It seemed that everybody is freaking due to the fact that somebody has caught a picture of them. "Guys, calm down. Let me take a good look at the picture." Said Eddie as he bended down and grabbed the newspaper. He looked at the paper and laughed out loud. Barry looked at him confused and even at the end of phone line everyone was silent as they were confused about why Eddie is laughing. "Sure there is a picture of you both but look on the bright side nobody can tell you easily since your picture is blurred." Said Eddie as he showed his best friend the picture properly. The silence was finally broken and everyone started laughing. Barry slumped in the chair with relief because if everyone in Central City recognised her in the picture then nobody would leave her alone and the media outlets would start following her and would be publishing articles about her. Meanwhile at the other side of Central City, Jessie made breakfast with happiness and excitement. Happiness because her father seem to be finally dating and moving on though deep in her heart she knows that her mother will always have a special place in her father's heart and excitement that her plan had finally worked. She can't wait to tell her friends about the success. Just then, Harry came downstairs with a smile on his face because he met an amazing woman and she might have stolen his heart with a single glance towards him. He grabbed the newspaper and kissed his daughter on the forehead and sat down and started reading the newspaper. He nearly spluttered his coffee out when he saw the page where the picture of him and her was posted. Jessie quickly went towards him and asked him "what happened Dad?" He didn't reply but simply pointed the picture, she grabbed the newspaper and stared at the picture and read the article accompanied with it. "There is nothing to worry about Dad. The picture is blurry and nobody can recognize her if that is what you are worried about." Said Jessie as she sat the paper down. But Harry being anxious grabbed his phone and sent a text to Barry asking her whether she has seen the picture. That he is sorry to put her in the spot light and he would understand if she didn't want to see him again. He kept his phone and wouldn't be lying if his heart broke a little when he send her that text. He wouldn't meet any other woman like that again. Then his phone buzzed and he quickly grabbed his phone and sighed with relief. She still wants to meet him for coffee later and understands that sort of thing will happen in the future if they keep on meeting. She is also interested in him. He smiled in happiness and glanced at his daughter who had a smug face. "Don't you dare tell any of your classmates this since I am also not going to tell my employees at STAR Labs". Said Harry at Jessie who nodded her head indicating that she understood him clear and loud.
While this is happening, somewhere in the dark parts of Central City someone has seen the picture and cutter it out of the newspaper and pasted it to a billboard that has newspaper articles about STAR Labs and Dr. Harrison Wells. That person took a step back and stared hard at the board and said "we will meet again soon Dr. Wells"
