"You are excused. I will call you back in after I've had a chat with her." the man said. His voice was soft. His voice sounded more kind than his appearance did. I was confused. One question I had made me wonder. Why did he excuse the guards? Once the guards had left, he turned his gaze to me. He took a few paces towards me and took a knee so he was looking up at me.
"Have you been able to talk to McLoughlin yet?" he asked. At this point I was very confused. Extremely confused. I could only ask myself was is he really trying to help me? I slowly nodded my head in response. I was a bit afraid that the man would hurt the young Lieutenant who was trying to help. On the other hand, I had a feeling that he was trying to help me as well. I couldn't imagine what would happen if he wasn't.
"Good. I was hoping you did. I wanted to make sure he was actually helping." he said in a softer quiet tone. All I could think of was that there really was people trying to help. I didn't know what it was, but I felt like I could trust this man. Even if I did just meet him at the time.
"What's your name?" I finally managed to ask. He looked at me with an amused smile. Though, his expression stayed kind. Something told me he wasn't going to tell me.
