Dolph watched the transaction; it seemed to be going well. The cashier took the money and handed the bags of craft material to Dolph and Corey. Dolph felt he could manage two bags, especially with the crutches to help his walking. The cashier seemed to think that he and Corey were students.

Once they were safely away, Dolph asked Corey, "What's a student?"
