Sarah’s class had a substitute teacher. Geography class.
And the geography teacher, I mean sub, asked a math question.
How many grams were in an ounce?
A boy who sits near Sarah ‘s hand shot up, and he gave the teacher the correct figure.
The sub was very impressed with the speed and accuracy shown by the young man. “You must be a real math whiz!” he exclaimed.
Sarah was surprised, since this boy usually sits immobile in class with his eyes closed or half closed. She might have accepted the fact that geography wasn’t his “thing” and math was except that sitting behind the interpreter was a girl who said, in a quiet voice- a voice too quiet for the sub, but loud enough for the interpreter to hear and interpret, “That is because he sells drugs. He is really good at anything related to them.”
