Kim was wowed at what he was doing. She looked at the book to see if he was writing out of line but to her surprise he was writing perfectly. "Awesome" she said in her heart. He handed her the book still concentrated to what was been said. "No. He couldn't get into the room it is but he could smell it. And we all know that Riggs has a very good nose" Carl replied. " Why not let's be a bit positive. The brom is very rare and can also have similar smile with some chemical. Moreover how did Riggs know what a brom is?" Lexie rushed out. She was super scared and didn't want to panick so she decided to ask positive questions. "How did you know about the drion. You've not seen it either" Carl replied. " Be calm on her. Don't make her panick too much. Remember she's pregnant" Maureen scolded. " It's fine mum" Lexie did with a sad smile. Kim was still busy reading what Jeff wrote for her. She wondered how he could write so much in few minutes. As she read the depth of what he wrote she begin to develop fears. She really didn't know there is a thing that could harm them. "I'm not trying to scare her mum" Carl said. " So what's the next thing to do now?" Lexie asked. " You have to calm down Lexie. Now that we've discovered the problem, a solution will be very easy" Jeff said softly. Lexie shook her head. " It's not easy and you know that" she disagreed. " The drion has an antidote. We should get it" Alec said. They all looked at him as if he is crazy. This is because to prepare an antidote is the most stressful thing ever and they would also need the drion to prepare it. "Do you know what you are talking about son?" Dean asked. " What other solution do we have that would be safe aside that?" Alec asked nonchalantly. " We know it is safe but Alec we have a very short time to Paul's book launch. Paul's book launch is in three days time and to prepare an antidote will take at least six days" Dean said defeatedly. He himself has never prepared an antidote before but as their culture is, they were all educated on everything that could affect them and what could counter it. He also made sure he taught his children. "It will be too late by then" Maureen said with fear. "We really need to think fast" Carl said. " We can't think of we all have fears in our heart. You know how our bodies is been fashioned. Fears is not good for us at all" Alec warned. They all agreed to what he said and they tend to relax their mind bit by bit. They continued to deliberate and strategize on what to do. They came up with a lot of thing that could counter Vin's plan. But Kim thought they were missing something important. "I think we are missing something here" Kim said softly. She has been quiet all the while observing what they were saying and doing. They all looked at her. "And what is that babe?" Jeff asked focused. He has known Kim to be someone who thinks deeply before she talks and her rare words always prefer solution. "I'm just thinking, as you've said that the man has been looking for so many ways to hurt you. What if he sees through most of your plans and smuggled the chemical into the party? What then shall we do?" She asked. This got them thinking. They knew it's not as if they are invincible and knowing Vin well enough, he would also have a lot of strategies to carry out his plan. "Yes you spoke well. That man is a viper" Maureen agreed with her. " I don't know if what I'm thinking is real because I do see them in movies......" She paused looking at them. " Ok" Dean said with an impassive look. Kim sighed. She didn't know if what she's about to say will make sense but she knew she needed to say it to know if it is possible. "Like creating an artificial skin that can be worn to protect the skin from any form to damage" she said. Her heart rate was beating so hard because she didn't know if she acted stupidly. They looked at her with surprise. "Wow! Anytime you open your mouth sense comes out of it" Dean praised and even smiled. The man has never smiled to her before. He looks so standoffish that his aura alone create fear. So seeing his smiles and his words made her heart leap for joy. "That's a brilliant idea Kim" Alec praised. " We didn't even think about it" Lexie said in jubilee.
