Eli Zhu the engineer and the rest of the engineering staff had just completed the timely repair on Aegis. Confidently adding "All stations are working at peak efficency all repairs teams are on maintaince duties" at the end of his report to the CT and Chief Demore. Now he was enjoying himself, to an extent, to catch up on eating and sipping tea while reading family history and updates from earth and various vessels that his academy friends had been stationed.

 

Thats what he loved about being on station, abeit he had a few who he considered friends however he never really knew them, it was stationary the others, friends, relatives, and brothers could contact him and he wouldn't be any where other in this particular system. Otherwise on a starship it would be cruising around the galaxy and sometimes definitely out of range for relatives to contact him.

 

He adjusted his seating and sipped his green tea, the surroundings were peaceful, everyone conversed among themselves, the usual brushes and unexpected trips and apologies that came with it. Eli slumped in to his chair and relaxed, the stress fled from him as if he was contagious of some disease but the only one he had now was relaxiation. He had free time right now, the station patching up nicely and everything surveyed, the York Town will cruise back with the Cardassian Freighter soon, he had the time to relax.

 

The waiter's arrival broke his thoughts as he brought a plate of food to his table, Eli nodded and tipped the waiter with whatever he had left in his pockets and dug into his refreshment. He found the taste of the veggitables a little blend, he looked to the table beside him.

 

"Could you please the salt?" The officer nodded and handed Eli the salt shaker, he nodded back himself and continued his eating. Time passed slowly as he ate.
