Nicole tapped her communicator, "Go for Branson."
"Nikki, I have a question.", Monica asked.
"You are so beautiful. You could have any man, woman or beast on the colony, yet you chose me. My question is why?", Monica looked up at the Cheron Sun and the faint hue of the Romulan Sun in the sky.
"Why me?", she repeated.
Before Nicole could answer, "I know the human history. I know the history of pigs on Earth and their close resemblance to us, the Tellarite people. I know the ridicule you face by choosing me. I need to know. Am I just another political move to keep your dream of a place for everyone to call home alive or can you love me?", Monica rambled on.
Nicole tried to speak but a tearing up Monica continued, "I changed my appearance to be more humanoid but I did not and could not give up my ears and snout. They are closely linked to the Tellarite brain. Altering them could lead to mental retardation. You can be honest Nicole. I am ready to hear the truth."
Nicole tried to come up with something brilliant and romantic but her only response was, "I love you, Monie."
Nicole did not hear another peep but come home to find the children had gone up to the station to play with Summer once more. She worried that Monicahad suffered another episode. She called out her name.
"Out here.", Monica called from the backyard.
Nicole stepped out on to the porch to see her Monica standing in the grass.
"Wow!", she exclaimed seeing the radiant beauty in red.
"I love you too, Nikki", Monica smiled.
She pulled Nicole into the grass and slowly removed the red baby doll g~string.
