Elisa stayed composed as she entered the experimentation area. She looked at Jeremy. "Shall I explain my progress so far?"
Jeremy was taken aback. He knew she would explain the experiment but was still surprised, nonetheless.
"Sure."
Elisa nodded and pointed toward the things on the table.
Their eyes followed her line of sight and spotted a round glass flask.
Elisa introduced it again. "This liquid here is…"
She continued to explain a list of things. Her gloved hands gestured about as she instructed them.
Gareth, who could not help much, only listened earnestly to her explanations.
Jeremy, on the other hand, served Elisa closely. He wanted to save Julia, but at that moment, he wanted to help Elisa with her research more. It was almost as if the desire to help his role model in her research overwhelmed his desire to save Julia.
Gareth stood to the side. He was not an expert in the area and had no idea what could be done with the things before him.
Even when Elisa and Jeremy were discussing, the technical terms they used were gibberish to him.
He suddenly felt the gaping distance between him and Elisa.
She was right before his eyes. But he had never looked at her properly before.
Gareth watched as she lowered down and handled the liquids in the flasks. He pursed his lips silently, feeling helpless and anxious.
