human trials have shown us that liaran is  completely safe Kate stopped paying attention

78240
11600

01:39
already been approved for sale and that they  were not testing to see if there were side

effects she didn't know any of the other people  
10
107600
7640
01:55
in the group she guessed that none of  them had jobs either or they wouldn't  
11
115240
6920
02:02
be earning money by testing medicine  but otherwise it was impossible to
12
122160
7280
02:09
know if she had anything in common with any of  them she hoped so or four days in the research

center could feel like a very long time  as side effects we know that some people
14
142680
7080

experience the stronger emotions and a feeling  of General happiness the head researcher said  
15

16
160880

03:51
dinner she had taken her second liin tablet  before dinner she was feeling really relaxed  
23
231640
12200
04:03
maybe it was the vitamins or maybe it was just  because she had so much free time and there was
24
243840
9400
04:13
nothing she needed to do there were books  to read films to watch and even Bor games  
25
253240
10880
04:24
and puzzles at home she had to send out job  applications or she had to go to stressful job

35
356920
11000
06:07
a pen behind his ear when he was reading she  wasn't sure but she thought he was trying to  
36
367920
8360
06:16
sit next to her for meals and spend time with  her whenever he could or maybe she was the one  
37
376280

evening they were sitting on the sofa watching  a film Michael's knee was almost touching her  
39
397120

06:48
leg and if his hand moved just a little it  could be touching hers her heart beit faster
40
408240
11160
07:01
and all she could think about was being near  enough for his kin to touch hers her face  
41
421960
9000

8720
07:39
them oh I wasn't really listening she said we  still get pet anyway don't we and then he did it  
45

46
471680

Kate couldn't remember ever feeling so happy thank  you everyone for taking part you are now free to
50
511560
9880
08:41

51
521440
11200
08:52
disappear over the next few days if  you have felt any strong feelings and
52
532640
9040
09:01
happiness those feelings will decrease fortunately  we don't expect anyone to become depressed however  
53
541680

