I hadn't meant to stare, honestly. I'd realised it was Rukia — the girl I'd met that day I'd searched for a way to listen to my tape — and meant to leave it at that. But then I saw what she was doing, some sort of martial art, and it was so impressive. It was so unlike anything I'd ever seen. The look of determination, I think, that's what made me stick around.
I was caught off guard when she waved at me, but I waved back, trying not to flush red for having been spotted watching. I did that a fair amount in Darrow, just like I had at Hailsham, and for most of my life. I was an observer, some would say, while others would argue nosy.
