Kelly grabbed her books from the library table in front of her, deciding to read in bed for a bit before it was time for bed. The elf walked down the hallway, now used to the chill in the air. As she walked, she slipped her shoes off and let her bare feet slap against the marble. The halls were surprisingly busy for this hour, but many of the other students were probably moving closer to their dorms. Kelly found herself stuck behind a brooding man walking agonizingly slow.
He was smoking with one hand and carrying a bottle in another. His cigarette smoke blew back into her face as she was unable to pass him. She huffed, having no tolerance for smoking or such slow walking. To avoid disrupting her calm chi, she tapped the man on the shoulder.
"Excuse me, could you please walk a bit faster?" she asked. The man didn't seem to hear her. When she heard the metal music, she understood. It was unlike the elf to become angry, but she was so on edge this evening. All Kelly wanted to do was rip the stupid headphones out of his ear, stamp out his cigarette, and shove him out of the way! He was going to make himself deaf listening to music that loud anyway. She noticed her anger escalating, so she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She would just have to be patient until she could maneuver around the man in front of her.
