read it, I am sure. Poor fellow. Feel sorry for these profs sometimes. Not one person listening. As good as talking to any empty class, really. Must be disastrous for one’s self respect, I suppose. But really, can’t expect the students to listen attentively to crap! Oh crap! I feel like farting. Disgusting mess food! Which reminds me, gotta pay my mess dues tommorow. Gotta stop myself from farting! How can I stop it? That awful sound in the tummy when you don’t let the thing out and it comes back up! Equally embarrassing. Why did God have to include all these audible mechanisms in us? Couldn’t He have just done away with these embarrassing bits. Didn’t count on social etiquette, I guess. All his past experiences were in manufacturing fucking four legged animals, never realized what the world would come to! Hmm, pretty interesting thought that. Wonder if anyone’s thought this way before… Hey, what’s this? Didn’t I start at page 103. This is page 106! When did I turn the pages? I’ve read through 3 pages without reading them. Will have to read them again, such a waste of time this. Oh, just chuck it. Not reading them again, don’t think it was critical to the story anyway. Can’t carry on like this any longer now. Fuck the book, I’ll just close my eyes and take a nap. How much time left? 20 min. Yeah, sleeping 20 minutes should do me good. Badly need to sleep. Will go back to my room after this and lie down for a bit. Unless, we decide to play cricket or something. Yes, should play cricket. Nice weather and nobody’s got any work, I am sure. There’ll be enough ready to play. That’s it then. Cricket, after this damn lecture is done. Will get a coffee on my way back, help with the sleepiness somewhat. Could offer Kriti a coffee too. Along with the rest of the lot, of course. The day I buy her, alone, a coffee will be the end of me. What’s she doing by the way? Oh, she’s dozed off! Great, let me do the same. Another 10 minutes to go. I know what I’ll do in the next class and find a nice seat somewhere. And with some luck, Kriti might sit next to me. Even otherwise, I can always read. Damn, got to finish the novel by this weekend…
