     "Wait, now," Suzi says, grabbing his arm. She pauses for a moment to look at his face, a shear sense of togetherness comes over her, undeniable. Remaining for a moment, feeling his presence, she lets go.

     "She likes you," Carter says with a genuine sense of surprise. Did he consider she was programmed in practical skills, an operator, coded for production developer? No, he most likely didn't. Does he know she is also coded as a business analyst engineer? He probably doesn't care.

      "Did you get copies of her data to the appropriate parties?" Carter says.

     "Yes, I hope so. Thanks for the back-up."

     "Well, only she knows the measures needed to ensure the true confidentiality of her data," he says smiling, distrusting.
