"Wow Yuliy, I've never seen you chow down your rice that fast." Phillip says. 

"I'm hungry." I say eating.

"No offense but you've been shaking ever since we got home. Are you okay?" Phillip asks.

I hear the phone ring. Finally, a saving grace. I stand up and I take the phone. 

"Hello?" I ask.

"Yuliy, how is it going? We haven't found anything yet." Professor says through the phone.

"Fine." I growl. 

"Are you alright Yuliy?" Professor asks.

"I'm fine." I say.

"What have you found?"

"Nothing." I lie.

"You can tell me Yuliy." 

"I haven't found anything." I hiss.

"We'll meet up with you there in a couple of days." He says. 

I nod.

"I'll see you soon Yuliy." He says.

"Yeah." I hang up the phone.

Phillip looks at me.

"What did the Professor say?" Phillip asks.

"He's meeting with us soon." I sit back down.

"Did he find anything?" Phillip asks. 

"No." I say.

I go back to eating. Phillip is starring at me.

"What's wrong?" I ask him.

"Nothing." He looks away.

"If you want to ask me something, do it." I say.

"Alright. What's your beef with the professor?" He asks.

I look up at him.

"What?" I ask.

"C'mon. I know you have issues. You've been acting really angry at him." Phillip says.

"It's none of your business." I hiss.

"Alright, alright." Phillip draws back.
