The inquisitive student


Miss Chic:  “So Baji. Like, why do we call you Baji?” 
“Because I am your teacher,” Baji sternly reminds her, as she obviously seems to have forgotten.
Miss Chic: “Baji means big sister, so are you, like, our big sister?” she grins.
Baji: “I am your teacher. And don’t you forget it.”
“Hmm.” She answers thoughtfully, apparently, blissfully unaware of this until today. 

A few moments later, “Baji...can we call you by your first name?”  
Baji: No you cannot”
Miss Chic: “Hmmm……..”

A few moments later,  “So Baji…how old are you…?”
“If only you were as interested in the lesson as you are about my life.” Baji retorts back.
“Hmmm…” Miss Chic answers again. 

Thankfully, Miss Chic carries on with the rest of her work for the remainder lesson.  But Miss Chic isn’t one to let sleeping dogs lie…
