Same words 5

Though still handing a great mess of tech assignments, Greg couldn't help searching someone out round his lab after his talk with Sophia. He couldn't help wondering what had happened, what Sophia had talked about and what the hell was is. These question marks were winging around him like headache.

"Sara!" Greg almost shouted her name when Sara walked by

Sara was startled by his high decibel and just gazed at him with perplexedly.

"Come in!" Greg looked around, lowed his voice and gave her a gesture.

"What's up?" Sara came close to him.

"I…" Greg moved even closer. Suddenly he stopped his sentence and stared at Sara's neck, "You've found your necklace? Or you've bought a new one?" Greg changed his talking direction.

"Oh." Sara had a scan at her necklace and replied, "Griss found it somewhere and gave back to me right now."

"In the garage?" Greg added.

"Yeah. When Nick and I were checking the car together." Sara specified.

Greg was totally confused. How can he connect this to what Sophia had said before? He looked Sara up and down in an incredible eyes, "And you even had no joy about your necklace's coming back? I mean which you cared so much before?"

Sara gave him a plain smile and said: "The same way, lost and found, I stop looking."

Greg opened his mouth, didn't know what to say.

Sara smiled back, a totally Sara fake smile, and left without another word.

It was before turning to the corner that Sara saw Griss round the corner and came from her. She stopped for not a second and turned back to the opposite direction immediately.

"Sara!" Griss tried to call her stop.

Sara didn't stop but faced back and answered, "Haven't finished yet!"

"If you got…" Griss tried again.

"If got new info, I'll let you know ASAP!" Sara ended this talking and disappeared at another corner.

Griss pursed his lips and swallowed what he really wanted to say, not only because it wasn't the right occasion, but also because it wasn't the right time. He need some time and so did Sara.

"Flee back from disaster?" when Sara went back to the garage Nick kidded.

"Hey! I was checking results with other labs!" Sara refuted seriously.

Nick gave her a glance and continued, "I saw someone round the whole lab to come here in order to avoid facing somebody else."

Sara didn't answer this time but went on her work.

The garage fell into silence for a white, a while that almost meant a year or longer, a rough time to pass.

"Would you say same words to different people? I mean some words that sound something behind." Sara broke this intolerable with a peaceful tone.

Nick stared at her going on with the work but without any expression in her face. He thought for a second and asked: "For example you said something might be meaningful to both Greg and me?"

"Sort of." Sara still didn't move her attention from her work.

"We're a family." Nick explained.

No reaction to him this time.

Yeah! They are a family, a family more than a team. That means they possibly like each other and possibly trust each other, as they are a team, a union.

A union means every member here is important. Every member! Not only her Sara. Sara didn't know what conclusion she would get if she continued his clue. She felt hurt, hurt made in the past but pains in the further.

Nick felt this troublesome. He knew Sara won't talk about her problem openly especially when it concerned to her boss. But he thought he need to say something, something to give her a hand when he saw her struggling in the abyss, "Why not ask him your question directly?"

"How to?" Sara answered unconsciously.

When she realized what Nick asked and what she answered right now, she was a little shock. She turned her face to Nick.

Nick gave her a smile, a smile full of gentle, care, and understanding. She smiled from her heart.

She knew she said something she won't say at usual but she didn't regret. She got trust and understanding. Almost every member of the team could read her heart clearly, except one person.

"I won't." Sara forced her smile and continued her work, her work, the only thing could let her forget the pain.

Thanks for Ayesha84's reviews. I'm still struggling to find a good ending for them as I love them as much as you. And thanks for everyone who has R&R so far!
