Jez couldn’t help but smile as Mike was doing his best to charm Cindy, but when Cindy more or less shot him down, his ego deflated like an old balloon. To the casual observer, Mike was flirting while only a month into his grieving process. Jez couldn’t help but think that it was true that people grieve in their own way. Mike flirts, and Jez teases. Jez couldn’t help but feel relieved that Mike was flirting, considering that he could have gone on a drinking binge or something equally as destructive.
Geez, does he realize he’s making a fool out of himself?
Jez smiled and whispered to Mike, “You’re old enough to be her grandfather.”

Mike smiled when Cindy suggested that he was a smart guy and struck her as a fast learner. Mike blushed, “Well, I do pick up things rather quickly.” Said Mike.
Mike found Cindy captivating, he never found artificial life forms odd or frightening, unlike so many, especially after the events on Mars, in 2485 when synthetic life forms, the A500 synths attacked Mars destroying the Utopia Planitia Ship Yards, Mike was more open minded, he never blamed artificial life forms, he knew that the artificial life forms were learning, growing, he remembered reading about the attacks days after it happened, he had always suspected that the Romulans had been involved along.
At hearing, Jez suggesting that he was old, Mike felt a bit defensive, “I am not old,” Quipped Mike.
When Cindy asked about his martial arts prowess, Mike’s ego balloon started to inflate, “Yes, I’ve used my training in Kendo, Muay Thai, and Krav Maga to try and teach Mrs. Funny Pants here a few things.” Replied Mike. “Come on, I’m sure Cindy has a lot of work to attend to, besides, we have to talk. “ Said Jez as she playfully patted Mike’s paunch.
“Arggghh…Grow up..” Quipped Mike. Mike quickly ignored Jez and turned his attention back to Cindy. Said, "We're going to set you up with some Holodeck time and come calibration exercises to ensure that you're in as good a shape as you can deliver. After that, it is all up to you."
“I would like that.” Said Mike. "Cindy, out of curiosity, do you have a combat sub routine?” He added.

Jez was feeling a bit restless, all this talk of Death. Pregnancy and revenge were becoming a lot to process. Yes, a million questions were coursing through her mind: Who would do something like this, and why? Not to mention the whole custody battle. What could someone possibly gain by doing this? Were her parents involved in something questionable? What she needed was to channel her physical rage into a productive workout, relieve her stress, and feel normal again, even if only for a brief time.
Jez perked up a little at the mention of Holodeck training. “Hey Teddy Bear, I have five strips of Gold-pressed latinum that says I can take you in one round.” Taunted Jez. Jez knew that would get Mike going.
“Chuckling, “ Ohhhh, you’re on Miss Funny Pants!!" replied Mike. “Cindy, you want to come watch me fold him like a piece of paper?” Asked Jez, with a smirk on her face.
I really need to talk with Lieutenant Tate. Thought Jez. Tate was more than just a Counselor; she was a friend, and Jez knew that a workout would help, but talking to Tate would help just as much, if not more.
“If you'll excuse me, I have to take care of something.” Announced Jez, her voice distant. Jez tapped her commbadge, “ Mala to Tate, can you meet me in my quarters?” Jez then turned to Mike, come with me, please.” Stated Jez.
