I walked into the bar after returning from star city with Nyssa, I couldn't wrap my head around what had happened, first my sister, now my father, meeting my sisters doppelgänger didn't help either, to see her brought back all the memories I had tried to forget they were too painful yet they were all back now and I know it wasn't really my sister but she looked just like her.

I fixed my hair and made my way to the bar stand, sitting next to a beautiful woman who looked like she had had the same kind of day I did except I felt like I couldn't cry anymore.

"2 martinis, 3 olives straight not shaken". I felt like drinking strong tonight even though showing up to the wave rider stumbling and slurring my words would let my team know that something had happened and I did not want to talk about my fathers death anymore especially not to my team so I figured stronger the drink the better I'd just avoid the team. The woman beside me seemed to pick up on the fact that I was not trying to have fun and shifted her seat closer to mine.

"Rough day" normally I would snap at people trying to talk to me at a time like this but I found myself wanting to talk to her wanting her company I guess I wanted a listening partner. " very rough day" I replied "you" "yea" I took my drinks from the bartenders hands and turned my seat around to face the woman, "may I ask what happened" "you'd think I'm crazy if I told you" "trust me I wouldn't people think I'm crazy when I tell them about my days too"
