Amelia had gotten us lost and had to pull over to look at the map. I was able to let go of the leather chair I was glued to and began to feel the blood rush to my knuckles once again.
(I swear I'm not getting in a car with her again.)
"Have you found out where we are Amelia?"
"Not yet but I will figure it out. California can't be that big."
"You have never been to California till now have you."
"Never. I've only been a few places in America."
"Okay then...."
"And before you say anything you are going to be working the case."
"I've already told you Amelia I don't want to work on this case."
"Why not?"
"Because I'm not a detective.... I also don't use the interconnectedness of the universe for starters."
"Sophia. Once I've told you how the universe works and that you are working the case... You will be working the case. That's just how it works."
"Because you tell me that I'm working the case doesn't mean I will be working the case."
"Of course you will. It's happened to a guy I know."
"Right. Can you just get me home please."
"Okay."
She began to drive again but this time she was driving the speed limit and was being normal.
(Odd.)
