OOC: just a little goodbye from Cara.

((Ens. Maria's quarters, DS17))

::Cara picked up her bag and slung the long strap around her shoulder as her head snapped to the terminal, The idea of her grandmother flashing through her mind before she saw the starfleet notice.::

Ensign Cara Maria: Science.

::The betazoid counsellor... no, science officer, nodded and looked around her quarters, humming an old song that she thought fit and opened her mouth to sing the lyrics thrumming quietly around her mind, hand resting on the wall of her quarters as if it were a patient.::

Maria: Take a look in my face, for the last time.
I never knew you., you never knew me.
Say hello, goodbye...

Say hello, goodbye...

::Cara fought to sing the rest of the song, then decided to let the song lie and it died away. She paused there for a moment longer, finally taking her hand from the wall and crossing silently to the door.::



::The door to the quarters slid smoothly shut, the soft thump of it connecting with the wall the final sound before the room settled back once more into silence.::
