There will be no repercussions if you do.&rdquo;</p>
<p>She nodded her assent.</p> <p>The doctor stood and leaned forward, offering her hand. Sylvie lifted herself out of her chair and accepted the handshake, marveling at such an antiquated gesture, feeling the need, however real or not, to be careful of those delicate fingers. The grip was firm.</p>

<p>After the upload, Grace had communicated with Sylvie through text, through mails sent to her terminal which she&rsquo;d pore over at work.
