Posted by Lieutenant Miriam Cross (Chief Medical Officer) in Side sim -Cross’s quarters lost in her thoughts while awaiting Joe.
Cross was sitting with her legs crossed on the bed staring at an imaginable dot ,she was thinking and wondering on how to approach the subject with Joe with regards to the baby . Sure it was still early weeks but if all goes well and the child is born Cross knew that they would not be allowed to keep the baby on the ship....it was against the Federation’s policy and established rule.

She waited for him to return from the bar and hopefully could discuss their plan.

Upon Joe’s return he walked in carrying a bowl of something warm and pleasant smelling and sat it down on the table next to Miriam’s bed. Before she could ask, he smiled and said, ” Lentil vegetable soup. It makes you healthier than you should be.” Then he opened his other hand and opened it setting a small statue of two frolicking little angels. ” And Joe continued, no mom and kid can go without a guardian angel or two.”

She eyed the soup and then the angels ‘’But ..but I’m not hung....’’ Cross stopped in mid sentence and decided to eat the soup ,after all Joe had gone out of his way to care for her and she did not want to disappoint him ‘’The angels are cute thanks ‘’.
Her quarters were completely void of any miscellaneous items, personal novelties ,decorations,ornaments or photos but she thought the statue looked nice by her bed side table.

Joe then leaned in and kissed Miri on her forehead and frowned before he asked her.” You look as though you’ve been pondering a bit too much what is it?”

At times she thought Joe could read her mind ‘’Well now that you have mentioned it I was actually thinking about your family ,would they accept to take care of our child’’ and since she had never met them was also curious and needed to know what kind of persons they where .
