However, Philip is not as easily dismissive of her actions. He glares at Bernadette with a worrisome furrowed brow.

With her eyes still fixed on the laptop in front of her, Bernadette is now standing up excitedly. Her tipped over chair lays on the floor behind her, near a fresh new dent in the wall. Although she does not notice, Yusuf finally reacts – swiveling his neck just enough to peer through the glass

Kartinhaus tilts his head in the direction of Yusuf, still standing silently beyond the glass.
