Victor ceased reading, taking note of the new arrival. A Lieutenant Commander, Fire, if he remembered the name correctly. For a time nothing was to be done, the Commander had given no indication that he was looking for company. However, the Phone call that had just happened sounded......Odd.
It wasn't his place to pry on a senior officers personal life. Still, Perhaps the commander could offer some insight to the war, as much as he wanted to forget it, he also wanted it over. Who better to ask than his superiors?
Getting up he made his way past the Lieutenant Commander, intending to get a fresh cup of coffee, but upon passing he noticed that the CO's cup was empty, taking his chances he asked: ''Would you like another, sir?''
