***A woman with a voice is, by definition, a strong woman***

Ella could breathe finally, she could smell that rest coming her way, which she thought was long overdue.

Her thesis was validated! Her hard work paid off. And she had never been this happy in a very long time.

...Half an hour ago...

"Miss Ella, do you realize how much this is revolutionary, if this theory proves right"

Dr. Joan Grace Baptist asked. Just as they had discussed previously. Ella knew that Dr. Grace already understood her point and knew the answer to this question, so her asking this again this time was a queue for Ella to get the floor and sell her ideas to try and convince the rest of the board. So, she took it and answered confidently.

"I hope I do, and also, it's not just theories, with the proper set up this is the best security algorithm, unbreakable and infinite and without much..."

"But it's just a theory for now." Professor Hendrick stopped her mid-sentence.

Predictable, she expected him to try and cause trouble, so she turned to him, smiled and answered.

" Well yes and no sir. For now, it's a theory that I know nobody can prove false and ..."

"Is that a challenge Miss Ella?" He cut her back again and challenged her with an obnoxious and prideful look on his face. He was trying to push her buttons. He didn't like her to begin with and to be fair Ella didn't care.

To her, Professor Hendrick was a douche, a bully, and a complexed grumpy ugly man, and she meant that respectfully. But she couldn't let their longtime disagreement compromise her thesis. So, just like she has been doing in the last years of her studies she controlled her mood and made her clapback as respectful and calm as possible, though she was now fuming inside.

"Oh, I wouldn't dare professor, I'm just stating fact sir. As you can see, this is written in a way that for every single attempt to alter or block this shield, it will generate 10x automatic firewall and we have proven that in the practical part of this thesis because that was the subject of our research and we have presented the complete project regarding to that. The theory as you have put it , is a closing question, and a bracket open by us trying to push the limit of our current proven achievement, with proper financial support we could improve and challenge the scientifical boundaries we have reached at this state. That doesn't in any way affect the result or challenge the aim of our current subject. Which I believe has been successfully met." She said it all in one breath, she could see the nodding agreement in the rest of the board and the Dumbfounded expression of Professor Hendrick.

"Wait are you trying to say that you'll be having a 10-time step ahead?" Mr. Hendrick asked. The prideful look on his face, slowly disappearing.

"Somehow sir, what i am saying is we have found a way to tell the computer to multiply and create 10 gradually ascending sequence every single time until it reaches, well ...where it couldn't count anymore." Ella answered, laying it all out clearly once again. Seizing her chance to shine. The final nail to the coffin.

"But it's a computer counting so... oh!...i see ... oh!... Amazing! Beautiful" It was Professor Dongjun turn to say. He was clapping, smiling, realization hitting him mid-sentence.

"Well... This. I mean your thesis is already brilliant as it is, but this...if we can really develop it... it is brilliant, more then everything we can ever sanction you with ... Joan you knew about this? You are her supervisor, right?" Professor Dongjun asked. He was still excited. Programming was his domain. And he started to regret listening to Hendrick and refused to supervise Taya's project.
