Flint watched the clock above the blackboard and could swear he could hear the seconds waist away. He distracted himself and looked over to Ilya "So do anything over the weekend?" He asked for no particular reason, he hoped the response would be "No not really you?" Then he would reply "Nope" So that the conversation would be as short as possible. Flint wasn't the kind of person to divulge in idle chit chat and would normally ask a question if he actually wanted the answer. But he had been told he should talk more and so here he was asking a pointless question Flint didn't care nor need to know the answer too.