55
562360
12360
09:34
talked and talked Kate knew she was in love  it was stupid but it was true Michael said  
56
574720
9080
09:43
it first I can't believe I met you I've never  felt like this about anyone before this does  
57
583800
10280
09:54
feel amazing Kate said but she had been worried  about some something since the beginning of the
58
594080
8120
10:02
trial she hadn't wanted to think about it but  now she had to ask him serious question you  
59
602200
14240
10:16
don't think what what if it's the limine  making us feel like this what was it he  
60
616440
12080
10:28
said about strong feelings there's only  one way to find out he said if you don't  
61
628520
7360
10:35
want to be my girlriend anymore after  a few days we'll know it was just the
62
635880
7760
10:43
liaran she smiled at the word girlfriend  maybe your side effects will go away first  
63
643640
13320
10:56
maybe he laughed but I don't think so  this feels real to me me too she said  
64
656960
11720
11:08
four months later a few months later Kate  was thinking about the beginning of the  
65
668680
5920
11:14
relationship she had to admit nothing  could ever be as perfect as those first
66
674600
10080
11:24
days real life had to start again she got a job  a few days after the trial ended Michael went  
67
684680
13160
11:37
back to the library and his books and research  projects she didn't have to worry about money
68
697840
7880
11:45
anymore but they could no longer spend all day  together they were no longer at that exciting  
69
705720
11280
11:57
stage of Falling in Love love but they saw each  other when they could and they met each other's
70
717000
9560
12:06
parents everyone expected them to get married  when he finally asked her to marry him she  
71
726560
10680
12:17
felt that old excitement again 3 years later  I really don't have time for this Kate shouted
72
737240
11640
12:31
she hated doing the weekly shopping  why couldn't he do it fine I'll go  
73
751040
7720
12:38
then she said closing the door hard  so that it made a loud noise Kate felt
74
758760
9640
12:48
as as if these kinds of arguments were  happening more often as she walked around  
75
768400
9680
12:58
the supermarket Market she thought about  how they'd been before when they were in
76
778080
8880
13:06
love can it ever feel like that again she  wondered walking into the health section  
77
786960
12720
13:19
she recognized a word on a box of medicine liin  the Bon's name reminded her of a special time a  
78
799680
12920
13:32
time when she was really great about Michael  she picked up a box and put it in her basket  
79
812600
8400
13:41
when she got home Michael was already in  bed so she ate dinner alone taking her
80
821000
8240
13:49
lemine with a big glass of water the  next morning she woke up early as as  
81
829240
9720
13:58
usual but instead of jumping straight in  the shower she joined Michael downstairs for
82
838960
9680
14:08
breakfast good morning she said to her surprise  she suddenly wanted to kiss him on the cheek  
83
848640
13000
14:21
so she did and sat down next to him at the  table he was eating in front of a Bab pile of
84
861640
8200
14:29
books looking cute with a pen behind his  ear what are you doing I'm applying for  
85
869840
11640
14:41
money for my next research project he  said oh good luck what's the project
86
881480
9040
14:50
about after breakfast she thought how  nice it had been to to see him talking  
87
890520
9160
14:59
about something he cared about she' forgotten  how cute his dimples were when he smiled she
88
899680
9760
15:09
thought or maybe she hadn't seen him smile much  recently anyway she decided to have breakfast  
89
909440
13040
15:22
with him every day since it had been such a lovely  start to the day it couldn't hard to make a bit
90
922480
9840
15:32
more a bit more effort could it two  years later the baby hadn't stopped  
91
932320
12080
15:44
crying for two hours but now her little  face was peaceful as she slept Kate felt
92
944400
9200
15:53
annoyed where was Michael she went downstairs  and found him filling bottles with milk for  
93
953600
10560
16:04
the baby well done Michael said that  didn't sound easy no she said angrily it
94
964160
10120
16:14
isn't you're doing an amazing job he said okay  so I've washed all the clothes made your lunch  
95
974280
11840
16:26
for later and I'm going to come home early this  afternoon so that you can have some time for
96
986120
7560
16:33
yourself Kate managed to smile and say  thank you he really was being very sweet  
97
993680
11280
16:44
even if she was too tired to feel grateful  as soon as he had left for work she picked  
98
1004960
8400
16:53
up the box of limine by the the time  he came home Kate felt able to smile  
99
1013360
8960
17:02
back when he smiled at her one year later  Kate was putting clouds away while the baby
100
1022320
11880
17:14
slept she picked up one of Michael's favorite  jumpers and held a soft material next to her  
101
1034200
11280
17:25
cheek she missed him and he had only been  out an hour putting it back she noticed
102
1045480
9000
17:34
something something hard under the rest of  the jumpers in the drawer it was boxes and  
103
1054480
12240
17:46
boxes of limine they weren't HS she was shocked  to see these boxes she took liaran every day it  
104
1066720
13560
18:00
was true but Michael she thought of liaran as  an easy way to those feelings she'd always had  
105
1080280
8880
18:09
for Michael and it was working every day  she felt madly in love with her wonderful
106
1089160
7880
18:17
husband everyone said marriage was hard  work but she just didn't have time or  
107
1097040
10600
18:27
energy for the job of marriage as well as her  part-time job and a young baby when she took
108
1107640
9880
18:37
liaran she made more effort to do small things  that made their life together enjoyable if he  
109
1117520
10280
18:47
did something nice for her she said thank you  but most of all she actually felt grateful
110
1127800
10520
19:01
if he wore a new shirt or his hair looked  good she told him he was handsome she asked  
111
1141120
7320
19:08
him about his day and remembered things that were  important to him she seen nothing wrong with doing
112
1148440
9240
19:17
this until now that is now she knew why he  had always been so good at doing those same  
113
1157680
13080
19:30
things for her it was all fake instead of a  smiling at Michael when he got home she was
114
1170760
9040
19:39
angry clearly the liaran only had a limited  ability to make everything perfect because  
115
1179800
10120
19:49
nothing felt perfect right now what are  all these she asked he pointed it to the
116
1189920
9040
19:58
Larin the larine packets she taken from  the drawer and put on the kitchen table  
117
1198960
11960
20:10
Michael moved closer and tried to read the small  writing on the boxes they are vitamins aren't
118
1210920
9800
20:20
they don't act as you've got no idea  why I'm asking in said Kate even more  
119
1220720
10480
20:31
Angry these boxes she said picking one of  the packets up are our relationship oh he  
120
1231200

8720
21:00

123
1260520
16640
21:17
don't know it's better to get vitamins  from fruit and vegetables isn't it he
124
1277160
6240
21:23
said the research company sent us boxes and  boxes of them years ago but I put them away  
125
1283400
10360
21:33
somewhere and forgot to throw them away we  eat a healthy enough diet so there is no need
126
1293760
9840
21:43
to to take vitamins what about she felt  her voice getting louder and louder but  
127
1303600
11000
21:54
also something made her feel less sure about  the words she planned to say her idea sounded
128
1314600
8760
22:03

130
1336040

131
1345760
9680
22:35
of the medicine weren't we also he added turning  the box over in his hands they must have changed
132
1355440
10320
22:45
the the ingredients or something because  it doesn't say anything on the Box about  
133
1365760
9800
22:55
side effects see he held it out for her to look  maybe they changed the recipe after we did that
134

trial he gave her a big hug this perfect husband  is all natural don't worry he went upstairs to  
135
1386960

136
1399720
8160
23:31
she looked carefully at the boxes and it was  true there was nothing on the Box about side  
137
1411400
