Chapter Eighty-Five ⚡Radio Silence⚡
"The corpus callosum is not only the largest white matter structure in the brain, but also the bridge connecting all parts of the brain to each other. The ability for all parts of the brain to communicate and to work together help us make leaps in cognitive thinking. Any questions? Thoughts? Insight?" Ms. Finch explained.
Amara sighed softly and glanced out the window ro see a blue jeep sitting in the parking lot and a guy from the tow truck company looking it over. She stared at it for a moment as she felt a sense of familiarity.
"Amara." Ms Finch said making Amara look at Ms. Finch, "What?" Amara asked and Ms. Finch hummed and nodded slightly before pointing at the window. "Is there something outside that's more fascinating than the structure of the human mind?" Ms. Finch asked and Amara shrugged slightly.
"Yeah." She said without thinking making Ms. Finch raise her eyebrows as Lydia lightly pinched Amara's arm. "No." Amara corrected herself and Ms. Finch nodded, "Okay, good. Now, many people credit the corpus callosum, uh, for giving us a sense of intuition, gut instinct, that even we ourselves aren't aware." Ms. Finch started explaining.
Amara glanced over at Lydia and Scott as Ms. Finch started walking away. Lydia was sitting next to Amara and Scott was sitting at the table next to them, both looking at Amara confused. Amara shrugged slightly. before looking back out the widow to see the guy starting to hook up the jeep. "I'll be right back." Amara said before getting up and running out of class.
"Hey! Hey, you can't tow this Jeep!" Amara said as she ran out side and over to the jeep making the guy look over at her. "Paperwork says I can. It's reported as abandoned." He said and she rolled her eyes before resting her hand on the jeep, "Not anymore." She said making him raise his eyebrows at her.
"Oh, this is your vehicle?" He asked and she rolled her eyes again, "Does it matter?" She asked and he scoffed. "Sounds like a no." He said and she went to say something but Scott and Lydia ran up to them. "It's mine! Uh, my Jeep. Thank you. I'll move it... once I get the keys... from my locker... after you leave." Scott said.
"I'm sorry. Once it's on the hook-" The guy started to say but Lydia cut him off, "Please don't say, "You're on the hook."" Lydia cringed. "Well, I can't now." He said and went to move but Scott spoke up, "Oh, I... Okay, look, there's gotta be something that we can do. Sign something? Call someone-"
"Pay someone?" Amara asked making the guy look over at her for a moment before smirking, "Drop fee is a hundred and fifty. Cash." He said and Scott's eyes widened. "A hundred and fifty? This thing isn't even worth that much." Scott said, looking over at Amara, who just rolled her eyes as she and Lydia pulled out their wallets.
"How much you got?" Lydia asked as Scott counted his money, "Uh, how much have you got?" He asked and she rolled her eyes slightly. "Just give me your money." Amara said and he sighed and held up his money, cAll I have is fifty dollars. And when I say "all," I mean all-" He said and she just grabbed his money as Lydia handed her some and Amara handed it to the guy.
