Kay was thinking so much over the matter that she was in a daze the whole day at school
Mark and Lance noticed this immediately.
The three of them were having lunch, with Kay poking at her food.
"I think the pasta is quite dead by now," Lance said with a straight face.
Kay, breaking out of her daze, looked up at them.
"Sorry," Kay apologized, "I'm a bit out of it today."
"We can see that," Mark said, inching closer to her.
Without missing a beat, Kay grabbed his head, twisted it to the side and as his body moved on instinct to avoid the twist, she placed both hands on his back and pushed him off the chair.
Lance, who was sitting opposite of Kay, tilted his head and asked while ignoring the tumbling Mark, "Anything we can do to help?"
Kay shook her head.
Mark got up hastily, dusted himself and sat back down, acting as if nothing had happened.
It was the normal routine.
