"Oh, okay," Melody replied.

Nyla looked away, her expression calm. "Let's go."

Even after they left the venue, Melody remained visibly excited. "Nyla, thank you so much for today! After listening to the conference, I'm even more determined to pursue a career in drug research."

Seeing Melody's flushed cheeks and bright, sparkling eyes, Nyla couldn't help but smile. "What made you suddenly think of this?"

Previously, when their experiments kept failing, Melody had been noticeably down for a few days, feeling frustrated. Nyla had feared she might give up, but Melody persisted and now seemed even more committed to this path.

"I heard Caroline say that their experiments failed over a thousand times, but they still kept going. I think that's amazing. I want to be like them-standing up there someday, sharing my experiences," Melody gushed.

She looked a little embarrassed at this point. "I've never really stuck with anything before. Now I want to commit to drug research."

Nyla nodded. "As long as you've thought it through."

"Nyla, let me treat you to lunch later as a thank-you for bringing me to the conference," Melody offered.

"No need. I have another appointment," Nyla declined.

"Okay, then," Melody conceded.
