Lyrra sat in her office, and today there were no clients. She was waiting for Emily to finish up so they could talk. After a little while, Emily entered and took a seat across from Lyrra's desk. "You wanted to talk to me?" Emily asked while stretching. "Yeah, I need your help with something. You have a friend who knows a friend, who has a cousin that knows another friend who is a scientist, right?" "That's a lot of friends you just mentioned! But yes, I do know someone. What do you need?" "I actually need the scientist's help. Can you tell me how to reach him?" Lyrra said. "Sure! I have his number; I can just give it to you." "Really? Emily, you're amazing! I appreciate it so much!" Lyrra exclaimed happily. "Wow, you must really need his help if you're this excited and saying nice things to me! But what do you need his help for?" Emily asked with curiosity. "I'm not sure yet, but I'll let you know as soon as I find out," Lyrra promised. "Okay then." ------------------- Afte
