I think that's a function of how much the boy wrote in his exam paper and how much the girl did. Obviously the boy was busy leching at the girl and must've written only a couple of pages. The girl, on the other hand, seems very studious. So she must've written many more pages. So, it was inevitable that her pen should run out before his.

Sorry couldn't resist. Hero pens rock! :-)

I don't think it has anything to do with leching. it just has to do with how much boys and girls write. on an average, I've observed that girls take thrice the number of additional booklets as boys (of course i'm not counting cases where boys take 0 additional booklets). so it's only because of that that the boy has enough ink left over to lend her some stuff.
