Maybe if needed we could take it apart so we can use the discs to reflect the light.” The more that the male in the other cell came up with idea and spoke the more she liked his way of thinking.

She wouldn’t blame them if no one did. While waiting to hear what the others had to say she started to draw in the dirt again.
