"I have a brother," she answered, "but as to where he is I don't know. He was captured by the Kusari Navy and interned as a prisoner of war." She then sighed, "I only pray that he is safe."
"My father passed a few years ago of emphysema," she explained, "he couldn't put away the cigarettes and they finally did him in. My mother now lives alone on New London. I don't see her often but she's doing well for an old lady!" She snickered when she said, "Old lady."
Emily lowered her head. "When I was younger, my family was perfect, my mother and farther worked together in engineering, until my mother got a job working for the Kusari Naval Forces as a crewman on-board a Kusari Explorer. My sister went with my mother, and I stayed with my dad" she said softly. "From there, the family broke up, my sister Amy blamed me for everything, mom and dad breaking up, her for not getting into a Kusari University." Emily took a long inhale. "I guess you could we became worst enemies, though we we're sisters."
Emily looked up and looked deep into Connie's eyes, remembering the face she saw in the window.
"I hope my mother is well, I haven't heard of her since she left Trenton Outpost." Emily rubbed the back of her neck in worry.

"Emily, my brother and I went though a time much like that," she explained, "we were just, well, different. But, we worked through it."
She then realized that Emily needed her mother, "Listen, if I can help find your mother, I would be glad to help. I know people. Maybe they've seen her. People are quite tightely woven out there you know."
Emily smiles gracefully smiled slightly, and shook her head gently.
"No, I've learnt to live without her, as much as it is strange to say. My Mother is just a memory now, I remember her a good person, seeing her.." Emily lowers her head. "I'm scared she's changed.. I want to remember my mother like she was, a good person."
Emily looked back up to her new friend.
"Thanks for the offer.."

Connie gently and slowly pulled away, getting back to her feet.
"Listen, I need to get back to station," she explained, "is there anything else I can do for you? I can send for Doctor Holliday.
Emily shook her head gently.
"No, thank you. I'd profer to be left alone for now" She smiled slightly, before gently resting her head on the pillow and ex-hailing.
