Chapter 11
THIS CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT. RATED MATURE.
Kathryn wiped away her tears with her sleeves. She stood at the top of the stairs as she took in the havoc her former best friend had unleashed.
"I AM strong and will move. I am capable of the impossible. Since my family, the press and Starfleet keep saying this, it must be true, right?"
An hour later, she was bathed and feeling refreshed. She put her underwear, Starfleet tee and sweats pants on.
As she walked into the pharmacy, she took a moment to take a few deep breaths. She contemplated asking the pharmacist for help, but thought that might be cowardly. She already had expected too much and needed to get control of her life.
She finally found the birth control aisle and studied the different available forms of contraceptives. The scientist in her knew that they were not all the same. After reading many labels, she finally chose the one called The Unmistaken Pill.
She laughed a hollow laugh as she mentally thought it was a stupid name.
As she was in line she read the box label once more. She was so engrossed that she did not notice the arrival of Lt. Samantha Wildman.
Sam did a double take from Janeway's back. Sam could have sworn it was the same red hair that was the admiral's. She noticed the box and what it said. She dropped the birthday hair brush she had planned on buying for the new sehlat she had bought her daughter. Her husband had said that Naomi could have a pet as a welcome back home present. The last thoughts she had as she was running out of the pharmacy been to call the former Emergency Medical Hologram.
