an unauthorized vessel requesting permission to land. He is insisting that you authorized him, but I can’t find any record of that. Can you confirm?”

He pretended he hadn’t spent several nights with just her on his mind. He pretended that he hadn’t been looking forward to this moment for six months. And most of all, he pretended not to hold himself back when he saw a very frail, kind of lanky figure walking his way on the landing pad.

“Yeah?”

“Yeah.”
