Chapter 6
Lee was loving all this, he was surrounded by the equipment he had grown to know and love, he knew every piece of scientific equipment that had ever been invented, Robert was over talking to one of his colleagues. Lee looked over, Alex was leaning on a table looking bored out of her skull, her earphones blaring out her music. Lee walked over and stood next his sister, he lifted the ear piece out of her ear and looked at her, usually Alex would have yelled at anyone touching her CD player but Lee could get away with a lot of things, they had a very strong bond,
"you look bored as hell, you ok"
Alex looked at her brother
"yeah just bored as hell, you know I'm not interested in any of this stuff, you go and have fun, create a liquid that I can blow stuff up with"
Lee laughed
"I don't need to create that, all you have to do is take a liquid like sulphuric acid or pertol and there you have it, put it in a microwave and then boom"
Alex ruffled her brothers hair
"I'll have to remember that one, if I do they'll think you did it because you are the brains of the family".
Alex then turned to see her Father walking towards her
"Lee, Steve wants to take you and show you the main research Lab, so why don't you do that and I'll take Alex and give her something to do".
Lee smiled and said
"yeah sure, see ya later Alex"
Alex watched her brother walk away and then she turned to her Father, he looked disappointed
"Alex why don't you take an interest like your brother, when I was your age I had my own lab and was producing life saving cures for people. You could do that, all you have to do is make an effort"
Alex sighed
"look I've got news for you I am not interested in science ok, I am not you I am into my own things and science doesn't come anywhere near ok, I mean yo have the thing you want right in front of your face and yet you don't take as much notice, Lee wants to be so much like you, teach him the way you want to teach me and there you have a great son".
Alex looked straight into her Father's eyes, she had always been the one not afraid to speak her mind.
Robert sighed, he had tried,
"alright fair enough, I'll tell you what just take an interest today and I promise I'll never bring you here again ok, and I will take more interest in doing the things Lee wants me to do with him......ok"
Alex smiled "ok deal, so what do I have to do".
