288 Let me go home (2/2)

A few hours later Keitaeo woke up with a jolt as he thought, 'Maybe I should get rid of my beard.'

A few more minutes later he was sitting in front of his computer as he went through the result as his eyes widen as he stumbled up from his seat he quickly used his radio as he spoke, ”Tell Lead Scientist Dr. Malcolm to be at my office as fast as possible, it is an emergency.”

He did not have to wait longer as Malcolm was standing beside him in his own hazmat suit as he spoke, ”What has happened Keitaro, you spoke of an emergency.”

Keitaro simply nodded at that as he spoke, ”See the results for yourselves.”

Malcolm raised one of his eyebrows as he went through the result and a few minutes later he found himself hugging and laughing like a mad man as Keitaro returned the gesture, Malcolm spoke with his voice filled with happiness, ”Brother, let us start field testing and if it really works we will be get rid of the pandemic once and for all.”

Keitaro nodded as he spoke, ”Yes finally we will be able to honor the sacrifices made by so many and put the deceased to rest in peace.”

Malcolm nodded at that solemnly, as Keitaro gave him a sad glance, 'I fill sorry as well as honored to know Malcolm, he had lost everyone that was precious to him yet he trudged forward so that others do not have to feel the same sense of loss.'

Malcolm: ”Well there is no sense for dillydallying then we should start the experiments then, the simulation you have shown me has shown the biggest promise till date.”

A few days later Keitaro was anxious, he had just gotten news that his wife Beatrix has gone into labor, but he was stuck in a stupid press conference which he wanted no part off he simply wanted to rush back to his wife side but alas the fate was not smiling at him.

He took the microphone as he watched the journalist looking at them with bored eyes after all most if not all the conferences nowadays were only to share the bad news.

Keitaro cleared his throat as he spoke with a smile, ”Ladies and Gentleman a warm welcome to all of you, I know that you all are extremely busy as such without further ado, let me announce it to you that we finally have a 'CURE'.”

No sooner did he speak the word the journalist had looked as if they were jolted awake as the room was flooded into excited cacophony as questions were fired at rapid succession causing Keitaro's smile to twitch at that, 'What the hell do you want from me, I have already announced it, so let me go home and welcome my children I do not have time for the likes of you.'
