He was glad to see that Doc was exactly how he was expecting him to be. But the look in his eyes, something was quite familiar. He has seen that look somewhere else... That was when he struck him; It's just like the look I had after loosing Andreea. Did he also lose his wife?.
"No, the honor is all mine! Thank you for inviting me here in this little corner of heaven." said Nerva. He was really excited to be on steady ground.
"Alright then, let's go inside. Your journeys must have been tiring, come inside and make yourselves at home.", said Doc.
"One moment, if I may.", said Nerva.
" Did you forget anything on the shuttle?", asked Doc.
" No, not really. Do you remember when we discussed about some medical tech samples?"
" Yes, I do remember. We were talking about recovery beds and a custom operating room."
" If i may, is there a place around here where something the size of the shuttle with which I came can land?"
" Not in this area, but we can go in the back yard. There is a patch of land that might suite your needs."

"Ok, easy now. Easy..." Nerva was guiding their descent onto Doc's property.
" Aaaaaaand, they are down".
"I am sorry if they might have scared you. These are my transport drones.", Nerva poses proud near them.
"For a moment I thought this is not going to end well.", Helen said.
"I am really sorry for making you uncomfortable. But, I must admit, it's one of my pleasures to see how people react to my inventions. " , said Nerva visibly embarrassed by the situation he had caused.
