When Kalo had headed towards the casino, Aerena stopped in her room for a minute. She sat on the bed and looked up at the ocean, watching the sea creatures swim past. It was a good feeling, just sitting there. Nothing that needed to be done, nothing to worry about. And it was so comfortable. It was funny, she had never thought of spending her earnings at a place like this before. She just worked. And worked. It was her life. When she wasn't doing a job, she was sleeping or eating or working on her ship. Or trying to get a job. She never thought of anything else. It was good to just relax, especially now. She needed to catch up with herself. With the galaxy. It was so weird, being in the future. It was so hard to believe. Yet she knew it was true. Not long ago, she had been on a smuggling run in 13 BBY. Now it was 1,023 ABY. Well, she'd catch up here. Get used to the idea of living in the future. Which was the present, now.
Well, Kalo was waiting for her. She got up and walked over to the mirror. She felt so awkward in the dress. She had known the clothes she had wouldn't do for a place like this, and had bought a couple of dresses. She was wearing the one that she hated the least- a black dress that went down to her knees. It was sleeveless and the bottom half was loose. It was somewhat plain, yet it was expensive. And it didn't look bad, she thought. She still didn't like it, though. Dresses made her feel awkward, impeded and venerable. Oh, well. It didn't matter, not here. It wasn't like there was someone here that would try to kill her, and she would have to run or fight. This was vacation from all that. She let her hair out of its usual braid and left the room, hurrying towards the elevator. She entered to see Kalo standing by his new droid, shaking a man's hand.
