[quote=@Stern Algorithm] Ah!" Vedika called out in surprise, "The boy who's going to punch me!" She stood up with a slight clatter, nudging the table, and pointing at Jason. Then, as quickly as she had stood up, she turned her face down, brows furrowed, a look of deep thought on her face as she tried to remember what Paulina had just told her. Lightly slamming her fist into her palm, she looked back up again, saying, "My name is Vedika Venkatraman, what's your name?" She felt proud that she had asked him his name just like Paulina advised. [/quote] Jason almost let his confusion show, in the form of a raised eyebrow and cocked head. He couldn't tell if she was joking or what. But he didn't want to embarrass her so he kept a straight face. It was the girl who had stopped his punch earlier. He didn't resent her for it, and he had even come to understand it from her perspective, he just disagreed. She had offered to let him punch her earlier. He cracked a grin, time to take advantage of that. "I think I wanna take you up on your offer..." he said with a dark tone. He drew his fist back and punched at her chest level. However just before his fist connected he stopped it instantly. And opened his hand for a handshake, laughing. "I'm just fuckin with ya." He said jokingly. "Nice to meet you Vedika, I'm Jason."
