There was no hiding the pout that overcame her at the pending departures. Linette stood, albeit a bit shakily, and waved at the two Miqo'tes.
"I hope we see each other again soon."
Her attention turned back to Jeris. She smiled but shook her head.
"I will be fine thank you." She took a tentative step away from the table, and the world tilted beneath her. Linette frowned as she steadied herself. "Actually, maybe I'll take you up on that after all. I, uh, appreciate it."
A dull throb was beginning to drum in her temples. I have a sinking feeling, that I am going to regret all these drinks. She found herself thinking. But it was too late now. As her father would have said, 'you made this bed, you lay in it.'
With a defeated sigh, Linette let Jeris walk her out of the Canopy and towards her home.
