Lt. Silveira: Changes aren't always good.

Vitor was frowning. It was the second time he was reading the details he had access to, and it didn't help him to understand the situation. 

Worse, it didn’t help him deal with the emotions crossing his heart and mind. 

He was happy not so long ago. In fact he was smiling at the recent message. 

Tito had written to him, in his usual telegraphic way, to tell him about his transfer to the Thor. The good news was that Taisa, Tito’s girlfriend, was also joining him.

That made Vitor really happy. And glad that his best friend, his “brother” was close to his beloved. Tito and Taisa had been in a long-distance relationship for a while, and they deserved the happiness of being together. 

But as the saying goes, all good things…

He was catching up with some of the bureaucracy work, before sending back a reply when another friend's name came up.

And not Alex, the recent arrival to his department. 

Vitor read again the discharge report, before using his clearance as Chief Tactical Officer to find out the rest of the story. 

And after compiling everything he found, after reading it twice. The same question hammered his mind. 

His emotions were surfacing in waves, but all was still tightly held, like a cork holding the champagne in the bottle, on one question. 

oO Why Sada? Why didn't you ask for help? Oo
