Saturday / 3:30 PM / R.I.I.C
It was a quiet day for Rhode Island. Most of the Operators were taking a day off in R.I.I.C under the order of Kal'tsit. Only few were sended to do a mission. Most of them are about patrolling the area and searching for every reunion member that tried to sneak in on Rhode Island city.
Some took their day off by resting in their own perspective dorms, and some took a chance to go out and have a stroll. But there is someone who keep working everyday aside from Kal'tsit in Rhode Island.
"Oh god.. why do I always have to do the desk job when I'm in here?" A masked man slam his head in the table from exhaustion of his work. "Amiya.. please let me take a rest just for 1 hour.." the man became weary from his desk job that he forced to do after he came back from his amnesia.
The bunny girl saw the man begging to her as he became more insist to have a rest in the past few days on his work hours. Amiya saw the clock and sighed from hearing the lousy man
"Alright Doctor. I will let you rest..." her words make the man rise up "..You serious?" he need to make sure he heard it right "..Only if you promised to finish this pile right after you wake up." Amiya rest her hand above the thick pile of documents, files, and recruitment that mixed in to be one big stack on his desk.
"Deal." he nod as he lock his promise. "Very well, I will go to my dorm then Doctor." Amiya took a step forward toward the door and have a one last look before leaving "Have a good rest Doctor." she left her words and leave the office.
The Doctor walk toward his blue sofa right across his desk, "Finally... I can get some good rest.." he walk slowly before dropping his upper body first in the comfy sofa. "Ahh.." he start to crawl and put his whole body in the sofa while positioning himself upside before opening his mask and feel the air hitting his skin face, "Now this is nice.." the man put the mask in the glass table before closing his eyes.
The Doctor start to doze off peacefully after then and sleep for almost an hour after the never-ending paperwork he got whenever he is not in the battlefield.

Kal'tsit are walking in the hallway heading toward the Doctor office. She is holding a coffee cup while planning to give it for Doctor after she bought it from the nearest cafe. The white-haired lynx knew that the man only sleep 7 hours a day at most. Which is far below the recommendation for health sleep.
But Kal'tsit knew that he have to finish his job quickly today because he is going to need some huge rest before getting deployed tomorrow morning. So she decide to support him by giving him some energized caffeine drink.
She arrived right in front of his office door. She start to knock few times and waiting for an answer, but nothing came. "Doctor?" she slowly pull the knob down and saw a glimpse of his desk from the opening. The door in his office was pretty old but the Doctor doesn't want an upgrade to sliding steel door because he is an old fashioned.
Kal'tsit saw no presence of the Doctor in his desk, she push the door more until she spot the Doctor body resting in the blue sofa. 'There you are' she goes in slowly to avoid creating a sound that disturb his nap.
She approach him and saw his unmasked face sleeping peacefully. Kal'tsit turn her gaze to the desk where a thick stack of papers and documents can be seen very clearly, 'You must be really tired' she pity the man life after he waken up from his cryoptic pod few months ago.
Kal'tsit put the coffee above his desk office and planning to leave him alone, but then her steps was hold as she looks back to the man sleeping face. Her mind was hesitant to approach the Doctor but her body just moved on itself without a hinch.
Kal'tsit put her hand gently into the man hands where it was resting on his upper body. "I shouldn't pushed you this hard.." remembering her action toward the sleeping doctor where she giving him many task while sending him to many operation on the span of a month compared to any other operator in Rhode Island.
"Forgive me" she said while knowing the fact that half of the reason was for her personal feeling. Her reason is not only because she knew how capable he is in his field, but because she couldn't handle the fact that the man she once knew very well compare to any other operator is now acting different and have different personality compared to previously.
It was immature act coming from her that forcing the man working tirelessly without giving much enough rest for his own health. "I'm a fool am I?" her hand feel his lung expanding slowly and then decreasing as he exhale his breath.
The Rhode Island Leader is now inside her own thought while she staring the man face clearly. Her heart rate increased rapidly while she start to think what she can do to him while the Doctor is sleeping. 'It will be alright..' she said it in her thought while thinking of an action that wouldn't made the Doctor woken up
Kal'tsit focused the gaze toward the Doctor lip that is locked tightly. 'It's fine.. right?' she knew it was out of character for her. but hey, the person right in front of her is the love she once had after all. And just because she start to act serious and cold almost 24/7 doesn't mean she doesn't have a maiden feeling anymore.
Kal'tsit exhaled her breath from her mouth slowly as she start to gently lean her head toward the man face, getting closer each second passed as her heartbeat getting three times as rapid than normal, their face was only few centimeters away until she can feel his breath hitting her face. The woman knew she can't turn back now and decide to push all of her might into leaning closer until they connected witch each other... by lips.
*knock* *knock* A soft knock can be heard and the door opened gently. It was Amiya who came to wake up the sleeping Doctor. But then, she saw a person with a green clothes and a white hair standing near the Doctor where he was sleeping at. It was Dr. Kal'tsit.
"Oh, Dr. Kal'tsit. Why are you here?" Amiya rise her eyebrow in surprised toward the woman who silently stood still. "Just dropping a coffee for Doctor" Kal'tsit replied before walked away from the sleeping doc and going toward where she stood
"Amiya" she called her. "Yes Dr. Kal'tsit?" she saw the lynx woman approaching her.
"After the next mission is over, I will give you two some day off." Kal'tsit widening her lips toward Amiya, making her caught off guard from the smile she got from the serious woman and making her recoil backward.
"Ah..! I mean, I see!" Amiya try to replied after seeing the person right in front of her unusually smiling. "Alright then. I will see you guys tomorrow morning." Kal'tsit gave the bunny girl farewell before leaving the office and go back to her own laboratory.
Once Amiya left alone with the Doctor, she try to regain her memory that happened few seconds ago. "that was.. surprising," Amiya thought while remembering the sudden smile that planted in Kal'tsit face.
Meanwhile Kal'tsit who left the room and walk alone in the hallway, start to touch her lips with her finger, remembering the moments where she leaned closer for the doctor face. 'I hope that gives you an energy' as she start smiling under her breath from her sly action toward him on his sleep.
