"I need you all to step out of the room except Elio," Dr. Andrew ordered, his voice firm. He wanted to conduct the test once again but not in front of the others.
None of them said anything more. They just got up and left the room while Elio made his way towards Greg.
"Did you notice the subtle change in brother Brave's heartbeat, Dr. Andrew?" Elio said standing beside his mentor.
"Yes, his heart rate was slightly up when the video was playing but there was little to no movement from his body. This time I will play it again, you check his movements and I will check his vitals on the monitor," Dr. Andrew instructed.
"Got it, sir," Elio nodded.
They played the video again and just like before, his normal heart rate fluctuated at the sweet sound of Myra's laughter. But there was not even a single movement from his limp body whatsoever. The video completed and Elio looked at Greg and shook his head in dejection, "His body didn't respond at all."
