* // with the buzz of music playing beyond the earphones stuffed into each ear; ravi seemed quite oblivious to all that was currently around him. but that didn’t seem to bother him, in fact, he seemed more in his little realm than anywhere else, and in his world, a little fire was necessary. so, without a worry in the world, he didn’t seem to care about the rules he’d been forced to follow, and with the casual click of his fingers, the bright flame sparked each time, before holding for a second, and disappearing. it wasn’t until he clicked again, and diverted his attention toward it, that it seemed to get bigger, and retain life a little longer. if an instructor caught him playing with fire inside, he was sure they wouldn’t hesitate in completely dousing him with water and making sure he stayed extinguished. but despite the miniature risk he seemed to be taking, his interest within it seemed to lack as he knew he wasn’t going to burn down half the building like they always made the assumption of. but maybe he’d spice things up a little today //*
