Apologised Katrina.

"Actually, I'm taking her to mine," Katrina told him. "It's closer
and I think I should keep an eye on her tonight." She pointed down
the hall. "This way."
The two dragged DJ down the hall. She was really out this time; her
feet skidding behind her, her head still on Zodar's shoulder
Katrina and Chris finally got D'Arcy-Jada in Katrina's room and
tucked safely in the spare bunk. PITA was very curious of the new
girl and crawled into bed with her, nuzzling the sleeping girl's hair.
"Well, I guess I should be going now," Chris announced.
Katrina gave him a quick hug. "Thank you very much. I really
appreciate it, Chris." She looked at him for a second. "Would you
come back tomorrow and visit her?"
"Why?"
Katrina shrugged. "She's a bit lonely and I promised to meet the
Captain for breakfast tomorrow. I'm sure she'd appreciate the
company."
<how bout it, Chris?>
