KATHRYN 1, 2, 3, nope it’s not working 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9... Still not working! Counting usually calms me down but now? If it’s doing anything it’s making me angrier. 1, 2, 3 crud! I can’t even make it to 5 now. “You’re kidding right? You must be Bobo the clown if you think I’m letting you take lead on this practice.” I’m trying to keep my temper in check but I am failing terribly, not that he can notice. My mask is on, which means my face is expressionless and my voice is neutral. But inside, I’m burning him at the stake! I mean what is this guy’s deal? He’s been picking at me since we met and now it’s like the universe wants to have a laugh, why else would we be lab partners? “Please," he scoffs. "Like I’m listening to a pussycat.” The Neanderthal hogs the instructions paper
