Maths For Real Life, Period 1, Class 11 [3/24]

This morning, Jean-Paul stood before his class, looking giddy as a freaking schoolgirl. "Today we are going to talk about stocks! And bonds!" Jean-Paul loved stocks and bonds. This might be kind of obvious. They had, after all, made him quite rich. "It is all actually quite simple."

He then proceeded to give an explanation that was approximately the opposite of simple and assumed the listener had about as much enthusiasm on the subject as he did. "Are there any questions?"

Michael was trying to pay attention, but his eyes had glazed over a little.

There was boggling. Oh, there was boggling.

Adah's eyes were closed, but she was listening carefully to the lecture, certainly not sleeping or anything like that. It was just that it was so blissful, to be sitting there, without the weight of a child pulling at her neck thanks to the baby sling, or to not hear crying ringing in her ear, or to not feel sharp stabs of pain in her scalp from pulling hair.

Blissful. Utterly blissful, to just be able to sit, and listen to something as simple as a lecture on stocks.

Harry found himself putting a hand to his ear at one point during the lecture. He'd been checking to make sure his brain wasn't leaking out.

...

Makoto wondered if all of this fuss was really necessary. Even just hearing about it was giving him a headache.
