When fate plays its hand

“You have a good memory. I remember there’s a book in this series that specifically. talks about genetic testing. How come I can’t find it anymore?”

Miranda didn’t have photographic memory, but she tended to remember key points.

She remembered going through this book in the library a couple days ago. Turning to the bookshelves, she quickly swept her gaze over them. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. “Dr. Young, are you talking about this book?”

Christine peered at the cover. “That’s right, it’s this one! You sure have a keen eye. I’ve been searching for hours, but it was right under my nose this entire time!

“Solomon, come here. This book, combined with your thesis reference materials, should. be enough for you as a reference. Take this first. I’ll continue looking for other books. you could use.”

“Thank you, Dr. Young.” Solomon reached for the book.

Recently, he’d been preparing for his master’s thesis. Some reference materials weren’t complete enough, and he’d heard that Christine had the original source text, so he’d dropped by early in the morning to see her.

Only then did Christine think of introducing the two to each other. “Mimi is my student, but she’s soon going to be my student again.”

Solomon was shocked. It took him a moment to return to his senses. “Is she going to be taking the postgraduate admission exams to study under you?”

Christine laughed and said to Miranda, “This is Solomon Hall. He’s in his second year of his Master’s degree and is preparing for his PhD. He’s also been studying recently. Your two could be study buddies.”

Miranda nodded slightly. “It’s nice to meet you, Solomon. I’m Miranda Sutton.”

Solomon realized that she was one of Christine’s students. He then took his phone out and exchanged numbers with Miranda.

“This is great. We can meet up at the library together. If we have any questions about bioinformatics, we could discuss it with each other.”

After exchanging a couple of words, Solomon left as he still had class.

Miranda thought of the croissants on the table. She went to the kitchen and grabbed a plate to serve them.

Christine broke into a smile when she saw them. “I haven’t had these in a long time. Did you go out of your way to buy these?”
