Scanning my keycard in the door as I greet Jason and Zach (security) in the hall. I see Zapata waiting for me, stood in her long black coat and black beanie, also with a Starbucks in her hands. "Did you get one for me!" I shout humorously hoping she can hear me. She just nods in the direction of the elevator . My blonde curls bouncing on my shoulder as I almost run towards her. She hugs me briefly then we enter the elevator. Tasha presses the button that takes us into the main office and we stand there waiting for the doors open. For some odd reason she doesn't make conversation.
The doors open and we step out. I see Reade in his office looking at me and Zapata. I wave frantically while Zapata is taking off her outdoor clothes and looking at the floor miserably. "What's wrong Tasha?" I ask with a concerned tone in my voice. "Uh nothing." She replies quietly. Why is Sioc so busy? I think. Weller runs up to me talking about a lead that him and Rich have found on a tattoo. I just keep nodding at him as we go to the lab.
I lay down my belongings at my desk drinking a bottle of water. My team give me a morning briefing about the lead and they prepare to leave for the field. Rich comes up to me and tells me about the Quantico recruits who are waiting in Reade's office. "Ah, that's why Sioc was so busy. The shadowing thing is today!" I say as unenthusiastic as I can be. "Mhm. And I need to talk to you." Rich exclaims looking at me with his smug face. "Rich what?? I'm busy!" I say. "We need to talk book of secrets" says Rich. I look at him angrily and walk out of the lab. "Wait why don't you wanna talk about the book of secrets?" Said Rich. "I told you why, and I told you not to call it that." He can tell that he's annoyed me. "Okay I'm sorry but Book of secrets in the perfect name for an ancient, South American tome that hold magical cures. It might hold a cure for Jane" at this point I'm just not listening "Book of secrets!" Rich speaks hopefully. "It doesn't, magic is not real." I say because I have to give a reply. "No I didn't say magic, I'm not seven, I said magical cures, and you don't even wanna take a chance." He says making me laugh with his tone. "No I don't, there's no evidence that it even exists, it's a complete waste of time." Rolling my eyes at him. "Totally, I totally get that.. but what if it isn't?" Rich says. I look at him, breathe heavily and head back into the lab, making sure he doesn't follow me. But I can picture him smiling at me as I walk back in elegantly flipping my hair to show off.
