And now for the next seed.
"Mmkay, and...it's open!" she said, hoping he'd be able to properly get that oil extracted. Of course he did, just as LouAnn had suspected he would. The oil was out of the seed and into the potion in the blink of an eye! "Cool...awesome job." Without wasting any time, LouAnn grabbed for a second seed. Just two more drops, and they'd be done with the oil extracting. LouAnn would be glad to have that in the past, as the chance of losing that precious little drop made her a little nervous.
LouAnn carefully peeled back the outer seed coat of the second seed. She just knew that Cope would be able to snag that second drop just as perfectly as he'd snagged the first! "Alright, Cope...ready!" she exclaimed.
