“Darn, I’ll have to tell the line up at my quarters to get lost,” she bantered back with ease before the words fully registered. Then they did and Cori frowned.

Sinclair caught the frown, but remained silent for a bit. He then said “So. Dealing with addiction is a long process. It’s a hard thing to overcome, and it requires a lot of personal investment on your part. So before we begin, I want to ask you a question. And I want you to think very hard about this before you answer, ok?”

She gazed at him, raising her eyebrows slightly, but assent appeared in her eyes.

“Do you want to address this, and are you willing to put in the time and work necessary to help yourself through this period of your life?”

Corinne laughed slightly. “Well, it’s not like I have a bunch of other pressing matters to attend to. And since my life feels pretty miserable lately, it’s definitely in my best interest to do something about it.” She didn’t need to think about it all that hard. Of course she would. It was a glimmer of hope that something might happen in her life to help her make sense of it all.
