Having a new-found confidence with the fact that Elliot was beside her, Cora smiled. She didn't have the chance to say hello before the professor began class, though. Hmmm, what is an herb... Cora knew what herbs were, well, of course! They were used in so much, in teas, medicines, food...
Obviously, Cora would not normally be the first to answer anyway. She knew it all, but was a bit intimidated by the sheer number of students in this class. She would NOT be one of those students simply repeating word for word what everyone said. Herbs are leaves. Plants. Used in medicine and food. On and on.
Cora took notes quickly. Nice, neat, perfect notes. But she didn't respond about what they were saying. Eventually, she remembered what her mother had told her: "Herbs contain anti-oxidants, vitamins, and phyto-sterols, which help to fight against all sorts of diseases, injuries, and curses," Cora replied, trying to remember anxiously if something like that had already been said. |
