The waiting time
It had been several hours since she had returned from the Concord and her last session with Dr. Hanover. The Avalon had jumped away for the salvage mission during her therapy session, so there was not a lot to do but wait for its safe return. At the most it might only take no less than 48 hours for the entire operation to get enough materials to fill the freighters and return to the fleet.

Inside one of the larger cafeterias inside the Shangri-la, Jilleen sat at a table meant for two by herself. She read from a novel as she slowly ate from her salad bowl. She could have ate back at the Sertorius suite, but the Prime Minister had recently gave an address, and she really wasn’t in a mood to talk about fleet politics.

"Don't I know it!" Dani chuckled as she rolled forward in line. "They'll probably eat up every bit of mine and Rhys's time for the next twenty years, but I'm looking forward to it."

She nodded in agreement at the other woman's offer of help. "That would be nice, thank you." Dani handed the tray over to Jilleen and moved forward.

"How have you been doing? I meant to reply to your letter but time slipped away."

	“I’ve been trying to keep myself occupied,” she slid the plastic tray along the metal guide. “This leave has been good for me.” She was not sure if Daniella knew that she had been forced to see a counselor. There was no telling what she heard. “House salad or Caesar salad?” asked Jilleen at the salad bar. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Jilleen grabbed the house salad with the fixings already set aside in packages to be added in at the person preference. The cafeteria was mostly self service and even though the Agriculture project has provide much for the fleet, there were still limitations. Jilleen added the fruit of the day to the tray as well.

“Going a bit mad,” she replied and then continued to fill DanI’s tray with what she requested before moving back to her table with her.

Sitting across from Daniella, she lean in. “You must have heard a few rumors why I been sent away from Avalon?” She looked quickly around to make sure there were no one around to ease drop and then return her attention to the pregnant woman.

“Its not all about what happened between me and your friend last week. No, that was only a symptom. I’m seeing a psychotherapist on Concord. I might as will tell you, secrets are hard to keep for long in this fleet.” Her lips formed a brief thin smile. “The admiral thought it would best I seek immediate therapy before I lost my way completely. She forced this leave I suppose, for me to think very hard about the things I've discovered about myself in my sessions so far.”

After she was finished with her last sentence. A chime sounded and repeated again over the intercom that was heard through out the resort liner, then followed by an announcement.

“Attention, Attention, all crew members report to emergency stations. Cylon attack in progress. Prepare for emergency FTL Jump…Attention all passengers , Cylon attack in progress, we ask all those in exposed areas of the ship, such as the bio-domes, please make your way quickly to the nearest exit to a protective area. ” The voice of the ship’s officer was calm but stern. They had repeated this scenario hundreds of times in the last three years, though it had been a few weeks since the last attack the seriousness of the situation was not forgotten. Especially now with only less than half of the strike group there to protect the fleet.
