“Why do I get the feeling you’re lying to me?” Zayne says as he looks over at me from the co-pilot’s seat.

“Because you’re a distrusting worry-barnacle,” I say without looking at him. I see the data blinking on the holoscreen, showing all the information before we begin our descent.

“Just a few weeks ago you were lecturing me about being in a hurry,” he says, folding his arms over his chest. “We just stopped for supplies eight days ago. We’re set. So why are you so determined we go a full day out of the way to go to Laziria?”

“This isn’t your ship, Zayne,” I bite. “Just because you can fly it doesn’t mean you’re the boss. My ship. My schedule.”

He looks at me like I just slapped him. I know I was just way, way too harsh, but I’m just so slam sick of having to explain myself to him. To anyone.

Hazards of having people you care about.

“I would think you wouldn’t complain too much about stretching your legs and getting fresh food,” Reena calls him out.

I look at her with surprise and appreciation. She so rarely takes my side or has my back.

Zayne glares at the both of us but looks back out the view window, at the blue and green planet we’re approaching.

Laziria is one of those planets I could never, ever have afforded to move us all to. It’s the largest planet in the P sector. With not a trace of Neron on it, it’s population is surprisingly under control, considering it has a variety of terrain, the vast majority of the planet is livable, and it has fantastic natural resources.

Five families own most of the planet because they’ve inhabited it for eight centuries, long before Dominion came and started taking over the galaxy. They’ve kept the prices sky high, so very few can actually afford to live on the planet. They take care of their workforce, have specific housing for them, so the elite rich don’t have to do the grunt jobs. They educate their citizens, so they can keep rising, keep improving their planet.

It’s a beautiful planet filled with smart, educated people.

But they’re all know-it-alls with their noses turned up at everything.

We set down at the busy Airspace and an attendant is waiting for us as soon as the hatch opens.

I pay the landing fee—a whopping three thousand credits, just to land here and leave the ship for a full day—and then he calls a transporter to pick us up and take us into town.

“I need a full day here,” I say as the four of us slip into the luxurious transporter. The seats are soft—some kind of leather. There are complimentary drinks in a refrigerated cooler in the center of the seats. Cool air is filling the space. The windows are crystal clean and clear, giving us a view of the pristine buildings that surround us, and the mountains beyond. “Dad, you and Zayne can go do whatever you like in town, but I need some time to myself.
