She turns the scooter to the left and begins to move along the wall. After five minutes of driving, she turns around and retraces her steps, following the tracks of the scooter’s wheels. When she reaches the point from which she reached the mountain wall, she continues to move along the wall. After about three minutes, she discovers the desired bookcase adjacent to the wall. She parks in front of the bookcase, shining the scooter’s lights on it. Lydia gets off and approaches the bookcase. There are only a few hundred cups on each shelf.
She goes to one of the shelves in the lower third of the bookcase and takes several cups from there and puts them in the small trunk in the back, not before she sticks a sticker on the cups she collected and with a pen she writes on the sticker the drawer number in the bookcase. Then something catches her attention. A shiny glass that catches her eye on one of the higher shelves. She tries to pull the glass towards her but she can’t. She tries to pull the cup again; this time she jumps towards it. As she jumps, her suit tears from one corner of the bookcase. She manages to drop the shiny glass to the mountain floor. She stands up in shock, digesting her exposure to the poisons of the mountain. She takes the shiny glass and quickly puts it in the trunk. Just before she gets on the scooter, she searches the small trunk of the scooter for something and pulls out a wide insulating tape.
She gets on the scooter and returns back to the starting point of the mountain. A distance of about an hour and a half. While driving, she tears strips of insulation tape with her teeth and with her free hand sticks them to the torn overall. After sticking a few strips of insulation tape on, she returns to concentrating on the drive toward the mountain’s entrance.
