She exited her quarters. She remembered hearing about the Promenade and
decided that it would be a good way to get to know some people on the
station. Considering the time of day, it should be bustling.
It did not take long for her turbolift to arrive. She stepped off and was
amazed at the scenery. The place was packed with people from any number of
species. There were stores and restaurants and theaters and all sorts of
entertainment available.
She took a few steps out, and was bumped into by a stranger. He was a tall
man, in his thirties. Brown hair, green eyes, and an embarassed look made
up his face.
"Oh, I am terribly sorry Miss. I did not see you standing there. Guess it
would have helped if I was not reading while I was walking. I am
Commander Sam Roeder, and I am very sorry for bumping into you, miss....."
apologized the man dressed in civie clothing.
Jafira turned to the friendly voice and was immediately caught in the young
officer's friendly eyes. She felt herself blush as she realized that she
was staring while he spoke. "Ummm ... Miss Dais. I mean Jafira Dais."
