Before Lynsey or any of her friends could say something back, Dave said,
"And there's a way to prove that girls talk way more than boys. Unless you're afraid of some competition,
you and your noisy friends."
"Afraid?"
Lynsey said, looking around at the girls.
"We're not afraid
of anything..."
"Okay, here's the deal:
a whole day of no talking
at school. Not in class, not in the halls, not on the playground, nowhere. No talking at all. And it's a contest-boys against girls.
Whichever side talks less, wins."
