SMILE

//Smile. Damned tight collar. Damned reception line. //

“Please to meet you.” //Shake hands don’t flinch. Gorn hands hard as horn. //

“Glad y’all could make it.” //Bow; just enough to show deference. Tellarites are sticklers for protocol. My feet are killing me!  Smile. //

//The Argelian ambassador and her husband. / “A drink? Maybe later. ” //I’m parched. Later, Len, yeah, later.

//Look who just rolled in, the ambassador from Terra IV.  Is she wearing her suite’s curtains? // “You look lovely. Is that new?” //Kiss hand. Smile. //

Spock shoots me an eyebrow.

//Ah, the life of a diplomat’s spouse.//
