Dr Kozak was watching Kieran and Esperanza silently, not really saying anything until he kind of shut down his computer without warning them whatsoever.

Just then, his daughter came back into the room, with a rather massive smile on her face, goodness knew why, and she looked like she was on Cloud Nine at the moment.

"Hey Dad!" She screamed. "Did I miss anything?"

Dr Kozak shook his head then sighed in absolute stress as he thought about how the hell Diana Valentine might have known he sent Esperanza and Kieran out to get his trophy back.

"Not really," Dr Kozak answered after a while, frowning. "You kinda only missed the fact that Diana Valentine knows what I'm doing, much to my freaking irritation...."

Dr Kozak was tired but he didn't sleep. He couldn't sleep. He was also feeling annoyed, resentful, jealous, kind of hopeless and a bit under the weather but didn't let any of that show either.

"How does she know that?"

"Gosh, Arista, I wish I knew but I don't, of course...." Dr Kozak trailed off, getting a cup of water for himself, dropping it and cursing in Arabic, not picking it up before he sat back down again.

"Wait. I think I know. She's using a CCTV camera on you. Her daughter Cynthia Rose texted me just now."

Dr Kozak screamed.

"Why would she do that? God, she is ticking me off so much right now.."

Dr Kozak switched on his computer and was about to video chat Diana mainly to scream at her but changed his mind halfway, leaving his computer still on though.

"Before I do anything else though," he told his daughter, standing up. "Arista, come with me, I have a present for you..."

Arista was shocked as soon as she had heard that. It was unlike Dr Kozak to give her a present. He didn't even buy her any for her birthday, coming up with the same irritating excuse on August the 12th every year.

Oh. It's your birthday? I'm sorry... I've been busy and I kinda thought it was next month...

At least that was when Dr Kozak still hated her of course. Now he kind of appreciated her as a person and daughter, and he wasn't lying or kidding around when he told her he had a present for her either.

Dr Kozak took his daughter to the very back of the laboratory , bending down and giving her a present he so happened to hide in the tiny wooden cupboard under where his Bunsen Burner was.

The box itself was light pink whist the bow tie used to wrap it was silver with a lot of glitter on it.

"Oh my gosh, Dr Kozak, you wrapped this amazingly!" She told him, where Dr Kozak just turned red and stared into space.

"Except I didn't wrap it," he corrected her, where Arista just kind of dropped the present and looked at Dr Kozak blankly.

"If you didn't wrap it, then who did?"

Dr Kozak sighed as he said his next sentence.

"Maria Grace," he told her.

But Agent Arista was still confused.
