Thank you for your reviews Presea and agarfinkel.
Presa: I think that's who he is anyway.
agrfinkel: Maybe as a bonus.

Day Thirty-Five: Vel
The TV switched over to a new person, a woman. Dressed up in a white women's business suit with a skirt, she certainly gave off an appearance of a well-to-do lady. She adjusted her bottom-framed glasses as she spoke about whatever matter the TV never spelled out. Her black hair was pulled up into a workable pony-tail as well. She definitely gave off the vibe of a serious woman.
"So, old man," the blonde in the bar spoke up. "What do you think of her?"
He offered a laugh as his answer. "Ah, a serious type like her? Nah."
"Have to be the one bringing in the bacon, hm?" the blonde teased him. "Scared of a woman who has her life together? Or maybe it's something else?" She gave a quick look at the other two men. "What about you two?"
"Pass," the bartender answered. "She looks too similar to a friend for a proper judgement."
"It's all the answer I need," she looked over at the young soldier. "And you young man?"
The residual traces of a blush on his cheeks already answered that. "She is plenty pretty."
The red-head had some words of her own. "She does look plenty together, I'll agree. Trusted? Definitely, but I don't think she runs anything."
"Oh?" the blonde piped up. "What makes you think that?"
"I think she's trying to use a serious persona for something else. I dunno, just looks like there's more to it than 'good businesswomen.'"
The TV's picture changed once again...
