Sensory: Touch

You hear a classmate yelp and the tension rises as your turn nears. Being the last in class to feel the mystery item is not fun. You hear every one's reactions to touching the item, not knowing what it is, you feel wonder mixed with bits of fright. You're excited and yet scared. Then your turn arrives, your heart rate accelerates. You stick your hand into the bucket. The substance feels odd, like hair gel or a gelatin dessert. The goo is as cold as freshly fallen snow. It is brain matter squishy, slimey like saliva. Yuck! And everyone expected a chinchilla! Ha ha!
