" Can you follow me out?", she asked jokingly,
" In the middle of a class?",
"Just kidding", she said and turned back to the teacher.
' I have to do this now ', he thought and unlocked the mind-reading ability that he locked when he was 9 which was because he was unable to concentrate on reading a person's mind at a time, and reading countless minds at a time nearly made him run mad. Though he's not so sure about it still it's necessary now.
He looked at Catherine and heard her thinking if he was alright.
' yes, perfect timing ',
"hey, Catherine",
"huh?",
"did you have water with you?",
"no, is that why you look so uneasy?",
"yes, I'm thirsty",
Catherine stood up at once and went to the teacher,
"excuse me, sir",
"yes?",
"Please I will like to ease myself",
"ok sure", he permitted her.
