[center][h3][color=6ecff6]Home - Saturday[/color][/h3][/center][hr]
[color=6ecff6]"Oh my God..."[/color] 

That was probably the most horrible night he ever had. Not the most, but still unpleasant as his bottom was numbed from all those time spent sitting down on his chair. Not to mention he was still in the suit from yesterday, as getting himself changed was one nigh-impossible task once his legs are useless. It was during these times that he knew the full value of having Jeanie by his side. Disabled people usually try to be as normal as they could, saying how they were still as capable as a physically abled, but the real truth is that they still have to rely on some people in some aspects. Thomas knew that, so for those that he had to rely on Jeanie, he'd be more accepting. 

[color=green]"Hello. I'm home."[/color] Heard the sound of his life coming back to him. [color=green]"Oh my goodness me."[/color] The woman immediately rushed for Thomas, noticing in the shape he was in. 

A rather 'interesting' event to start the weekend...[hr]

[color=fff257]"Come in Thomas."[/color] The professor called as Thomas stood, or in his case sat, by the door, being the last student aboard his class. With the confirmation that he was allowed to come in, he pushed the joystick forward, thrusting him deep into the room, parking right at the end of the table.

[color=fff257]"Alright. Doesn't look like you boys have been faring well with your assignments."[/color] Once Thomas settled in, the professor began to look over the sheets he had on his hand. [color=fff257]"Brian, the probability is not 1/2. It's 2/3. Yeah, I know. You need to rethink that."[/color] He turned to one student, passing the paper to him. [color=fff257]"And Rie, it's...just baffling."[/color] And then to him. 

Once everybody was passed, he turned to Thomas. [color=fff257]"Have you done it?"[/color] 

[color=6ecff6]"Oh, sorry professor..."[/color] He scoured through his bag for the paper. [color=6ecff6]"Here."[/color] 

He placed the paper on the table, and other students automatically passed it to the other end of the table. 

[color=6ecff6]"The final one's more complicated than I thought. I could only do nine."[/color] 

The word left everybody in complete silence. The professor spent a moment looking over the paper he just gave him. It really is true. He finished nine out of the ten impeccable questions. 

One student turned to Thomas, still baffled. [color=red]"Nine?"[/color][hr]
By the time everybody was leaving the room, the professor stopped the one latest out of the classroom. Who else...

[color=fff257]"Thomas. I want to talk to you a little bit."[/color] He said. [color=fff257]"No no, you're not in trouble. It's just something I want to discuss."[/color]

[color=6ecff6]"Sure professor. What is it?"[/color] 

[color=fff257]"If you don't mind, we can discuss it while we have our breakfast. A late breakfast shall we?"[/color][hr] 
[center][h3][color=6ecff6]Coffee Pot - Monday[/color][/h3][/center][hr]
[color=6ecff6]"Coffee Pot? You have a good taste professor."[/color] Said Thomas as he rolled down the street of Sol City, followed closely by a tall and nicely dressed man in a nice grey suit and tie. 

[color=fff257]"I know right? I'm surprised I did not find this place sooner than I should."[/color]

[color=6ecff6]"But anyway, what is it that you want to talk about?"[/color] 

[color=fff257]"I figure you may have asked."[/color] The professor said. [color=fff257]"Well, I read all the questions you did. And I saw something intriguing."[/color] 

[color=6ecff6]"About the solution?"[/color]

[color=fff257]"No, about you."[/color] He replied. [color=fff257]"You see, I've had my doubts and so on about your thesis subject. It is not really a safe one, as it falls greatly on the line of debates. But the great thing about walking on those lines is that one will never know whom on those lines would be the one making a great leap forward, and when."[/color]

[I][color=6ecff6]'Leap forward...'[/color][/I] In silence he thought.

[color=fff257]"So I want to give an invitation. Soon, there will be a well-known professor from overseas coming to Solaris for a week's lecture about neuroscience. It is open for everyone, even outsiders, but only those invited would have a good seat for the presentation. Since it is for everyone, so I expect it to not be so complicated, but there will be interesting key points from his recent studies that you may want to use."[/color] 

[color=6ecff6]"Hmm..."[/color] Thomas was still rolling down the street, as he was in deep thoughts. The lecture is indeed for everyone, so it shouldn't be anything he expected, but if he did not attend, he may miss some of the important, and perhaps essential breakthrough points for his thesis. He should not be wasting any opportunity.

[color=6ecff6]"I think that's a great idea. Thank you professor."[/color] He gladly gave a smile back. 

[color=fff257]"No problem. Ah, here we are."[/color] He replied, before modestly lend the way for Thomas to go in first. 

The two men walked, one rolling, into the café, taking a nearby seat, next to a window. While the wheelchair-bound student was trying to settle in, the other man walked to get their orders. [color=fff257]"Eggs, bacon and sausages?"[/color] He briefly turned back to Thomas as the man in question gave a thumbs-up. Easy but tasty breakfast, coming up...
