Kchoo
At Peace.
I made breakfast, and upon finishing that, dirty dishes still in front of me on the table, I closed my eyes...
Shai?
"Yeah... what is going on?".
"Yeah... he poked my life prety hard a time or two... I figured it was either him. or my ancestors haunting me... , or just my own subconcious messing with me... but up to now, I haven't talked about it... I guess I have learned to just expect the unexpected by now..."
"You know I will... she just caught me off gaurd and I still dont know what to think sometimes... "
"Yeah, just waiting for the dust to settle really helps to clear the air... until Semjase stirs it up..."
"That was a good metaphore... that time on the rock... did you program SIM to show that?"
"Yes it is... and I get your point... I will listen to Semjase..,"
Shai?
"Hi Ken, I though I might hear from you... "
"Yeah... what is going on?".
"Not much. High Council has reviewed you once again. RI Li is convinced, as Charlie was, that you are definately stronger than most people. They think your stories have merit. He is impressed how you balance the two lives, basically integrating Kchoo in your own way through your 'fictional' stories. And the way you are... the way you handle daily things... Ri Li has been testing you... and you just ignored most of the tests, or played along without getting flustered."
"Yeah... he poked my life prety hard a time or two... I figured it was either him. or my ancestors haunting me... , or just my own subconcious messing with me... but up to now, I haven't talked about it... I guess I have learned to just expect the unexpected by now..."
"Semjase isnt hiding anything anymore... she is serious about full disclosure to high council... Give her a chance!"
"You know I will... she just caught me off gaurd and I still dont know what to think sometimes... "
"Yes, but you handle it well... I know how you are... you are patient, and you have learned to wait and let the truth reveal itself..."
"Yeah, just waiting for the dust to settle really helps to clear the air... until Semjase stirs it up..."
"Haha.. Yes... dust devils of the mind are troublesome for all of us..."
"That was a good metaphore... that time on the rock... did you program SIM to show that?"
"No... that was just part of the scene... you made the analogy between dust devil and confusion... I never made that connection until then, but is a handy metaphore..."
"Yes it is... and I get your point... I will listen to Semjase..,"
"I know... I am just killing time with you right now so you can figure that out... You are welcome to contact me, Ken... but Semjase is really who you should be working with right now..."
"Yeah... but maybe I like talking to you too... you are more comfortable..."
"Yes... no history between us to muddle things, huh? Funny thing about history... it is a mix of emotions, and seems to get more confusing the longer we know someone... if you try too hard to understand everything, you lose the sweetness of just being together... and that is not just 'professional ' advice!"
"Thanks Shai.. you always sneak one in there don't you?"
"It's what I do best."
I opened my eyes... "Well, these dishes wont clean themselves... "
Shai- "Another good metaphor, Ken"
