Avoidance

Jean-Luc Picard peered around the corner of one of the Enterprise’s corridors. A science officer jumped back in shock, but walked on, and passed the captain with a curious face. The coast was clear and a relieved feeling rushed through him when his quarter’s doors came into sight. However, footsteps caught his attention and he turned in surprise as Lieutenant Worf walked up with a serious face.

“I apologize if I interrupted you, Captain. Mrs. Troi has been trying to gain forcible entry into your quarters the entire afternoon. Her attempts were unsuccessful.”

“Quite all right, Mr. Worf. Thank you.”
