Never Tears




The riots are fewer, but, as Dr.Kane suggests, it does not mean the project is being accepted. Protesters get tired, and Cynthia is showing promise.
It may work. It may truly work.
It is the years of investment in the project that propels her to imagine what will follow Cynthia. A race of Human Canvases, beautiful and blank.
And not unhappy. Unhappiness is not the absence of happiness.
Absence is only absence, if there was something there before it, she reasons.
After all, Cynthia has never cried.
