Reia was a morning person by nature but she didn’t have a real fondness for counselors so, she thought aobut going back to bed when she saw the appointment with Dekker on her calendar.

It was an unavoidable part of boarding a ship but, with everything relating to her mother, Reia had serious trust issues. So she stood outside the door calming herself before ringing the chime and waiting.
