3 - Eleanor
The electrodes went deep inside Eleanor’s skin, causing her pain. Only after a while did she get used to them and the discomfort turned into a minor itching. Many times the blonde doctor approached the tank, took notes on a tablet, and left. She never looked down at her—Eleanor might just as well not even have been there. In a way, that lifted her spirits because at least they hadn’t abandoned her. Still, the woman’s behaviour hurt her feelings.
‘If only I knew how long I’ve been here!’
But she couldn’t count the minutes between her naps. She had no idea for how long she remained inside the tank until, one day, the doctor released her from the restraints by pushing some buttons on the glass container.
