A matter of time before their date was cut short. Torri briefly glanced down. He could have at least tried to sound dismayed at the prosepct. She was probably just being sensitive for no reason. A date hadn't gone well for a while.
They paused their conversation long enough to place orders. Drayson kept his word and requested the expensive steak. Torri went with the duck breast and greens.
She liked that Drayson wasn't in the military. He was pleasant and polite, and they related to one another. She was certainly comfortable around him, but she wondered whether he felt a spark. She wasn't sure if she felt one herself. Still, the company was fine.
She thought for a moment, adding up the days since moving here. "You'd likely not have found me. I don't work at a civilian hospital, but am stationed at the Kremlin itself. I was in the middle of a Med. Genetics residency in Berlin when I was pulled here only a handful of days before the unrest in DV. But I do work with Francis from time to time. He runs laboratory samples for me."
Thankfully, their wine was delivered promptly. Things would ease up after a glass, although technically she had to keep her wits sharp in case of a summons from EoA.
