Do you have you bathing suit? We are going to be gone a two weeks, someone is going to try and force you to swim… probably Kestra… Konral said to his wife while he was in the bathroom, putting away items they would need for this trip. Ever since Konral had suggested this idea to Ghubari, he wasn’t sure they would ever get to go. The truth was he had missed his family, work had been so focused and every mission seemed to have personal daggers directed right at them that now, more than ever, was a time to get away.Vander, CoS
Naturally, she quipped. Especially since I spent so much time in the old Athena’s hot tub, Ghubari added, laughing. It was a carefree sounding laugh and yet there was nothing carefree about Ghubari Koraia. Certainly not recently. They hadn’t talked about it yet, but her and Konral couldn’t hide anything from each other. It was impossible. And yet she had no desire to unpack recent events. Not yet. It was too much.
Moving over to the desk in their quarters, she picked up the baseball that Sisko had given her in that… realm, place. She still expected it to dissolve and just be a figment of her imagination, but it felt solid in her hand. So very strange.

Konral could feel the turmoil from his wife as he walked over as he saw her examining the ball in her hands as he wrapped his arms tightly around her waist as he pulled her tightly into his body. Do you want to talk? he asked her as he kissed her neck as he let her feel the love and warmth he had for her in that moment. You know I am always here… always he added as they all had gone through a crazy ride, but everyone had gone through something different for them.

She tilted her neck, letting her mind absorb the exquisite sensations on he neck. Small things. Small joys. She didn’t want to talk. And yet… denying him felt wrong. Ghubari sighed. I don’t know, Ral. I don’t even know where to begin. Her fingers tightened around the baseball.
