Chapter 48: Like Brother, Like Sister

The first place we went to was the Engineering building, specifically the Mechanical Engineering department.

Nicole took the lead, showing Chloe around the building and pointing out a few of the facilities along the way. I already knew most of what she was telling her, so I let them have their moment while Chloe looked around with the kind of interest I usually saw on her face when she found something she wanted to buy.

"Wooow. So cool," she said, stopping in front of a display showing a cutaway model of an engine.

I glanced at her. "You sound like you've never seen an engine before."

"Of course I've seen engines before. Just not one displayed like this." She leaned closer to the glass, examining the model as if it might answer questions she hadn't even asked yet.

Nicole watched her for a moment before smiling. "I didn't think you'd also be studying Mechanical Engineering."

"I want to be a mechanical engineer like Nathan," Chloe said casually.
