Cori's face scrunched up as she pieced together what Valerie had just said. She only caught a few words like 'don't' and 'middle' but she could only assume what ever else Valerie said was just as snippy as she tended to be. It wasn't like she hadn't already apologized. Then again, the girls probably had no idea that that's what she was doing when she rubbed her chest.
She saw the mouth of the younger Spinelli girl start moving and squinted, trying to make out what she was saying. If she really cared, she would have tried harder to understand the girl and lip read but she didn't seem to be saying anything rude considering she was still hiding behind Valerie. But then they were both talking and Cori looked at them, rather confused. What ever they were saying, wasn't directed to her though so she just watched them go back and forth.
Cori laughed at Valerie when she spoke so slowly to her and pulled a small notepad and pen out of her backpack. 'I'm deaf, not dumb,' she scribbled down, ripping it out and giving it to Valerie smirking still.
