I stalked over to the car and climbed in, slamming the door behind me.Hey. He frowned from outside the car. Don't take your anger out on Dolly.You named your car Dolly?What's wrong with that?I rolled my eyes.

In this scene from "Onyx" by Jennifer L. Armentrout, the protagonist expresses her frustration by aggressively getting into her car, named Dolly. This indicates her heightened emotions and need for a release from her anger. The act of slamming the door signifies her irritation and desire to distance herself from the situation.
Her companion outside the car responds with concern, reminding her not to direct her anger at the car, which brings a moment of lightness. The playful exchange about the car's name shows a contrast between her anger and the more humorous element of naming a car, hinting at the complexities of their relationship and the underlying tension they both experience.

The value of money is subjective, depending on age. At the age of one, one multiplies the actual sum by 145,000, making one pound seem like 145,000 pounds to a one-year-old. At seven – Bertie's age – the multiplier is 24, so that five pounds seems like 120 pounds. At the age of twenty four, five pounds is five pounds; at forty five it is divided by 5, so that it seems like one pound and one pound seems like twenty pence. {All figures courtesy of Scottish Government Advice Leaflet: Handling your Money.}

Look, if you say that science will eventually prove there is no God, on that I must differ. No matter how small they take it back, to a tadpole, to an atom, there is always something they can't explain, something that created it all at the end of the search.
And no matter how far they try to go the other way – to extend life, play around with the genes, clone this, clone that, live to one hundred and fifty – at some point, life is over. And then what happens? When the life comes to an end?
I shrugged.
You see?
He leaned back. He smiled.
When you come to the end, that's where God begins.

You say you should have died instead of me. But during my time on earth, people died instead of me, too. It happens every day. When lightning strikes a minute after you are gone, or an airplane crashes that you might have been on. When your colleague falls ill and you do not. We think such things are random. But there is a balance to it all. One withers, another grows. Birth and death are part of a whole.
